The Panthers have Thomas Davis and Julius Peppers lol.
MLB1: Fast - He will be getting through the line to the QB.. you want speed here.
MLB2: Average.. but not faster than your OLBs/MLB1 because this guy is cannon fodder. You want him to just take on blocks.
ROLB: 2nd/3rd fastest LB.. whichever you put in coverage more should be faster
LOLB: 2nd/3rd fastest LB.. whichever you put in coverage more should be faster
LE: Fastest Lineman[can be backup linebackers too]
RE: Second fastest lineman[can be backup linebackers too]
DT1: You want them to take up space.. speed doesn't matter, so have a tall one.
DT2: Same as DT1
CB1: 2nd Best CB
CB2: Best CB
The default setup of the 4-4 has your #1 CB on the left side. In most formations, the offenses best WR is on the right.
FS: Tall + Fast player.. I have Watkins because I love his 6'5" frame.
