Berry is far more valuable to this defense in the role he plays. He fills a variety of roles that would normally take several players to fill. Its great for a defense scheme wise, as it allows them to hide what they are doing a lot better. If we had another player who could do it, im sure he would switch up between deep safety and in the box more often, but we just dont have that player atm.
Right now who would fill his role if he was to move? Abdullah is a possibility, but we simply don't have the linebackers or any one else that could cover his various roles. I think they target a rangey FS before they target someone to fill Berry's role, he simply too good at it.
I know people love the flashy FS types like Earl Thomas, but Chancellor is just as valuable to that defense as Thomas. We have our Chancellor, now we just need to find a step up from Lewis, which would be a lower end starting caliber safety...
