Anyone ever use closing speed on a DT and see any results, atleast for run defense?

Rolled a +3agl, +1closing speed, so i Took it and already upgraded it to +9agility, +4closing speed....

Closing speed won't do anything for you.

*Jumping on the question bandwagon for Closing Speed*

I have a L48 Pass Rush DE that just rolled this piece of AEQ:

Superior Brown Cleats
+3 agility
+1 Closing Speed SA

Does Closing Speed actually work for pass rushing? Anyone know for sure?

Pretty sure Bort said it does not help rushing the passer.

Only works when someone is running with the ball, aka all running plays, anytime QB is past LOS, and any pass play after someone caught the ball..

I'd live with that piece though.

+3 agility alone helps with pass rushing.

The +closing speed can definately help on rushing plays.

I have the same piece on my DT. I'm well aware of the limitations on Closing Speed, but the +3 agility with a sometimes useful SA is too much for me to pass up...until I find something better.
