I’ve been hearing a lot of negative comments about him. What stack you running?

Against my better judgement, i splurged (on $22 pack offer, 2800 Points, before my EA Play expires) and could not believe it when big Chris Jones popped out. I know i should have sold him for the coins, as none of these GTs ever hold value... but the card just looked too good and my primary focus is on playing Defensive Coordinator for our little squads trio.
Sorry Spice Adams, yer now DT3.
Running; Blitz + Dual Threat, Under Pressure, Tackle Supreme, DoN & Interior Threat, i think... then i have the Bull Rush X-factor activated, which only takes two tackles to activate. He's an absolute demon, i mostly just rush three.

I just picked him up today when he dropped under 3. Any thoughts on Out of My Way over Under Pressure? I chose that due to the Vanguards on the field but not sure if it’s redundant with the other abilities as I think we’re running the same besides that.

I actually ended up adjusting abilities today, but personally, I'm keeping both Reach Elite (this is bucket you may end up running Out My Way) & Under Pressure. For most of the year I didn't think this did anything, but lately we're noticing quite a number of random overthrows. The frequency seems to have ticked up enough that I'm now running it on all four of my pass rushers, using ETE from both right and left (William Perry & Hasaan Reddick).
And then I switched over to Interior Threat, moving Bull Rush to his 0AP X-factor and it lights up nearly every game, just requires two tackles.
I am operating under the assumption that as a DT, Chris Jones will be mostly interacting with offensive linemen, versus HB, TE or WR Vanguards, but there is definite value in what you are suggesting. I've sort of neglected it on my line.
Edit: I've also been adding D-line Pick Artist, which is lovely cherry on top.

Interesting. Zan put out the video below two weeks ago and came to the conclusion that Under Pressure (and Fear Monger) weren't doing much, if anything, at this point in the season. I wonder if this may be one of those things where lab'ing it in Practice vs a H2H game creates different results...or perhaps Reach Elite is potentially enhancing Under Pressure.

Thanks for the link, will definitely check this out. I would tend to agree with him, until just a couple weeks ago... although, admittedly, this could all be in my head. It's hardly been a scientific testing method, more based off my own feelings from Legends tier H2H Squads (and teammates mentioning it, unprompted).
Essentially it came down to the simple fact, there weren't any other remotely decent abilities in these buckets, not sure there's a ton of value in D-line Enforcer Supreme, but that's basically what I'm giving up. Meh.
