I don't know, I've got Demar Dorsey who's a RS Fr playing the slot corner right now. He's got 96 speed, 94 agility, 91 acceleration and 88 man coverage/76 zone and because his man coverage rating isn't in the 90's I still have problems with him in coverage. His awareness is low (43), I still contend awareness plays a role.
I'm sure that once his man coverage rating goes over 90 (what I consider the tipping point with all the ratings) he will be a lock down man corner.
But yes athletic skill does play a part.
