I'm a decently fast WR w/ 70 speed and about 50 agility, but I have trouble getting separation. I'm trying to decide whether to go the SAs route or to add to strength (I didn't know if that would help).

Vision is about 30.

SAs are:
Possession 2-2-1-0-0
Speed 3-4-3-3-3

im with ya right now. Ive got a lvl 27 WR with 83 speed and 50 agi and cant get any seperation at all.

Trying to decide if i just need more agility or if i should pump SAs.

I would try to move some Speed equipment over to Agility.
This season you may be lacking Acceleration due to your 20-30 Speed to Agility differential.

Yeah, but this was a problem last season as well.

Agility, Vision, Quick Cut, Route Running, First Step.

Heck maybe even confidence. Maybe your guy is being shut down and loses confidence in himself, becoming unable to get open again.

So is strength purely for after the catch? I have a lot of looks to me deflected.

Well if you're talking seperation I dont think strength has much to do with it. It might though. I know it helps fighting for the ball and catching deflections.

Could it be that the corners you face just out level you?

Not typically, and that's what's really frustrating.

Just throwing out ideas here.

Poor stamina? I see you return kicks too, maybe your energy is getting too low in game and you arent playing up to your potential?

Maybe you are getting outjumped for high passes?

Maybe your team throws too many deep balls (low percentage)?

In my opinion with those stats you SHOULD be able to get separation.

Now as you don't :

- Wait for Bort to fix that again
- try moving some eq from speed to AG, to get close to 60-60 and see if it work better (i hope not)
- do the same with vision, move eq from speed to vision.

If nothing work, i suggest all WR join in a big whinning post during the season to ask for a CB nerf
