ya, that's it. but they'll work out of 5,6 or more DB formations. I expect they will use Berry & Demps to blitz as well as Houston and the occasional Hali blitz.

Here's an interesting article that talks about NFL defensive trends with lots of usage stats;

Quoted from the article;
The Jets
Easily the biggest outlier across the entire league is the
Jets heavy usage of seven or more defensive backs. They go with seven backs on 17% of their plays, which is 15 percentage points higher than the next closest team. In fact, of the 250 snaps where seven or more defensive backs were on the field across the entire NFL in 2011, the Jets were responsible for 169 (68%). Although they used the 2-2-7 on a half dozen snaps, the Jets’ favorite seven-defensive-back formation was the 1-3-7. Only four teams had six or more defensive backs on the field more than the Jets in 2011.
