He helps our run defense a ton at SS (It was huge when we pulled Berry back and then DJ and Allen got hurt, our run defense turned to shit)
He is better in coverage in the box
He can blitz when he's in the box

He has improved a lot playing deep but he's still not there yet.

To elaborate a little further on this point I was never in favor of taking Berry out of the box.

He is truly Elite there but honestly I think with another season under his belt he's going to be elite anywhere on the field
