is it viable? build just like a WR but with way less speed/agility and way more strength and carrying. max out lower the shoulder. VA: YAC attack, bruiser, possession reciever.

I think you're issue will be getting the ball in you're guys hands, after that I don't see why it wouldn't work.
Getting the QB to throw you're way will be hard without much spd/agl though since you won't appear to be open.

I asked the same question in my tread. TE breaking tackles??
My TE has 68str and 80+spd and 60+ agi(after equip), i just havnt seen any TE plays where the TE breaks any tackles. Does anyone have a TE that has a bunch of Brk tcks????

This is what's tough - most LB's have the exact same build so its hard to get separation.

My HB on my team has about the same build thou, and he gets 15+ brk tcks a game. He does have 40 in carry thou.

But a HB has got momentum going for him, usually 3 to 6 yards of running before he gets hit. Whereas a TE or WR is likely to be hit before he really starts running after the catch, if he's going to be hit at all. It's not that it wouldn't work in the same circumstances, just that it's not usually the same.

If you don't have the speed and agility for separation, you won't get many looks. If you are covered, it will be much more difficult to catch passes unless catching is very high.
I was thinking of trying to make a TE like this and was advised not to. A balanced TE just doesn't do either receiving or blocking well enough to be much use.

The VA- YAC attack would work in this situation? and get your QB to set you as favorite. Or a Good QB that have high vis.

YAC Attack wouldn't work for me, I get a lot of passed more than 7 yards down field. I'm going to try Bruiser and bring my carry up to 40 or first cap. I got enough speed to get looks.

fact, balanced=crap in this game, doesn't matter what aspect we're talking about

Mine's doing okay, with a mix of BLK VIS AGI SP STR STR, and ignoring CTH/JMP except training. Got his first TD today, the slowest 100 yd dash you'll ever see. Had ~100 pancakes last season, I like the balance.

Fair enough, my guy hasn't produced much of anything so I can't really argue.
But if you are looking for a guy who's going to catch more passes than Todd Yoder I do think you need to get spd/agl as high as possible.
