(S16) - PT3 - Trading Places

[SwagSloth]

As much fun as it has been being a QB and carrying the torch for my team, part of me misses the DT role. You might find that odd as DT isn't a spotlight position, but it's rare position of need and it brought me a lot of pride to fill that role for my team. DEs and DTs don't tend to get the big stats, but I felt like my impact was made on the field and that, as I gained more TPE, it helped the defenders around do their jobs better. It's the ultimate team player role and one I may take another shot at when it comes time to recreate. I do think, if I were to go back to DT, I would avoid Interior Rusher and instead go Nose Tackle or Balanced. I learned during my time in the role that, for D-Line, Strength is king and therefore, that higher strength cap makes a big difference. Perhaps one day, Andrew Reese's son will dominate the role that he once filled during his early days in the NSFL. Not to say I regret going QB; I don't! It's been great despite being a very challenging position even with high TPE. No one can say for sure what's Reese's ultimate impact in the league will be, but I still miss the days of playing D-Line from time to time.
