Interesting. how are his stats?

He doesn't get many stats at all. He gets thrown at very little...

He's the #2 CB on an average 9-7 SE Asia AA team and usually plays against offenses that are a few levels higher than him.... The #1 CB on the team is the typical 99 speed, 65 agility guy you always see. That guy gets passed on quite a bit.

You'd think that this guy would get burnt deep with a mere 77 speed, but it's only happened a couple times in his career. The speedster CBs on the team (the #1 and #3 guys) get beat deep much more often for whatever reason.

The time when this guy struggles are on the short crossing routes where the WR runs out about 5 yards and then sprints across the middle. Speedsters struggle on that play too but still...

Otherwise his Agility:Speed ratio means he tends to run the route even better than the WR does....

That's the odd thing as the high agility should allow him to keep up with the short quick cut routes, I like the concept though.

He owns WRs on short routes. At least he's consistently in position...

I used to run agility=speed, but when I got to the Pro level the WRs were just too fast....I had to up the speed a bit or get burnt all too often.

The fastest WR this CB has covered (out of guys with open builds) had 1110 speed. He had no problems covering him - weird, huh? It's like the QB read sees good coverage for most of the play and then throws to a different target.

Also, folks sometimes complain that their 100-something WR gets covered/caught from behind by slower defenders. I think this is the perfect case. The sim works in strange ways. Against a 115-speed pro WR I can definitely see problems. But speedster CBs tend to have the same problems so I don't know if it's still a net plus or not. Regardless, this guy isn't pro...
