less SH (as low as you can get it while getting SV to 8+), FS (as low as you can get it while getting CD to at least 6), SO (as low as you can gte it while getting SDC to 8+) and the extra SA all together. more SDC (8+), SB (8+), CD (6+). drop the INT% piece, and grab either another PD% piece or another SA piece. i would also like to see more strength.

I agree most of this, except I don't think he needs more SDC. My findings are that SDC is not really worth the significant investment once you reach higher levels. Better off putting those points straight into attributes (strength etc. as mentioned before).
Strength plays a bigger role than you would think in PD rolls, especially against bigger possession type receivers. Taking my strength from 48 to 61 dramatically improved my CB's performance vs. the pass.

If you are going to use Sticky Hands/INT% you will want to target at least 61, probably 68 catching; otherwise it won't be worth it. Obviously you have gone the opposite route, so it would be a waste of SP/AEQ to take those options. I am in favor of the second PD% piece, unless you need to go SA instead for some reason (not enough BT, need the SA, etc).

well i put AEQ in SDC, so i only have to invest 2 SPs to get it to 8, or 4 SPs for 9. or heck, with the new custom EQ upgrades you dont need to put a single point in it to get it to 10 (6 from AEQ, 1 from custom-tree, 3 from custom-upgrades). the speed agility boost it gives may be marginal, but i still like it for, if nothing else, the PD score boost.

but yeah, strength, i think, plays much more a factor than most people think it does. and since CBs are the lightest dots on the field, they can still get DVG and have it trigger on everyone.

For man coverage CB arch 49 str is ok as long as you have the 68 strength and DvG.

overall not bad, without knowing how you built, i would just say the bulk of your stats are leaning slightly on the lower side for as little points as you have for sa's.
