i don't know that they value coverage more than tackling from the LBs. i think they want both, our LBs have always been good tacklers. i think they may value coverage guys over guys that are going to be able to mix it up with o-linemen. also, it is well known that they want cbs that can cover both the run and pass and have passed on guys who were good coverage cbs but lacked run coverage skills. i get what you are saying though. and on average i think having a faster defense all around will pay dividends. as long as they swarm and are in position to make plays they will be effective. speed kills in the nfl.
