Assuming Kwon is NOT Coming Back

Just wondering if 4-2-5 will be the base

I think it will and kind of already is since 11 personnel is probably played more than any other personnel group in the NFL now. And I think you can do it because with CJGJ at Slot and Maye/Mathieu at Safety you can still stop the run in a 4-2-5 with Davis and Werner at LB. As you alluded to, it's probably why Know is not a big priority. He really fits better as a WIL in a 4-3 defense when he can stay clean and has room to run in space. Werner is better if your LBs aren't always clean. So, Kwon would be a luxury for certain looks. I think they would like to have him back, but it's going to have to be at the price of a guy who plays a role, not a full time starter.
