Moderate Success. Just wish I had him set at power tackling more of his career

Can you share his build ?

I'm trying the same with my DE, so any help would be appreciated.

Interesting, I assumed you had more jumping considering all the PDs you got.

Did you get a lot of diving tackles too or just the PDs ?

Interesting, thanks for sharing. How important to his deflections would you rate the investment in Vision?

Some other ideas from other agents doing similar builds is less speed. Thought is that a dot that could stand their ground will have more time to "see" the pass and deflect it. This reduces last minute rips/spins and other BB moves that tend to take you out of position. I also know of guys that went everywhere rom the 1 cap to 70 (i think was the highest). Many stopped around 60. Pretty much most noted a very low number if any missed diving tackles.

Right now, I believe there are a spattering of PD DL dots in the WL and throughout the Pro's. There are also a few teams with DL built around the PD concept.

There were a lot of diving tackles but Ive had alot of diving tackles on all my DT. I never really compared to see if they were much higher or lower. Seems like this guy missed few diving tackles but he was set at wrap up most of his career because of all the missed diving tackles my other DT were having.

The guy was set up to deflect passes and one season he had 21 and the next he had 6 and than for some reason he became a tackling machine like no DT i have ever had. I dont pay much attention so I am not sure if that was a league wide trend or not.
