How to make it so WRs are always covered by CBs?

Title says all. Just started a new Jets franchise and traded for Vontae Davis and Devin McCourty and I'm mad to find out that even with my custom gameplan (which is ALL nickel and dime) has LBs covering WRs.......help!

Try the defensive assignment option in the coaching options. I haven't tinkered with it but that may help you fix your problem. If I remember right you can choose to put certain defenders on certain receivers.

That wouldn't work, because the game is making my LBs my Nickel and Dime CBs...

Oh. Sorry about that. Check your depth chart and see those linebackers are assigned to the 3-5 roster spots for CBs. If nobody is assigned to them then put the other corners in there. If that doesn't work the only thing I can think of is to pick the play from the playbook and then sub in the corners for that formation. I think once they get subbed in they stay in even if you use your gameplan the rest of the game.

I hope this helps I've never heard of your linebackers playing the nickle and dime CBs so this is the first time I've heard of this problem.

Pretty weird that ur lbs are playing in ur dine package

Anyways best way to get the best coverage if u have a number of good Dbs is to go into coaching options/ defensive assignments at the beginning of every game and set ur corners on each receiver based on mcv, speed, and size.
I would set them on all of their receivers and tight ends so u don't end up with anymore lbs and wr

This will only apply when u call man coverage if u call zone the normal package will still show up on the field.

I noticed the other night in my first defensive play that the game had put Hawthorne in instead of Tatupu.

Also noticed AAron Curry covering WRs that I have specified my CBs cover. Have a feeling it's a glitch that hasn't been picked up.
