We'd be wasting the gold we found with Awuzie. He's one of the best in the league as a zone corner, but not so great in tight man.
If we're being literal, our defense is a 4-2-5 even in it's base form.
No defense in the NFL relies on man coverage. The NFL is dominated by zone. It is uncommon to find a team that even plays 50% man. The Vikings play a lot of zone with some man mixed in.
