Warrior General Games

CBs are one of the funnest things to build because there are a lot of directions to go and a lot of things you can get away with.

In today's game, Lomas Walker had...

A Knocked Loose ball...

A Deflection on a ball who was not thrown to his man (but rather to a TE whom he adjusted to)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=815100&pbp_id=2971493

His lone tackle was on a 3rd down pitch where he saved the first down

And here is his 3rd PD on the day:

So while it isn't a definitive proof of anything, week 1 of this season Lomas got 3 PDs though his receiver was only targetted twice, allowing 0 catches and even coming up with a tackle vs the run.

not all cb's start off the line....

You can get away with 87 speed in USA Pro imo. All depends on your other attributes.

So I'm almost ready?

Ya, in like 10-12 levels you'll be ready . Nice slowbuild on a CB though imo.

also SDC. SDC can really make up for a lot of ground in the speed game.

100 Speed only will never be a great corner. High Agility and 90-95 Speed will make a great 3rd Corner or Dime Corner however

what do you propose, then? And why?

Many of the best S1 corners in the game opened their builds just before the season.

The highest speed was 96.

S1 corners aren't very efficiently built
As the game progresses, higher speed will be required
as of now, 90-95 is good with heavy SDC investment
assuming builds become better and better, 100 should become a new minimum to protect against deep passes

I think 95-100 is going to be the new norm.
