Re: What position will this athlete be?

I've gotten guys like that and really the best position for them is what everyone keeps saying, weak side DE. That's what he has the skills for anyway, but if you are really hurting at linebacker he could fill the position until you get someone better. I use a small school so it's hard to get big talent. I haven't been able to get a good FB yet, so I've been converting some of my developed power backs with decent blocking to FB.

It looks like this came from an OD. When you sign ATHs in ODs, it tells you his best position when you sign him. IE. it won't say
Michigan signed ***** ATH What's his face
instead it'll say
Michigan signed ***** MLB What's his face

I'd say a 3-4 OLB or a 4-3 DE, like the guy above. His PRC is really low for a MLB. He could also be a SS in a 3-3-5 or a 4-2-5.

Re: What position will this athlete be?

Yeah with the coverage attributes and speed I would put him as a DE or LB. Dont worry about size cause the game does not take that into effect. Whether hes 5'6" 150 lbs or 6'10" 300lbs, it doesnt really matter. I would just put him at the position you need more, but if you are set or equal at both positions, I would prob lean towards a DE.

Re: What position will this athlete be?

I'd say he'll be a subpar safety. He'll probably be a subpar LB too.

What I am getting at is that based on his ratings, I don't think he's going to be any good wherever you put him.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if his highest rating position is CB. a couple of C's for man and zone D brings that position up quick.

I would recruit him and hope he turns out to be a solid outside backer. I wouldn't be surprised in the least if CB was his best position though.

Highest ovr rating and best position are not the same thing.

Re: What position will this athlete be?

I'm with the crowd in that this guy would fall in the MLB crowd. I was thinking smaller tight end until I noticed that B in tackling.
