I think you are underestimating the powers of the Shichibukai. Hancock is a skilled haki user, and obviously above Vice-admiral level, (demonstrated when she totally blew off and man handled Momonga)she takes out pacifistas with a single kick, and can petrify whole armies with her df. I agree that Jimbe is weak on land, but if he is in the water, he would stomp just about everybody with the exception of the admirals. Kuma, despite being a cyborg, is nearly indestructible. Also, his df is one of the few forces on earth that can compete with Kisaru. (they both move at the speed of light. Finally, Crocodile may be weak against Haki users, but most of the Marines aren't. he would stomp them.  Put all these people together and you have a force to be reckoned with.
