Zeke vs Hayward (Input Needed)
Quote from l3wisit3 >> I'd go Hayward. I was very much concerned about his pursuit but so far it hasn't been an issue. With lockdown added, his coverage attributes are extremely high for this time of year. Speed is adequate and I would just match corners "by speed" in coaching adjustments if it worried me. I would also sell White to recoup some coins if you're not all that attached to him since he isn't a power up and is a stand alone card that will diminish in value. The next Lattimore card is gonna be great (buy power up now if you plan to do it) and will have plenty of speed to burn.
I don't know why you wouldn't just go with Ricky WIlliams as he's slightly better than Zeke and cost you nothing once you level him all the way up to 92?
I've got McCoy as well and am either gonna go Hayward or whoever is most expensive on the AH at the time
Hayward. This game will have far too many RB options down the road. A couple which are already free.

Appreciate the input, no Barkley here for me. Took MUT 18 off, still Ricky is serviceable just don't see him being my #1 ever more of a solid spell HB.
I agree with Hayward being better long term play, just was a tad concerned about his speed and pursuit but isn't like any of CBs available atm are burners. You do bring up a good point about future upgrades however. I really wasn't factoring that in too much because at this point only been upgrading guys I want to keep around all year. Hayward could fit into that group I guess if he does eventually gets a few more powerups.
Honestly I started to PU a Barry but didn't feel like it was worth the investment over McCoy yet. (Few more positions I wanna address first) So Zeke is pretty much in same boat but with free NATs I guess I felt like price was at least good enough to consider the swap.

Quote from mvandor >> You have a free Ricky Williams and perhaps Barkley if you did the 18 RP collection. The first will reach 99, the second likely in the 90's. Shelling out for another RB would only have a short term benefit, doubtful Zeke gets to 99. Hayward powers up to 91 I believe and long term should reach high 90's. Most of your current CB's won't increase similarly.
Hayward IMHO is the better long term play.

Definitely Hayward, BIG playmaker and in the long run will last the longest. Especially because of Williams will surpass Zeke soon enough.

Alright finally finished up the Ultimate Kickoff solos and as NMS i've decided basically to build one of the 90's you get the free NAT players for and call it a day with this promo. Narrowed it down between Zeke and Hayward.
This is my team currently - https://www.muthead.com/19/team-builder/969696
At HB I've been using campaign McCoy and he still gets the job done. Zeke looks very similiar with main difference being having an actual stiff arm move which would be nice to add to arsenal for certain situations, little more speed with less catching. Overall looks pretty solid card, has anyone went to Zeke from McCoy and would recommend the switch?
At CB I'm pretty deep atm with 89 Woodson, 88 TD Tre White, 87 Guantlet Jaire, 86 Core Elite Lattimore as my top 4.
Either Zeke or Hayward gives me a slight boost over who I currently use and am leaning towards Zeke atm because I do run the ball a lot and feel like I would use Zeke for another month or two at least which is a lot imo esp for my play style. CBs hold their value longer however and even with good depth already Hayward def would stay in lineup longer than Zeke overall. All my CBs besides Tre are NATs tho so not really any coins to recover either way. Am probably over thinking it since the 90 Ultimate Kickoff guys can be auctioned but generally I like to use guys I build for least a bit before shipping off. Any input? Thanks in advance.
