Now wait... don't freak out. I know they were active and made moves but all the moves were to get guys that fit the zone scheme that Lou wants to run. If the zone fails, there is a lack of man cover corners in the secondary.

If the zone works, no worries but this should be a concern especially against the higher tier QBs in the league that can pick zones apart.

Murdock, this was my initial thought during free agency.  They brought in all these player especially DB's who are familiar and excel in zone defense.  What happens if that defense fails this year and Lou's ass is kicked out the door mid season?  What happens if Zac's staff is fired at the end of the season?  

You really don't have any personnel on defense that allows you to play any man to man defense.  So you're stuck playing zone until you can bring in different players in free agency again.
