toss up, personal preference. first step if speed is high, shed blocks if agility is high.

I prefer FS to SB for a DE.

SB is king for a DT.

But, with FS paired JTS VA, it looks like you get fired out of a cannon on some plays.

Well, one is probably better than the other ... but in the end I think most DE builds need both. Once I hit 56 and have my two AEQs fully upgraded, my end will be at 10/10.

Ultimately you want both to be at 10 but do FS first as it helps your DE fire off the line more. Since GLB blocking schemes seems to be messed around with once a season it's no reason to pile that up early. But don't neglect it at all either. Get FS up to 7, then SB to 5, then FS to 10, then SB to 10

Oh, don't forget TV, that is king for DE

I have 2 DEs with shed block at 15+, it used to be pretty good, now with the new mechanics its not that great, ,but FS became the best VA suddenly with the change to it a season or so ago...
