We are a two high defense meaning both safeties are more often than not covering half a field. A Seattle type team that plays a lot of single high man, or cover three, it makes more sense but that's not the scheme we run.
I agree and disagree. We played a crap load more double high safety this season than last year because Nelson was able to cover a lot of ground and read the play much better than Williams can. This year we went a lot more double high to try to counter the safeties deficits.
And if you give me a top S prospect as a defensive coordinator, i surely will be able to find a way to gameplay him to get his hands on the ball. I don't think what we are doing now will have much factoring into this because I am also not positive that the team or origination feels that these two coordinators, and head coach for that matter, will factor in really much long into the long term plans.
