I use a LOT of guys in my work.

With the exception of David3, Daz's males have always been overly muscular. To make them into believable "average" guys has always been a challenge. That is not to say that we don't need a muscle morph...we do... but I don't think a gym rat is what we need as a starting point. A Harrison Ford/Clint Eastwood build as the neutral point would be perfect in my book.

Secondly, well... let's get down to brass tacks: Genitals. A male figure needs to be... well.. MALE. And ALL of his boy parts need to pose smoothly. That part is tricky... there are times when it needs to be extremely flexible (I'd say 6 segments at a minimum!) and sometimes it needs to be... less flexible. The ability to pose this part should also be built in. Scaling for length and circumference would also be a plus.

Please, however, so NOT make him a male version of Antonia (for my part) in that you make him SO average that he has little character of his own. Also, a full morph set for him so we don't get twenty different sets to contend with.

In short, the functional equivilant of David 4 with morph++ would fill the bill for me. (Weight mapped, as long as I'm wishing!)
