Probably going to retire him after preseason unless I see a drastic change in how he performs.
I just don't like wasting my flex for a guy that gets 1 tackle and 2 PD's a game, and gives huge cushions on curl routes playing close aggressive. CB's in the sim are pretty suck.

He's got about 75 after you count in VAs, which is more than most at that level.

MY CB at his level is probably better than 90+% of CB's at his level, there is nothing wrong with the build. The sim is retarded when it comes to pass defense in general, therefore if I don't see improvement in the preseason, he will be retired or just wont boost for season 9, then retire

if you would have put 2 equipment pieces into agility instead of speed,and used the points that you used to bring catching and jumping to the softcap into Shutdown Coverage instead,your corner would have been much better off.
CB's in this game are fine if you know how to build them right.

Your Corner Back is premium built. Don't be disappointed he isn't doing well. All you are missing is a few Key S.A's to make him a beast. You should NOT retire that corner. Corner's are about their S.A's "almost"as much as their over all build.
How about before you retire, get the super vision up to like 10. Then if he still sucks, retire him.

I know the build is good, but 'm not spending another dime on this game again, so I have to maximize my flex I have left.
Watching my CB do nothing all the time isn't fun, so he would be the first player I axe.

Yes the build is good. only good. It's not elite. you need the S.A's.

+1 SPD/AGI shouldn't be so far apart. then u just need more SA's.

Can you post an update on his build? Also, don't be worried about only getting 1 tackle and 2 PDs a game. That should be your goal. Being a cb isn't about huge stats, it's about making sure the other guy isn't getting huge stats.

Exactly, why would you retire your guy, when he is shutting down the opposition which is why you don't have much stats.

Because it's not fun to watch a guy do nothing. I'm not giving this game any more $, as it is run by idiots, so I have to use my flex wisely and in ways that I see as "fun".

You want stats? You're not building him right. You have to understand that. But go ahead and retire him before you're even finished with the build. Way to make a guide for the noobs to follow, then completely give up on them.
Your corner is average. EVERYONE builds like that. That is a completely average cookie cutter corner back. You're not teaching anyone anything by giving up now. The S.A's and other certain minors need to be capped and upped. you don't have them. You will continue to do nothing until you get the s.a's and the minors, and the right v.a's Everyone has a corner that looks like that. it's what you do from there that will set him apart from the rest. It just looks to me like you don't know, and you are giving up. Do you want to be known as a quitter?
Don't call the people who run this game idiots because you don't know what you're doing.
You retire that corner, I will lose all respect for you.

If anything. See if you can transfer that corner to my account. I will pay the flex for him. I will continue on the tradition of this guide.
