To me cover ability should be first and foremost and then the ability to help via the running game. Dallas has gone the other direction and it's resulted in a bunch of safeties who can't cover.
I think this goes along with playing safeties that are borderline slow . Have you noticed that most of the safeties are just a step slow ? This whole defense needs speed .
