We’ll probably pursue more physical larger DBs that play the run and are good in zone (like the DB we just got from UL) verse the quick twitch athletes that we’re use to at CB like Peterson, Stingley etc.
So basically you are saying we will recruit players over 6' just like peterson and stingley are?

I do not know enough Xs and Os to know if this is a good or bad thing, but I do know that if you give Bryce Young and Bama receivers easy 5 yard completions, they will take that all day long and kill you. You have to contest the catch with some of these elite WRs. You may lose and get burned, but if you do not have CBs that run with WRs one on one, they will take the top off you every game. Landry was a enforcer safety, not a CB. If we do not have quick twitch athletes at CB, we are screwed.
Look at what happened to UGA in the SEC Championship game. They play a lot of zone coverage like you are suggesting and a health Bama took the top off that defense.
