Looking for AP Help

https://www.mut.gg/23/lineup-builder/6d4e679d-b77d-4a74-b95d-df5977261131/

Looking for suggestions on AP distribution. Not really looking for any lineup help, at the moment the team is about the best I can afford. 

For AP distribution, the only rule is that Vick must have SFL, Fearless, GS, and Truzz for 4 AP. All of my offensive linemen get SP for 1 AP, but I'm not sure if it's completely necessary on all of them so wanted some feedback on that and to see if I can replace that AP with some abilities on my WRs. 

Defense is fair game. I mostly run Nickel formations. Minkah Fitz is my SubLB, currently running PA and Acro for 1 AP.

I currently run Run n Gun alternate playbook on offense and 3-4 alternate on defense, running Nickel 24 and 3-3-5

Love the detail of this. It really helps! 

To start I'm going to link my lineup to show you what I run with a similar (Steelers based team) - https://www.mut.gg/23/lineup-builder/1f77a695-0364-4580-91e4-c5c9692d8066/ - 
I'm in Colts O and 46 D for reference.

Offense
WR: It seems like you're more of a runner but if you do want to pass having Short In/Out Elite on your WR's is very helpful. I'd start by throwing 0 AP SIE on Pickens or if you want to keep Honorary Lineman, put 1 AP SIE and HL for 1 AP total. 

OL: SP is definitely VERY valuable and if you can afford it on O without having to make any big sacrifices, I'd say to keep it. It’s probably most important on your Tackles if you do want to take it off someone.

Defense
DB's: If you're mostly running Zone, Deep Out KO, and PA for 1 is going to be the combo on most players (as you see I have). 

Pass Rush: If I'm being honest, ETE isn’t going to do as much for you as DoN. I'd try to focus on DoN's as well as any free or cheap run stopping abilities.

Let me know if you have any questions!

Sounds good. I was looking at how I can restructure my AP and was wondering if it would be worth it to run two inside shades (Blount and Ramsey). I run a lot of man blitzes.

Totally. You could stack Inside Shade with PA for 2 AP on both of them. You could even go Deep Out Zone KO, Inside Shade, PA for 3 AP on Blount. I'd take Acro off Ed Reed and you could keep the rest of your D as is. One last suggestion would be to try Relentless (his activated X-Factor) on Hargrave instead of DoN and see how it plays. I know that already activated Unstoppable Force paired with DoN can get glitchy on Milk Man and Maniac.

Tried this out. Interestingly enough, I think the inside shades worked so well that my opponents in H2H only tested Cam Sutton. Too bad for them, Sutton had Deep Route KO and Pick Artist, so he got a lot of INTs and breakups. Thanks for the advice!

Awesome. Glad to hear!
