The problem is that most safeties that have that both the hard hitting ability and the durability to get away with it can't cover. Pollard, for example, is a 225 pound safety that ran a 4.57 seven years ago. The only way he's covering any WR or any good TE in the NFL is by either jamming them forever or by hitting them hard enough to make them drop the ball. Not a recipe for success in today's NFL.
Not a recipe? Donte Whitner and Bernard Pollard are playing in the playoffs.
We can't rely on two cover safeties to mask poor CB play.
