Curious to know if anyone has any thoughts on blitz awareness as a minor substitute for sprinting on DTs and DEs. For example, if the reaction time is 15-16 points better at responding to a RB getting the ball, that might be more or less equal to a few points in sprinting.

Hypotheticals:
- DTs: 45 sprinting, 65 blitz awareness vs a 48-50 sprinting, 50 blitz awareness.
- DEs: 60 sprinting, 65 blitz awareness vs. 63 sprinting, 50 blitz awareness

Would the biggest difference here be slightly more run-focused vs pass-focused, or is there something else to consider here?

Personally I would take the option with more Blitz Awr because those Sprinting numbers are already good enough and having more won't allow them to catch up with a full speed HB anyway, but the Blitz Awr could help them react to the play faster and stop the HB before he gets past them.

Also, correct me if I'm wrong but the Sprinting option and the Blitz Awr option don't cost the same SP right ? Sprinting option should be more expensive.

Sprinting over 40 really isn't needed for the DL, quickness is far more important. Awareness is so cheap, I would just maxed to whatever the cap is.
