Ummmm.... they did do that. Led Zeppelin I is practically all covers played almost precisely how the blues bands played them. OK, on Led Zep II they at least changed the lyrics of You Need Love to Whole Lotta Love, but it's the same damn song. Their rip off of Willie dixon wasn't even close to subtle.
By Zep III, they had pretty much dropped the cover songs, but those first two albums aren't even close. Those are covers.
What songs off of II are "covers?"
I might be ignorant to the facts, but it seems like at least most of the songs off of that album are original.

Lyrically? Whole lotta love.
Don't believe me?

Page's riff was Page's riff. It was there before anything else. I just thought, 'well, what am I going to sing?' That was it, a nick. Now happily paid for. At the time, there was a lot of conversation about what to do. It was decided that it was so far away in time and influence that ... well, you only get caught when you're successful. That's the game.
Robert Plant
The Lemon Song borrowed heavily from Howlin' Wolf.
Obviously, Bring it on Home is a Willie Dixon record, originally by Sonny Boy Williamson on Chess.
I think the balance of II is fairly original. Nothing egregious, anyway.
