I Understand better now. other question what about the 335 where the 2 ss safties play up in a cb slot or outside line backer?

Is the engine able to take that into account?

No, you would have to put them in as CB2 left/right then, as far as I understand your idea.

I understand then but just to clear thing up this is not an idea it is real defense ran by WVU and some other collages and high schools here in the US.
On the other hand the real 3-3-5 ran in the NFL ran with 3 CB. Which there is no need to have here unless we have 3WR formations.

This here is a "designed" 3-3-5. Goal was to have balance between left and right, a small DL with two "blitzers", and a strong "centered" backfield compared to the Dime as example

under standable but it is unreal formation that has never been used that I have seen.

But have the 3 Safeties in a cover 3 stack over the CBL MLB CBR is also used by many teams.

335 COLLAGE STYLE
CBL/SSL/DEL/NT/DER/SSR/CBR/OLBL/MLB/OLBR/FSC

IMO better.
Because SSC to close to MLB

The idea was to have a very last resort on the flanks, since there are 3 tackle chances in the middle. The FS has a much better chance to catch that outer WR

What is the difference in catching that outside WR between SSL FSC SSR and FSR SSC FSL.

I would rather have the 2 SS closer to the LOS than the 2 FS when running a 335.

Well, I was hoping to find out what the differences are. Wouldn't the 2 SS formation provide better run support? While the 2 FS formation would be better against a pass? Based entirely on where the positions line up and disregarding the attributes of the players.
