Bobby Wagner is a filthy monster CPU and user (I alternate between him and Derwin James as user)..... HIGHLY RECOMMENDED POWERED UP
Fully PU Woodson on my Raiders theme team is really, really clutch. But that's a high investment player and one of the few big $ players on my team.
As for more moneyball options? I think Jeffrey Simmons MVP and LaVonte David (used my 85-86 PU pass on him) play really well and I never user them.
LaVonte has the blockshed, awareness, play recognition, pursuit, tackle, zone etc to just show up in every game. He's also got enough speed that he's pretty damn solid for me in QB spy when I choose to put him in it.
Simmons superstar is just a solid run defender in my 3-4. He's cheap, and I can't claim he's a game breaker or 'budget beast' but he's just solid AF. Would say the same for Bradley Chubb too; used a 62-81 PU pass on him and he plays the run well/sets the edge on his side (that is, of course, when you know the stretch is coming and you slide d-line outside pre-play, not sure if he's 'on the d-line' technically as a 3-4 OLB, but it makes the 3 down lineman for sure play the outside better and maybe that benefits Chubb).

His price is down to 330 right now. He's better than asante and Vincent. Would recommend people picking him up.
I'm hoping he bounces back up to 400k, cause I invested in 2 of his cards when I thought I got a steal at 345k this weekend
330 is still big moeny to me. Woodson, Bo, Lamar (200k when I got him), and Rice (170 when I got him), are the only big $ players I have. Everyone else is budget, and by budget, I mean under 50k, many of them much, much lower.
But we agree that Woodson is excellent and well worth the coins. Woodson + Aeneas + Lawson are nice for me. Woodson is the shutdown, Aeneas is solid but not spectacular and Lawson is the speed guy that can be a liability at times, but generally plays above his market value (at least on a 50/50 Raiders theme).
Aenas Williams plays great for me. He gets more picks that anyone else on my team, and he's good in run support for a CB.
Rod Woodson is ridiculous. No abilities. Straight animal. I also have 35/50 Lockdown so that may help some

Atwater and Mack
The waterboy
Hahaha no doubt! With all that running around not stopping play, those defensive players are gonna need some water!
I know defense is a kinda rough right now but who’s the best defensive player for you cpu wise? Mine is Ronnie Lott by FAR with the meta being man coverage with both safeties in purples his by far gotten the most picks and pick 6”s for my team.
I have Edmunds at the other safety and surprisingly he hasn’t made that big of an impact as Lott has even though they play similar schemes. I’m thinking about adding Atwater to replace Edmunds and see if he’ll play more like Lott.
