Trying to decide the best way to boost my DT...Which is better, taking Shed block from 7 to 9, or increasing speed from 79 to 82?

well they accomplish two different things. So if 79 speed isn't enough to get to the QB, but you consistently beat your blocker, than go that way. OTOH if you get to the QB much of the time, shed blocks is better. I haven't played with a DT with 79 speed so I can't really tell you whether it's enough or not.

Shed to 9 is probably a bigger difference in overall performance.

Yeah, its hard to know what to do, my DT won EEPRO sack and hurry award last season, but I would like to turn some of those 54 hurries into more sacks, speed usually does that...but I also know shed block will lower the block time.

My greediness for physical abilities says move speed up to 82, but I am thinking it maybe more logical to go to 9 shed block...tough decision.

My DT only has 7 shed so I can't really tell you what 9 looks like. Shouldn't you be able to go to 9 on shed and still bump speed up 1?

Yes, thats what I will do...but was really trying to find out if going from 7 shed block to 9 was significant or not.

Well in the end, it couldn't hurt right?

I vote for shed blocks. But I love shed blocks. So I am not saying this based on facts, but just opinions and watching the sim.

I am going shed block to 9 and speed to 80.
