Rank the TOP 5 All-Star Athletes (98's only)

Looking to build a few and I'd like to hear your thoughts.   Thanks!

Megatron WR & Larry Allen at DT are the 2 must haves

in no particular order:

Larry Allen DT (lives in the backfield with colossus 

Both SS and WR Calvin (WR calvin beats man press because of double me and SS calvin gets every zone KO for 1 ap or universal coverage for 2 if you run man)

either Sweat RB, Henry, or Ant (all are great, Henry is my fav and only one of the bunch i have used lol)

Ed Too Tall or Randell WRs (Ed can spin half way across the field in 1 move, Randell fights for yards and breaks a ton of tackles. both also get 0 ap tank)

This is a fantastic list -- i'd probably have Larry at the top of the short list (it's who i ultimately took as my BND, after much deliberation -- with the thinking being, right now he's elite, best DT in the entire game, but if/when that loses its luster, i can drop him back to OG, where he's basically and end-game offensive lineman with 0AP Secure Protector, All Day + Post Up).

Ed Too Tall has THE best, most overpowered spin move in the entire game -- which is truly saying something, because any of the handful of players that get it are already next-level elite skill position players.  Too Tall is next-level, stupid overpowered.

And yes, if you are not already using one of the four RBs, don't walk, run to make that change; Ant, T. Sweat, King Henry or Quadfather.  ALL are amazing, be sure to include; Tank + Spin Cycle

exactly, took him and Ed Too Tall (playing at WR right now and can go back to DT as a replacement for Larry) from my BNDs. 

he is so fun to use lmao

yup

good work

You manage to free up 1AP for YAC `em Up, so you could have a blast with the kick (and punt) returns, from that ~seven foot tall monster?  I haven't tried it yet, but he might be able to hurdle defenders, haaaa.

Larry Allen DT with colossus is crazy good AND being a gold 99 LT/RT is a bonus.
Too Tall Jones LE with colossus just runs down everyone 
Calvin Johnson WR
Too Tall Jones WR.
Calvin Johnson SS

Honorable mention but Ted Hendricks with dual threat has been a menace for me. Him & Larry Allen both take turns sacking the QB for me.

nah i havent, im kinda crunched with my AP. 3 on henry (AR and evasive), 2 and ward (who i plan on replacing with Jameis), 1 on calvin (tank), ed (short in elite), randell (short in elite), taysom (short in elite). you not wrong lmao

I had to give up my beloved SIE in favor of the new meta (spin, baby, spin!) -- now i'm running Tank + Spin Cycle on everyone, including receivers.  Trying to free up one AP so i can put Tank back on Calvin... this might be the way, hrmm.

Are you using Ed at LE? I’m thinking about replacing Hunter with him but have been hesitant as pass rushers have been so hit or miss.

i still get spin cycle on randell, calvin, and ed (also evasive on henry). tank on all 4 as well, ward with only 2 ap stack helping me keep these stacks.

Very nice, does Charlie also get velocity ability for just 2AP? I have a difficult time considering certain QB Release types.

no. I have baked-on hot route master and gunslinger, gift wrapped, conductor, dashing deadeye, and QB Playmaker. honestly hasn't been to bad without velocity. release is kinda meh tho, same as Peyton manning
