You don’t combat 4 wide sets with safeties.
There isn’t a defense out there who doesn’t use 3 CBS at least against 4 wide sets.
Maybe but that's not a 4-2-5, that's a nickel or dime package. Base 4-2-5 utilizes 3 safeties. Now you can work all kinds of things in, like replacing a LB with a safety, and the rover with a cb.
But base 4-2-5 is a sam and will linebackers, 4dl, a FS over the top, 2 CBs on the outside, a strong safety that plays down like a wide outside linebacker and a rover on the weak side.
Can pkay with it a hundred different ways though. Here is a good article that explains it.

With the safeties we are recruiting it sounds like this is what recruiting towards. Sage looks like he can be that Rover style of safety.
