I'm on a 5 game winning streak online. I have confidence in the players I just named getting open quick. The Oline doesn't mess up every play. Especially if your only sending 4. And if your sending more I'll find the blitz. Hopefully

I run a base 4-3 against 2 WR sets.

Against 3 and 4 WR sets I run dime most of the time, with either DRC or Hall matched up against a tight end wth safety support over the top.

Ah I see, I don't think I could justify that much cap room spent on two guys who aren't even apart of the base def

I'm not too concerned about it because I'm obsessed with cap management.

Unless I absolutely need a 1st round guy in the draft, I always trade down because later round guys are much cheaper.

In FA I'll only break the bank for corners (Shocking right? I'm obsessed with having enough cover guys), and an elite MLB if available (which is rare).

Hey to each his own...Im tinkering with a 4-2-5 base, but finding a solid weak side safety opposite Landry has been difficult

Interesting, did you move Orakpo and Kerrigan to DE on the 4 man front?

And if I'm not mistaken the 4-2-5 usually has the MLB and ROLB on the field right?

Yea I have Kerrigan at LE and Orakpo at RE, with Fletcher and McIntosh on the field right now (yes its the MLB/ROLB), but I also have Kawika Mitchell who I'm thinking about trying out there with Fletcher because McIntosh is kind of a little girl.
