At first my RB was gonna be elusive. I built him to be eluive. Now im workin on him bein a combo back, im workin on strength.

Should i focus more on elusive right now or try to get some power.???

I personally think that it's most effective to go strong to one style of running instead of a combo. By adding points in every skill, I personally think that instead of becoming "well rounded", you make your player mediocre at both styles. That's not to say that neglecting strength on an elusive back won't lead to fumbles, and neglecting speed on a power back won't hurt you.

My personal advice would be to first put all your custom equipment into either one or two attributes. The purpose being that focused custom equipment saves you SP later on after you start hitting the caps.
Second, I would say choose a running style and stick to it. But that's just my opinion.

I'm unsure about that. I've read that setting your back to a running style does more than just determine his behavior, but actually adds a bonus to his abilities in that style. I've tried both elusive and combo on my back and it's difficult to tell which works best since opponents change every time.

Personally, I go elusive. Bort's had enough time to tweak the game quite a bit. And I can't imagine he'd include the ability to set a back's running style without it providing adequate benefit.

Agreed on focusing the equipment on one or two things.

You don't have near enough strength to run on the power setting, but you're too balanced to effectively run on elusive either -- I'd use the combo setting.

If you're asking for equipment help, I'd put it all your bonuses on speed.

If you're asking for build help, I'd dump all your points into agility until it hits a base 48.
