Here are his (relevant) stats:

Strength: 61.2 Speed: 68.2 Agility: 59.2
Jumping: 14.35 Catching: 14.35 Stamina: 34.17
Carrying: 30.63 Vision: 21.02 Confidence: 18.2

All his gear is currently in speed. Right now, I am planning to:

1) Boost once, put 4 points into agility (I think the 3 point cap is 60.4 something, so if my math is right, I should barely get that)

2) Boost two more times, spend 12 total points in speed

3) Next season, spend 8 points to get speed to a base of 60

Now, I'm at a loss as to what to do from here. I plan to intense train vision/confidence for the entire season, with a goal of hitting 27 or so by the end of the year (not figuring in the points from token boosting). But I'm debating as to where I should go from here. Things I'm considering:

-Points into Carrying to get it to 48
-Points into catching, possibly -- maybe get used as a #4 or #5 WR
-More points into speed, agility, or strength.

Right now, I'm leaning towards the first. After that, do people think catching to 35 or 40 would be worth it? Note that I have no SAs, and don't plan to add any this season, and possibly not next season. I want to get as many stats to a good base before I look at SAs. I'm actually tempted to never touch SAs and see if an RB can get good without them (though I may make an exception for Quick Cut and Cover Up). I also don't have vision listed since I'm not sure if it is reliably helping RBs out yet or if there are still downsides to higher vision. Also, I am not trying to make a back that will necessarily be a viable back this season -- this is yet another season dedicated to building and min-maxing.

I also may take him down the power back tree when I get his base stats in order. Run someone over, then get moving.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

i think u should train carrying and confidence and get your agility up there like you want and then just start pumping everything into strength. power backs seem to be more effective in this game right now.
