In dallas, demarcus ware and anthony spencer never dropped into coverage according to reports on RR's scheme

That makes me think he will be putting a safety in slot to cover that man, e.g vaccaro

Yep, no differerent that how teams cover Graham. Put an OLB on him and he outruns them.

Put a safety on him and he out muscles him.

Put a CB on him and ... well... just watch highlights of our game against the Falcons and see what Gonzalez did to Greer and P-rob.

I read somewhere that RR dropped LBs into coverage only 18% of the time last year, utilizing the safeties in coverage more.
