Why is carrying such a low-effect, (and as a result low-priority) ability for WRs? Isn't a huge part of WR'ing, particularly for speedsters, carrying the ball after the catch?

Yet none of the 3 basic models for WRs in the player guide even list carrying as an attribute (key or other) and it only gets a minor boost from levelling.

What's the deal?

How hard is it to hold a ball? LOL

I noticed a whole lot less "bobble" after catching a pass when I raised my Carrying to 30+. My WR was able to catch the ball and immediately start running with it with better success instead having to wait a half second or so and bobble around with the ball before he got it tucked in properly.

It seems like I've gotten a bit better about tucking all but the worst passes/deflections recently - I'm working carrying to 40 so that YAC attack becomes an option.

Carrying helps break tackles... my 40 strength 40 carrying receiver breaks a bunch of them.

Unless you are always 10 yard WIDE-OPEN all the time...
Catch at least 60
I believe in 40+ Carry for a WR.
I also believe in 40+ Confidence for a WR.

If he cannot CATCH and put away the ball, he is not a Receiver he is a "dropper" or "someone who gives to ball to the other team."
