SS vs SubLB , Dawkins, Adrian , Woodson

So Chinn has to be my user...I love using him.  . But I'm struggling between who my 2nd SubLb should be vs my SS position. 

Dawkins, Adrian Wilson or Darren Woodson.

Adrian does not get TY boost,  I run Legends TT

What do you guys think? I run primarily nickel with 2 SubLBs on the field and s lot of Man cvg with a +3 strat card boost to man cvg

How are you able to get Dawkins at SubLB? I thought that’s only for SS positions for eligibility?

You can manually sub him in there. And I think if he’s your backup SS and your SUBLB2 is blank then he automatically goes there

Yup.  I just manually sub him in in my nickel and dime formations. And w SS as secondary position I have him at SS

Adrian Wilson does have Legend - I have used him and Darren Woodson now. 

But this morning after hearing about Marshall Faulk's release today, I sold Wilson and got Faulk today.  

I like using Derrick Brooks or Urlacher as my other SubLB.  Also have used Weapon X there who I love. 

Yeah leave the SubLB 2nd spot open or blank in order to Sub in FS1 or FS2.

Sorry, yes you are right...Adrian Wilson gets Legends chem, I actually forgot to put it on him LOL.I got Faulk also. Not a fan of the ability structure on his card, I don't need backfield master or rb apprentice (Elway w HRM)... and I question whether he is better than Marcus, Barry, and Chubb/Taylor (for power running). But I tried Faulk and he gets glitchy acceleration. Have you noticed this? It was wild. He was about to get tackled and he warped. I put grab n go on him and on a table route he turned upfield, the safety had him dead to rights and somehow he sped up past him. Marcus is still the best back in the game. But Marcus and CJ2k have 96+accel yet Faulk seems to accelerate  better with a lower attribute #. 

Weapon X looks by comparison to be sort of outdated or aucght up to by other cards but he still plays like a top card on the field. Whether at SS or SubLB. I actually run Ed Reed and Weapon X at FS and SS. Reed has acro for 2 AP so that's a no brainer.  Dawkins makes great plays at SS or SubLB ....just not sure if I sould throw Adrian Wilson or Woodson on the back end at SS. I have been using Woodson at SubLB2 because of his insane attributes and stats

I think Chinn is a great user and is also my SubLB1.  As a traditionalist I like by SubLb2 to be an actual LB.  Simmons is good and he can also be usered.  Urlacher is a set and forget and he helps substantially better stop the run.  Luke was also really good.  My newest guy who I love is Ken Norton.  Good height, surprising quick and gets legends chems.  In my base set him and Urlacher together is lock down pass or run.  If your set on putting a safety there, height is always the tie breaker there.  I think Woodson was the tallest of the 3 you gave.  I had Wilson but he seemed sluggish when I did user him.  Dawkins is getting passed up by better players fast and to me his value was in actaully playing FS.  Before I switched to Chinn, Derwin was still putting in work despite his 91 speed.
