For man / zone / combo CBs I believe strength is grey in all of them meaning you dont need it at all? Just go for tackling? I've been gone a year or so, be easy on me.

you may be right. I think Hard Hitters have strength as a Major, and I know Special Teamers have it as a Minor, but is it really needed for man, zone, or combo? I do not think it would be important since if your tackling is good you can set to Wrap Up and still bring guys down.

yeah, I made a Hard Hitter for giggles (have never had one before), and it does have strength as a Major, along with Speed; Vision; and Tackling. Minors are Agility; Jumping; Stamina; and Confidence.

I do not know what Combo or Zone CBs have for Major or Minor attributes.

No.

No what? Looking at the OP what are you saying no to?

is it:

or

Just go for tackling?

actually, no. most CBs should wind up with about 60 or so strength. it helps tackling, helps breaking blocks, and bort has said it is included in your PD roll when both the CB and the WR are interacting with the ball at the same time. man specs dont get ALGs on strength so it has to be worked on last, but it should probably be addressed. if you wind up not being able to? not the end of the world, but you should if you can.

ok

No, strength is not obsolete.

Most confusing answer of all time imo...

If u like PDs, and getting around WRs as they block u , STR is a need. Although it gains no ALG from the man arch.

Yeah agreeing with this. It is especially important against possession receivers and appears to play a significant role in pass deflecting. Some sort of "getting position" effect going on methinks. I added a cap to my CB's strength and he started playing noticeably better.
