Do we need more cornerbacks?

We dont have many corners on the team, but there is a reason for that. First, like others have already said, Williams has great cover safeties and LB's. That offers a way to take the pressure off the CB when injuries happen and a backup needs help. Second, Williams uses schemes that often brings pressure from the secondary on obvious passing downs. This means a bad CB (like Jimoh) can be as hero as a great tackler when he is put in a blitzing situation. Ive seen Williams drop Washington and Marshall off the line to cover WR's. I've even seen Williams drop Griffin and Salavea into coverage off the DL.

On the surface it looks bad. It's just not as bad as it looks.
