How do builds differ between a FS and a SS? My very first player was a FS but I haven't made any Safeties since then.

FS- have more speed and coverage, but have a weak tackle comparete if SS.
SS- More Vision and Tackling but less Speed Agility and Coverage.

FS should be like a CB on meth and SS should be like a CB with less agility focus on lots of steroids.

depends on the team you're on, depends on what direction you want to take your player.

I disagree but not saying your wrong. I think really the only difference is a SS should be built like a LB in GLB. A FS should be built like a CB but with more strength/tackling

I would make a FS with 20-25 more speed than a CB and a SS with at least 15-20 more. FS and SS are much more similar to each other than to CBs in GLB.

I do agree that you'll definitely want less agility than a corner, though. But, IMO, you want 120+ speed and 80+ vision for either safety position if you're going to be playing in coverage.

SS - more tackling / str
FS - more jumping / catching (a little; don't go overboard)

same: 78 spd - 74 agi (or 68+EQ) - 74 vision.

Sa's:
same: SuperVision, CD to 9. Some Swat Ball and some FS.
SS - Closing Speed to 9.
FS - SDC if your DC uses Man2man.

imho.
