I've had pretty decent success with all other positions, but my WR continues to underperform. Any thoughts would be much appreciated. Thanks.

You may be suffering the same thing as me.. Your QB may not be well enough built. I can't think of another position (TE to some extent) that is so dependent on a second position to perform. If your Qb doesn't have a proper build it will show up in your game play.

Hows your morale? Jumping might be low, probably don't need to add anything to blocking, that deals more with pass blocking. Strength is run blocking. Maybe train confidence and next level up put 3 into jumping then 1 pt in route run

Well he looks pretty decent , but I would say vision would help you out , jumping seems fine by now .

I might save any SP I get for now if I were you. I think I will for the time being.

With a strong build like that and hitting a few caps in the key areas, I think the smartest thing would be to wait and see what Bort announces he's going to tweak during the off-season.

The way he's talking, vision and agility will be more important. Getting either to the next cap might not be necessary (you might even have enough in both right now), but it could be something to consider bumping.

Unless you've got 0 equipment in speed, you've hit the 3 for 1 cap in that attribute. I like to pump that when I can't think of anything else, but the 3 for 1 makes it a harder thing to rationalize when you can literally increase something 3 times as much.

Thanks for the help guys. I've bought my 4th piece of Custom Equipment to try to test out a few things.

I don't think its the QB -- when I look at the replays, my guy isn't obviously open a lot and the PD's have been killing me.

My best guess is that I'm caught in the no man's land between speedster and possession receiver. Not quite enough speed to torch the CB's and not quite enough catching and jumping to go up and fight for the ball.

i think your vision is way to low. i have mine around 43 or so and it did wonders when it came to catching the ball and route running.

I'd say some more stamina might help. I've noticed a few players with disproportionately high stamina that perform very well.
For example, if the CB covering you has 35 stamina and you have 40, you'll have the advantage in the second half.

I'm in the process of getting my jumping to 40, so we shall see how that helps myself in PD's. If it is successful I will let everyone know

Yeah, that sounds like an interesting idea.

Additionally, you'll be in on more plays when CB1 and CB2 sub out, giving you matchups against the nickel and dime CBs.
