40 CBs with tackling in the single digits?
I can understand CBs want to be fast and agile, but what good is it to get to an O player quickly only to get shrugged off because they cannot tackle worth spit.

last season he was targeted 55 times, allowed 21 receptions (he stopped 62% of passes sent his way), 7 PD, 1 INT (for a 39 yard TD).
Speed 69 (with +12 Eq) and Agility 52 means he can get to O players quickly.
Strength 34.95 and Tackling 51 mean that very few escape his grasp when he gets there (only 1 missed tackle all regular season).
Jumping 30 gives him a good shot at deflections even though Catching 19 does not allow many picks (yet...).
Stamina 29 means that he gets 60 plays a game. His speed will get built up a bit (and his blocking as well, since he was built as a ST CB.
Why don't more guys build CBs that can... I don't know... tackle?
