Top 5 man corners?

Breakluna said:

1. DJ Turner- Hard to beat being the only corner in the game who can equip both inside shade and deep route ko at the same time for free
2. Anquan Boldin - The only player who gets one step ahead for free. 
3. Chris McAlister - 99 in every relevant stat is great. Plus he gets free inside shade or one step ahead for 1 ap
4. Mike Haynes- Tallest UL corner at 6'2" with free inside shade 
5. Calvin Johnson - Tallest Corner at 6'5" with free inside shade

Corners with UC can also play well in man because of all the KOs they get but they're also more likey to be too far away to make a play on the ball because they often lack inside shade.

I'd also consider Parham if you need an outside corner

Turner pretty much gets OSA for free doesnt he? With free inside and outside shade.

I don’t factor abilities in when I say who’s the best for me but I will say if I see Anquan in a lineup that’s who I’m throwing at.

Your mistake then

Yes, he does. I missed the fact he can get free outside shade. Doesn't change my rankings in fact it probably makes him slightly better since he's more flexible.

If I were running him I think I'd just go inside shade and drko for free so I could spend ap elsewhere.

I get you’re a Cardinals fan and it’s no coincidence that most of your picks are Cardinals but there are definitely better choices than Anquan imo.

Donald Parham has been a beast for me as my cb 1, with Mcalister at 2 who's been solid, comp pass joey porter at 3 also plays good, and sanders at 4.  Peppers and Parham make the most plays, with prob Mcalister right after.

I run dollar spinner and I have parham and Deion as my 2 corners with deep, medium, and short route kos for 2 ap each, they play awesome and they lock up until Blitzers get there. 

i would put them In top 5 for sure, and this list isn’t in any particular order

1. dj Turner 2 0ap buckets with inside shade and drko for 0

2. Deion still gets pick artist and a ko for free, he doesn’t Get burned a lot and gets a lot of kos in game

3. Parham you can’t really beat the height advantage this card has. And as well as Deion he gets pick artist and a ko for free, he mosses so many recievers it’s crazy

4. McAllister he is awesome especially in the slot and he gets inside shade for 0 which is a great bonus

5. boldin he was one of the best corners I used all year with osa for 0, but he got burned a lot especially on corners like every time for me, even with osa, but that could just be a me issue

DJ Turner

Darrelle Revis

Aeneas Williams 

Anquan Boldin 

Patrick Peterson 

Jaycee Horn (sleeper pick)

I've used all of them and still have them. (This is just a list, not a ranking).

****Patrick Surtain II (TOTY) was also good for me.

Is champ really better at man than Anquan Boldin who gets free one step ahead? Is any corner?

Doubtful.  I mean, no -- absolutely not, who are we kidding here.  Until just this past week, i would have told you that Anquan Boldin is hands down, THE best pure Man Cornerback in the entire game.  DJ Turner's new RP is a fairly new addition to my squad, but he's been pretty great thus far.  Initially, i made the mistake of running Inside Shade + Outside Shade on him for 0AP, but have revised that to be: Inside Shade + Pick Artist for 0AP, he's my Slot2 Corner next to Deion (who is fantastic, but lacks the Inside Shade ability, which is pretty crucial for man schemes).  However, Deion just feels liek he's got 150-200 Play Recognition and Awareness stats, he's an absolute ball hawk and has remained on my roster since RoH promo dropped, and easily has been the most consistent and productive corner on the field.

Can't wait to get the Jamal Adams with 0AP Universal Coverage, that's been absolutely clutch.  I've been running Joey Porter Jr. with his 1AP (passive) UC ability at SS, he compliments Chad Johnson (FS) quite well in both Cover 2 Man with over the top deep safety help, as well as straight up Man 0 schemes when i am trying to generate pressure, rushing 5 or 6 defenders.  At that point I'll almost certainly move JPJ back to his natural position, but unsure who will get retired at that point.  My outside corners have been; Anquan Boldin and Lester Hayes on boosted 49ers TT.

Boldin with boosted team chems is basically a golden ticket.  He's a must-have in any man schemes, IMO.

Abilities are the ONLY thing that truly matters now that we're in the end-game.  If yer DB doesn't have 99 SPD/ACC and at or near 99 in all relevant stats, then something is seriously wrong.

Totally agree. Tbh abilities have ruled the game since the beginning. I honestly think that they need to nerf them although I know they won’t cuz I played the beta. 
It’s really sad to see the game be ruled by stupid abilities that don’t emulate real football at all. I like how nba2k has sort of abilities but they’re not super dominant or anything. The meta for 2k however remains to be cheesy tall players same as madden. Only reason Donald Parham has more than 1 card or in 2k it’s Tacko Fall.

Champ Bailey has always been a problem to play against, i want to get him but just got DJ, and i hardly hear anything good about champ

CB Boldin only gets legends, 49ers, Cardinals, Lions, and Ravens chems.
