Does anyone know if they are different rolls. Does it make sense to equip one of each?

I have yet to see gear with INT %, is it something else or have I just been unlucky with what comes up in the shop?

Unlucky. I have it on at least 3 of my coverage CBs.

Interesting.... what about avoid fake % ?
SDC, 2 Deflect %, Int %
or
SDC, 2 Deflect %, Avoid Fake %

Depends on the build. Mine mostly aim for SDC, 1 PD, 2 INT. Though if I don't go for the INT roll, I'll pick up two PD pieces. Regardless, I wouldn't pick up an AF piece.

I must be in a rare mood, because I would disagree with Longhorn here. I choose 1 SDC piece, 1 AF, and then leave the other 2 up to a build preference. but usually 1 deflect ball and then whatever ( super secret sauce) .

not as good as INT%. from what i understand, catch ball only works on tipped passes.

AF would have been a good piece prior to the PF change. Subsequent to that change, CBs with the "normal" levels of Vision and SV rarely suffer from fakes. It might still be a good piece for the odd build that neglects SV or for other positions like LBs who don't have SV and higher Vision and who suffer from lots of Jukes or Head Fakes by the ball carrier, but that doesn't seem very relevant in this thread.

This. But also KLs. Basically Catch Ball works in those instances when the CB has failed his INT roll, but the ball is still in the air and he gets a second shot at it. That would be tipped passes, dropped passes, and knocked loose passes. I think for a build that really goes for the INT, it might be a good idea to grab two INT pieces and one CB piece, but I haven't tried that before, so it's only theoretical. For your normal PD + INT CB, I'd go INT.

I don't agree about AF. I'm keeping records of all the CBs on Indy and I'm about to add fakes to the thrown at stats. So we'll see how much my AF piece helps me

I've seen lots of CBs with AF get faked constantly. Maybe they would be even worse without the gear, but I don't really know how well it works.
For my CB I will probably try 1 deflect piece, 2 INT pieces, and 1 SDC piece.

this is probably what I am going with as well. might go with avoid fake instead of the 2nd INT % piece... we'll see how the sim looks when i get to that point, but for now im planning on 2 INT % pieces.

After back to back successful shopping attempts, I have a 5% int piece and a 5% deflect piece (
). Which one should I upgrade first? I started with an SDC piece early on since it was cheaper to build, and have an avoid fake piece as well. What I'm wondering, is should I sell the avoid fake piece to fully upgrade one of the 2 I just got, and which one would you upgrade first? My catching is still very low since I just started multi-training it so I was thinking the pd would be more useful now. What say you?
