I run dollar 3-2 cover 4 drop and mix db fire blitz but the run always gets me, and don't get to much pressure and that's due to only a 3 player rush. I like to run zone.

With that team you have a mix of different kind of players. You have press corners and non-press corners. Man corners and zone corners....

Your SubLBs include a MLB which isn't great because they don't animate.

Adams in the middle is good but your DEs aren't that strong against the run (you use your OLBs in dollar as edge rushers). In dollar you are using 8 DBs....so Chinn, Sean T , Gilmore, Slay, PolaMao, Warner (SubLBs), Huafanga, St Juste. I don't think that's good enough to stop the run. Also Gilmore is a man corner, so is Deion. If Hufanga is on the field he isn't good enough against the top receivers.

Your best bet is probably some match coverage. 

What zone adjustments do you make? What do you set your zone drops to?

Hufanga never sees the field. You forgot about Dieon when mentioning my DB's. I base align and press on the field for cover 4 drop. I but ball in air to play ball. And I put options on conservative. What corners do you think I should get?

I really like the Ravens defensive playbook. Lots of zone blitzes in there, and they shred. Particularly the Nickel 3-3 Wide and Dime 1-4-6 formations.
