5% Break Block and 5% Intercept for a SS ?

130k which is the most expensive I have seen.

Pity your not an LB. I don't know the answer to this. If you where an FS, I'd consider it, but an SS...? Hmm.

Someone with a better understanding needs to come and answer this.

Personally I wouldn't, break block isn't as important for an SS unless you are a hard hitter. The only reason I can see this as a useful piece is for the intercept chance, but you'll find others with that.

Break Block isn't really for hard hitters. Actually, i think it'd be more useful for coverage SSs who are a little low in strength and don't want to get pancaked. Lots of teams use their SSs close to the line towards the outside and it helps to not get pancaked by the blocking TE or FB and to quickly get around a WR that is blocking on pitches or after a short completion.

However, break block % is the only bonus that is tacked on to either other +% bonuses or SAs. For example, you can have +1 Closing Speed +5% Break Block (one of my SSs has this) or +5% pass deflection +5% Break block but you can never have 2 SAs or an sa and a % other than break block.

I posted my thoughts on the aeq in another thread you started in that safety private forum i think though but just wanted to weight in on break block%

Imo, interception AEQ is not very good.
And break block will not help any SS in any way assuming they have more strength than a WR (retire if you don't lol?)
