The reason it was ran against Baltimore was they needed to match Jackson's speed. The reason it wasn't exposed against Baltimore is that the Raven never attacked it with a power running game instead choosing to run more finesse concepts. The gimmick of the Safety at LB was short lived across the league after popping up a bit a few years back. Buchanon has kind of washed out with rumors Arizona wants to move on from him. An occasional sub package isn't bad but trying to play a safety at LB long term won't work because those guys have never had to stack and shed playing the secondary really. There only real engagement with linemen in the secondary is sealing the edge and when they want to seal the edge they will normally cut the offensive linemen. LB's have to use their hands to get off blocks and it something that is often why LB's fail but just hoping a safety can learn it is wishful thinking in most cases.

In terms of Adderly I see they are playing him at CB a bit at the senior bowl. That interests me a bit with versatility wise of CB/S. We can go with a big nickle package, so a 2nd round pick for him I'd be open to.

In fairness, the Chargers got run over by the Patriots, and the Pats are one of the few teams that still carry a FB.  They have a good power game when they need it.  And well, it was the Patriots in the playoffs.  I don't know if there is a defensive concept the Pats haven't wrecked in the playoffs.

I wouldn't like it used anywhere near as much as the Chargers.  However, on obvious passing downs and situations I think it would be good to use.
