I could see a QB having more confidence in throwing to a guy with high catching, which would make him look towards you more. No idea if that happens here, but it would make sense.

^ Iversen, if you want to compare/trade builds send me a PM. I'm a few levels behind you, but it seems like we have the same ideas about a few things here. I have to go for now, but I'd get back to you later.

^ Unfortunately its not my build to share, lets just say catching is twice speed and jumping and confidence are equal to speed and he's the QB's second favorite target.

Don't ya love puzzles

So, either he's getting great CB matchups, or catching has something to do with getting thrown to.

Do the other WRs have good builds?

^ as in "traditional" builds...sure. None of 'em are prefect but they are all pretty good.

Was that a guess on how my build is ?

^ LOL! Not even close you have twice the carrying scouting bar that he does!

GO WOLFPACK

unfortunately, i've got some evidence to the contrary. i signed up for GLB at the start of season 1, didn't really take a liking to it, and came back at the end of season 2 and got addicted since. after i signed up, and left my training on Catching. when i came back, it was over 40, unassisted by equipment. i can't remember my speed/agility/vision/etc, but they were not all that great - had to be in the 20s. since i came back, i focused alot on speed and agility. i signed with a human team, and IMO am the best WR on the team. i've stunk up the joint. to date, my best 3 games have only been mid-30 yard games. watching pbps, the QB doesn't even really look my way a whole lot. the most looks i got was 1 game working out of the slot. lately, i've been trying to work on strength/jumping/vision. i don't have any proof, but i'm thinking jumping is a very overlooked stat. what other positions than WR, CB and to a lesser extent the safeties need jumping nearly as much? none that i can think of... and for it to be an attribute in the game, it's gotta be important for someone.

Yeah but you can use that for how much ?

When you saw that you've been thinking - wow this guy has like 35 at least in carrying , am I right ?

I've never touched it I can admit

So scounting bars really don't tell you much , or is that just me ?

The scouting bars tell you a lot if you know how to read them.

Carrying in WR is strongly affected by speed and agility.

Yeah , just had to make sure you didn't think it was carrying

But as already stated I've already soft capped speed/agility , that's why it's green I guess .

So what does it take to get receiving in the green. I thought 40/40 in vision and catching would do it, but I'm at 39 vision and 41 catching and its still bright yellow. Is there some other skill required to change color?

My CB deflected 2x in one game and the WR's still caught it, so I got 1 PD and 1 Tackle 2x in a single game, kinda odd.. but uh yeah i believe Jumping and Catching have something to do with you being able to catch PD's

Don't really know what it takes to get the scouting bars up , but last time I put SPs in speed both got a little higher as far as I remember .

Vision and catching make the receiving bar go up. However, those probably aren't the only 2 attributes that do so.

Is your 39/41 without equipment?
