You speak 10x better English than we would speak Italian so don't worry bro

I'd agree with getting agility to 68, so over 70 with Equipment.

I'd get strength up to around 60 - I used to be of your mindset: that strength is useless for elusive HBs. But you will hit contact at some point, and strength will not only help you not fumble but will mean you may break that last tackle and get into the open field - you will rarely break away untouched.

As well as this, after increasing strength this off-season I have found my guy has been using spin at least twice per game. Last season he did it once.

Saying all this, my guy has not been as effective as I would have liked this season - he seems to get hit by 2 or 3 guys behind the LOS on 3 out of every 5 plays

TBH (just to give you an alternate answer), I wouldn't worry about agility unless you plan on pumping up juke or spin. It's not really worth getting agility to the next cap since at your level the big leveling gains have passed. If you want to be a true speed back, then think about getting speed to the 5:1 and 6:1 caps, then pump up quick cut. Otherwise, confidence and carrying will help your player more than a couple of points in agility. Get confidence to 50 and carrying to 60.

I would at least put the 2-3 points into carrying to cap it and then intense train confidence+carrying.

if the stats you listed are still pretty accurate and already have EQ included (which i'd guess it does)

bring your agility up to 68 or higher and move a piece of EQ from speed to agility then run on anywhere from +50 to +100. higher QC, juke, and HF will help too but i wouldn't go overboard. and i have a piece of aeq w/ +5% fake chance that is kinda nice coupled w/ quick feet VA

There are a couple of variables that you aren't considering:
1) At lower levels power backs are usually dominant since defenders are more concerned with speed and agility and less with strength and tackling.
2) Broken tackles don't make his HB better per say, if you want to put a positive spin on it you can look at it from the perspective of how well your HB is avoiding tackles all together.
3) Your HB is still very young, so think long-term and don't get caught up on his performance in a blowout. My main team ('Nites) has three HBs, all with very good builds, and each one can excel in any given game depending on the circumstances.

Just to reiterate you can't compare your HB builds as they're in completely different directions. Listen to cptafw163 and read his threads regarding vision and the running slider, they're the best source of knowledge on the slider that I've ever seen and it's helped open my eyes quite a bit.

agility to 68 naturally (keep equip there to get it over 70)
carrying to 48

your speed is perfect. agility is what's needed to make you better

confidence should be as high as you can take it w/o adversely affecting your build. probably somewhere b/t 35-45 is good

Don't put SP into confidence, just intense train it with stamina. You've got no real other viable training combos so just put him on that and increase confidence that way.
