How valuable are corners?

Noting that the Patriots are winning with guys who couldn't start in college and receivers in the secondary, Dan Pompei argues that corners are not all that important.

Sure you have to ahve them, but they don't have to be Champ Bailey's. Your Randall Gay's can handle a zone too. This brings up some questions for the Giants:

1. Should they play less man to man?
2. Man to man is a strenght of Will Allen's. In the zone he's less effective and and he can't catch. And we've all seen him (and every other corner in the league) get torched on occasion in man coverage. Should we trade Allen? What can we get for him?
3. Are Deloatch and Walker good enough?
