I had originally planned to play out my D League contract through day 28, but with the new teams released, I figure now might be a better time.

My thought was that it was OK for him to be unproductive while in the D's and I could balance the build over time. He will level during today's game and I have all three boosts remaining.

Known Issues:

Stamina - He's getting 33 plays per game on Hard, which is fine for D League, but human owners might want more from him.

Vision - Nightly training this.

What are folks thoughts on ways I can make this guy more useful to a human team?

HOLY SHIT!!

strength is CRAZZZZZY!
How does that do for you? Does he get alot of pancakes?
Are his RB's productive?

Is his speed to slow for the RB?
I would say a Lv10-12 RB is gonna run over you....
I'm going to check some film on him.

first play I picked...first run of your last game...
Thats a lv 8 RB running over you....a higher RB would have been WAYYYY ahead of you.
I think you MUST attack SPEED.

He's in the D League, so the HBs aren't entirely forthcoming with their stats.

As for the strength, yes. I got it to natural 48 at the first opportunity before working on anything else. It's over natural 50 now, though I haven't spent anything on it in 3 levels, and probably won't have to touch it for the next 10 - I figure he'll be well over 70 playing STR by level 20, since he's also got 4 points of equipment that can be added once signing a real contract.

just run you by & essentially make your strength useless.

I don't think you should ever touch it again.
Skullz blocks whoever is in the hole. NT to FS he does not let go & has never been pancaked.
His strength is @ 30 & I see no need to raise it.

No problem. I wouldn't have asked if I didn't want input. I'm really leaving 2 levels early, I know that - which is why I mentioned the boosts. 20 skill points can add a lot of balance.

As for pancakes, I hadn't even checked until now but yep, he's 3rd on the team:

Half of them in the last 3 games, which makes sense because earlier in the season his speed was 9. I spent most of 2 levels and some training on it. 21 may not be high ... but it's a lot better than 9!

Skullz has 3 but that's never been my goal for him.
I want him in the hole blocking.

If your FB had speed dude...OMFG...he will be a TRUCK.

I added 3 to speed and 2 to stamina after the game (7.2 YPC, 6 broken tackles (on 6 rushes) and 9 pancakes) so we'll see how it turns out.

Skullz had a Killer Game today. If you got the time to watch the O you should.

I went to watch the film but apparently you've signed elsewhere.
Good luck!
