Looking to trade for one of them and would appreciate some advice. One is fast, high agility and vision. But low tackling and no SA. The other is slow, EQ badly applied, but good tackling and good SA.

Should take into account the agents as well. The first has several players but the second agent only has this single player

The 1st is MUCH better. The 2nd should be retired.

Well, I am building a CB similar to the 2nd one, without all the VAs. Mediocre speed, very high agility, abnormally high strength and tackling.

Max out Zone specialist and get on a strictly zone defense team.

Thing is, #2 doesn't have high agility, and even if you wanted higher strength/tackling you should wait until you've finished all your majors.

#2 has invested tons of early points in SPs and on skills in the 20s-30s. Awful build from a strategic standpoint, and unfortunately pretty much unfixable.

Even if you are going to be a zone CB wouldn't it be better to take speed to 68 so you get more return from Z-P VA.

The way I would build a zone CB with 68 speed, 73 agility, and 73 vision and then work on jumping/stamina and strength/tackling.

Let us know how your player works out. I might want to build one of these too if zone defense prove worth it.

What is your natural agility?

The agility is naturally 72.11, so +18 from equipment.

My thinking is that 61 should be plenty of speed, because, as a cover 2 corner, I probably won't have to drop super deep to too often, and when I do, I will dropping back right from the snap so I should have a decent headstart on the receiver. Combined with the boost from ZS and high agility and decent CD and FS(eventually), it should be fine and free up more SPs to focus on vision/tackling/strength.

61 is fucking slow. Id get it to 68. Maybe up to the mid 70s with EQ.
