I don't know if this is going to add to the discussion...

I have a Level 46 SS with the following build:

Strength: 50.74
Speed: 80.24 (+16)
Agility: 60.39 (+6)
Jumping: 34.85
Stamina: 44.76
Vision: 60.96 (+8)
Confidence: 32.07
Tackling: 50.80
Catching: 34.78

Coverage: 4-8-2-2-2
Hard Hit: 3-3-4-4-4 (Custom Equipment Bonus)

VA: Brick Wall, Jackhammer, Power Tackler, Clutch, Track Star (all 5)

This is a Season 1 Player who was originally built to be a solid tackler and hitter. I've been pounding his Coverage Skills for the past 2+ Seasons.

Saw an overwhelming majority of Defensive Snaps through Season 5, have been splitting time with another mid-40's SS who's more Coverage Built for the last 1+ Seasons.

417 Total Tackles, only 17 Missed Tackles. I vary my Tackling and Coverage Styles based on Opponents/Matchups, but mostly play Balanced/Wrap Up and Medium/Semi-Agressive

Maybe you all can find some helpful info from this?

Good Luck!

Whats everyone's feeling on the Red Zone VA? Is this skill more for line backers and line men over the defensive backs?

My VAs are:
9 Genius
9 quick

I will get them to 10 each and Im not sure about the next. Im an SS so zone specialist may not be worth it. Either Red zone or a tackling buff.

What you've done isn't exactly accurate, at least by using my player as an example. I have 0 points in sure tackler currently as I already maxed zone specialist and am working on maxing track star before moving to sure tackler.

...better max Quick and Football Genius first i.m.h.o. - that's what I'm trying to say.

My personal plan for my FS is Zone Specialist, Quick, and Genius. To compensate for not putting any points in Track Star put all my equipment in speed. I figure that will make for a player very balanced in the big 3 with speed in the 90-100 range, agility just about 80, and vision just about 80 without adding the zone specialist bonuses.
