That's your 'subpackage'.
You rotate your 3rd LBer and 3rd safety.
When it's a clear run situation, you bring out a heavy backer to play the Sam, move Bolton to Mike and Gay to Will.
If it's clear pass, you go into a Dime and you have 4 CBs w/ 2 Ss
But when you're in that mushy middle, especially on early downs between the 20s, you put Gay at the Sam, Bolton at the Mike and at your Will you have a guy who is strong in run support, capable of blitzing and viable in coverage (again, for a LBer).
And yeah, I just don't see why Collins can't be exactly that guy.
Don't think of him being utilized as a safety - that's really not how we'd be using him. He'd be effectively a hybrid Will 'backer.
