What do you all think of Shock Block for a Blocking TE? It comes with a +1 to Confidence. Would you prefer it to one that came with an attribute and had "Run Block SA"?
Stay away from all pass blocking SAs. Are there any pass formations the TE is not going out for a pass? If so (And I'm not up on the entire O playbook) look at the percentages. It's not worth it to have pass blocking SAs for a TE.
You can also have the TE stay in to block instead of running a route on every single pass play if you want. You just have to set it up that way in the advanced AI.
Larry, I'd honestly be looking for a hold block +% item for a blocking TE. Then you get the bonus to all types of blocks.
