Re: Recommendations?

Get that 99 Brooks over Miller.

Re: Recommendations?

that's who i'm saving for. do you think he'd help my d more than getting a deion?

Re: Recommendations?

It really depends on what you do defensively. Brooks is all around better than Miller. Deion is an upgrade at corner, but if you do a lot of zone, then the upgrade is minimal. If you run man, it's a bigger upgrade. It all depends on how you think your current corners are doing.

Re: Recommendations?

Other upgrades are a home run threat at WR ( Warrick, Moss, Howard), if you don't throw to the TE a whole lot, I'd sell Rookie Davis and just use Miller, the coins are more useful elsewhere. Also, I'd upgrade MLB if you want a 3-4. I'd go Rookie Dan Morgan and Elite Kuechly. If you are staying in a 3-4, I'd start Suh at DT and sell Richardson for a MLB. No reason to have a 150k guy on your bench with a 10k guy starting at a more important position.

Re: Recommendations?

i was looking at that elite warrick but none of his stats really stood out, is he a solid deep threat receiver? & yeah good point on selling the richardson, i definitely could use an upgrade over claiborne. i don't really mind having te'o at mlb because he's so good in coverage & is elite aj hawk a big upgrade over von? i'm kinda on a budget, i almost bought a 97 brooks earlier too but wasn't sure if he'd drop more than he already has

Re: Recommendations?

Deion is a must if you blitz your safeties a lot. I do and never worry about the guy Deion is covering. He always comes up with picks when the qb throws the deep ball thinking he has an advantage with the one on one coverage. Just my 2 cents.

Not really, 97 or 99 Brooks is the way to go at OLB. Hawk is good, but not great. Warrick is good from the slot or on the outside and seems to play faster than other 94 speed guys. He gets open deep a lot for me.

Re: Recommendations?

99 overall Brooks is a great value at his current price. ~400k. Most of us bought the 97 overall Brooks for more than 2-3 weeks ago. A lot of people are moving him. He's far and away the best OLB in the game.

After that, I'd save for Woodson. It can take a while but it's worth it. The difference in him and any other CB in the game is significant. The gap between him and Deion is greater than the gap between Deion and Elite Bailey.

I'd hang onto your elite Vernon. There isn't a LB in the game that can cover him - including the new 99 Brooks. He's a huge weapon for me. Move him around with motions to figure out what type of coverage you have. If it's man coverage and a safety not named Eric Berry or a LB- you have a very favorable matchup.

What kind of offense do you run? What % do you run versus pass? No huddle?

Two cheap offensive guys I like - Elite Ricky Watters has a nasty set of catch ratings(cth, spc, cit, rte) making him a great third down back. Owen Marecic has an excellent set of blocking rankings. I don't use a fullback much but when I do he's a leader blocker. He is also a force with Heath Miller blocking on my return team.

Your offensive line is setup well for no huddle. Perhaps you could pick up a Rookie Fluker (good stamina ranting) and move the second Joe Thomas inside. Not sure if you are running this though.

I disagree with saving for Woodson. The game will be completely dead by the time you get 3 million coins. And who knows if you will even see a Woodson for sale. They are never up on ps3.

Re: Recommendations?

I agree about the Broooks over Miller comment ... even the 97 Brooks is getting cheaper, and its a marked improvement. I would also consider elite Taylor (ball hawk in zone, and a monster hitter) over your current gold Berry.

One more thing, I have Albert on my left side and Hutch as the RG. I'm run heavy, and these guys kill it. I like playing them in posistion for the sake of awareness ... I run a ton behind Hutch and I'm happy with this setup.
Does Carimi allow sacks much being played at G?

Re: Recommendations?

I'll tell you how I went from quiiting to not getting beat anymore. I bought two derrivk brooks cards and placed one at mlb and one a olb and my defense went off the charts

If you go no huddle with Albert or even run too many plays, he gets worn out and has to be subbed. He isn't worth it. If you get another guard, make it Warmack.

Re: Recommendations?

Too me you can get away with only two top corners. If you filter in gold Bailey elite Claiborne and cason in your other three slots you will be fine and get off cheaper.

Elite Cason is my oter starting corner opposite Deion and i love him. Dont see a need to upgrade him. He can also be had on the cheap from 10 to 15k. Where as the other elite corners go for way more
