So I have Bo and Peppers as my SubLBs. In nickel sets who would you go with at deep (AI controlled) SS. I've been gong with Ted because he's 6'7, 95 zone, 95 spd, 95 POW, etc....

But even in man sets I have to leave him in zone....and his abilities stink. I could go with Troy but he's only 5'10. That's 9" shorter on the back end....  buthe gets 91 man and 97 zone on my team and he also gets acrobat for 1 AP

Also, Stork has balanced under plays ball in air and Troy has aggressive.    

Leaning towards Troy but that height difference is huge...What is your opinion on who to put back there ?

Bro, get GOM C Woodson and put him at SS1.  You can thank me later.  Pay no attention to the overall as I’m sure you know.  He literally plays like a 99 for me there.  That card is winning me games.  And he gets PA and DOZKO for 1ap

I actually moved Bo to deep SS and put 0AP Pick/1AP Deep Out Zone. So far it’s been a very good move for me. He’s been the best deep SS I’ve tried (previously tried Sean Taylor, John Lynch, Ted Hendricks, Calvin Johnson).

If your only choice is going to be Ted or Troy I would definitely use Ted. Troy is just too short with all the tall WR’s.

I couldn't play Ted deep just because of his man coverage
