Berry is not a free safety.
He's been suspect in pass protection since Day 1.
However, he's a beast in run support.
His college numbers with regard to int's, PD's, etc., were inflated due to the Kiffin Cover 2 zone scheme and his natural athletic ability, but he's not shown an inclination/ability to translate that to the next level.
He's a strong safety. A very good one actually, but he's definitely not an NFL level free safety.
