Pure defenders will not make Einstein.

Any robot that can attempt to shoot 3 discs minimum during autonomous and hang for a minimum of 10 points, can play defense and/or add a mechanism to block full-court shots. Robots who shoot 3 discs and can hang for 10 are dime a dozen, and in divisions where there are approximately 100 per, you should easily find 24 that meet the minimum criteria.
I'm still not sold on pure Full Court shooters for Einstein.
If a robot is solely used to block a FCS, then although that particular robot is no longer focused on scoring, neither is the FCS who becomes ineffective.

Manueverable and quick robots that can also go under the pyramid is key to this game in avoiding defense. The pyramid is the best pick and roll partner you can have.
