ive heard conflicting things about strength vs blocking for FBs. I think that strength is more important and that blocking doesnt need to keep going up, but ive heard some recommendations to keep blocking as high as str. thoughts?

I really don't know. Your guy is a higher level than mine so all I can really go on is what I've done so far, which isn't much. I will say I have almost twice as much strength as blocking right now and it hasn't seemed to be much of a problem. I'd like to hear what other people have to say about this, though.

Edit: I want to add that I will be focusing more on blocking than strength in the next few levels. Not necessarily to make them equal (or really even close), just to even things up a little.

I agree. Maybe a few to carrying if you run a lot.

If you want to be just a blocking back, then I guess pump up blocking. But really, just having high strength will make you a decent blocker. I have strength roughly twice that of blocking and he's always been pretty good. I noticed that when I recently pumped up his vision that he has become a very good blocker and picking up blitzes better. Yes, occasionally a good LB will slip by, but on the whole I think those skill points have been put to better use elsewhere.

yeah what ive seen is that strength being higher than blocking is better for an allaround FB. whats your thoughts on agility?

My original goal for my fullback was to be a team player, Lorenzo Neal type. I wanted to crush some LBs lead blocking for a league leading rushing attack. I had high strength, high blocking, high vision and invested in the blocking tree. He was very ineffective. After losing the championship game were my FB played poorly I decided a change needed to be made. My goal now is to get him to the right place and put a body on the LB. This season he is becoming increasingly effective. First I pumped up his speed, so he could get in front of the HB. Now I'm pumping up agility. It's my belief that the best blocking fullbacks have a balanced build, with a focus on the blocking tree.

Yeah, blocking and rushing FB's basically need the same skills. Picking the tree will define your guy although I've picked some in both to work on.

A blocking backs needed skill set is dependent on the halfback, He needs +30 speed and agility if blocking for a illusive back but can do with a lot less speed (and more blocking and agility) if blocking for a powerback

str to 50, agi to 40 speed to 30. stamina to 30 ATLEAST tho this also depend son what kind of play # u are getting.

from there.

if you looking to be a blocking FB then -> blocking to 40-45 extend SA's to pancake #2.

if you looking to be a combo back -> blocking to 40, speed to 35 and pump some SA's before taking str higher. (1 in dive 4 yards 1 up to pancake.

if you looking to be a rushing FB back speed to 40 agi to 45 and SA's (dive 4 yrds , and more importantly power through). and then extend str to 70 (with equip)


add a little stam/vision as you go.

daily train confidence.

awesome. thanks for the help everyone

29 strength
36 blocking @ Lv.19


Not saying anybody is wrong....Skullz plays most, if not, all of the game, feel free to watch him & see if your opinion on "strength" doesn't change.
I had 2 pancakes last game.

nice. i would assume your guy has high vision and speed?

i used my equip upgrades on blocking nd strength, leveled up I think I used it mostly on agility. With my 2 remaining boosts this season I think I might use all 10 points towards speed, and then work on vision next season

30/50

I built my FB off of film...if the RB ran up my ass, I needed speed.
