More agility....then a little more speed...then a lot more strength (above 50 at least).........Once you have those, I would add more points to superior vision, get a couple in closing speed, and then boost monster hit as high as you can go.

Your biggest issues are that your speed and agility are extremely low. Cap speed with your next level, and then keep pumping agility for a long time.

After that I would work on strength and jumping, but just speed and agility might take you until level 40 at this point if those aren't your base numbers.

SO just for helping reason then....

I understand the speed part... To keep up...

But how does Agility work for a safety other than trying to avoid blockers??

Does that have a impact on fumbles?? If so how or the logic behind it..

You can change direction and accelerate better

Agility helps you "square off" against on coming traffic. If you don't have very high agility don't expect to make very many crisp tackles. You want to really hit someone square, and agility makes that more possible, more frequently. It's also matched up against the offensive players agility. If they have high agility and you have low agility you will make the tackle, but like to the side and not very well. If you have the same agility as your opponent you will make square tackles a lot more. If you have more agility than who you are trying to tackle, Get ready to tee off baby!

Thanks everyone

so a low agility High strength/ High Tackle/ High Speed would just hit the guy but not wrap up or something?

You probably would get juked out more and when you tackle the guy, not have a good angle and miss more tackles. Agility definitely plays a role in tackling

would you 3rd cap strength or agility first? (assuming speed is already done)

All defensive players love a healthy dose of speed and agility first and foremost. After that depends on what position you are playing and what you want him to do.

For S.S. I think they can wait on vision if you want to get str 3rd capped after speed and agility.
Vision has it's advantages and so does str. but you will be sacrificing one or the other at lower levels.

This is a complete assumption by watching the sims. But I think after a hb runs the ball and a defensive player is going to tackle the hb. All the rolls are checked, and say the defensive players passes the tackling roll and he is going to tackle the hb.

I think after all that's said and done there is yet another roll weighing heavily against both players agility to see if the HB can slip a square tackle a bit, or if the defensive guy is going to make a crisp hit. It might be calculated in the force fumble roll. I think when agility meets it has a lot to do with how hard you hit a guy, and whether or not that guy can slightly slip a "square hit.

For a FS, i'd def get vision up before strength. Especially with a lot of the changes bort has made to pass defense. A lot of them are relying on vision checks. Some high level safeties in heavy zone defenses have been doing really well at swarming to the receiver and causing knocked loose plays. I'm getting a 2 knocked loose plays a game and my FS is still on wrap up tackle most games (depends on the kind of team we're playing)
