I do okay in the sack department, but I have a metric crap ton of hurries. I have 71 hurries to 15 sacks. I was wondering if there is anything I can do build-wise, to turn those hurries into sacks or if it's just "one of those things"? Any advice appreciated.

Thanks

More strength would help you break blocks quicker and more vision would help you get a better jump on the snap. Assuming you are MT'ing both and plan to MT them as long as you can, I would cap strength at 68 and then cap vision at 68; or simultaneously cap them there. Otherwise, at a quick glance this looks like a solid build. Although, I would not add any more SAs and I'm not sure Bull Rusher is a good VA for a DE w/ little str. Pass rusher or Technique Man are probably better suited for his skills. You can reset VA's in the offseason. May also want to consider the attribute boosting VAs first.

Although, I am no expert and only hope that someone more experienced will verify that I'm not a moron.

Yeah, at the end of the season I think I'm going to change out the bull rusher for technique man. I wasn't too sure about VAs when I started added them. As far as SAs go, I only have 1 in the pass rusher abilities because of my equipment bonus. I haven't actually put any SPs into SAs. Thanks for the input on the strength and vision. Right now I'm MTing stamina, speed, strength and agility
