tips for getting #1 wr the ball more

ive always struggled to get my #1 wr the ball. no matter what team i use or who the wr is i struggle to get him the ball 5 times a game. my slot and my number 2 wr always lead my team in all receiving categories. i know i can put him at either #2 or slot but that just seems cheating to me. my wr's currently are anquan boldin, torrey smith and jacoby jones. any help is appeciated.

Up his route running. I am in an online franchise in season 4 and my best and leading WR is Reggie Wayne. He isn't fast, but has excellent hands and his route running allows him to separate against man coverage.

Hitches, posts, digs and drags. No go routes as he is too slow.

Read your coverage and hot route. My number 1 and number 2 receivers get most of my catches, really it just depends on who's side of the field I'm on.

thats the thing i read coverage really well and complete a high percentage of my passes(65-70% regularly) its just my #1 wr ends with the fewest amount of receptions in every game so im trying to get him involved more. my best game with boldin was when i used DET playbook and thats just cuz it moved boldin all around on formations.

Re: tips for getting #1 wr the ball more

If they are playing off run curls learn how to time your release. I normally figure out my timing so I can throw it before they even turn.

If they are playing close send them on a go sometimes you gotta fit it in a tight spot depending on how fast the S rolls over.

Edit: Another thought if they are the backside receiver check into a drag so they can get into the play. If they are the play side receiver and you read the LB on a blitz check to a slant and make them pay for the blitz.

Route Combos are horrible in EA games. Sometimes a player is running a route IRL just to get another route open. If you send your WR underneath send your TE deep to stretch the coverage.
