tautology

I am curious if anyone has seen a good elusive/speed back who can run pitches and sweeps effectively with low strength (let's say 30-40 just to put a number on it).

I have seen some great combo-backs with higher strength do well on outside runs, and scat backs with low strength do well on passes, but I don't know that I have seen outside runners with low strength succeed.

To be clear: I am talking about running pitches and sweeps, not short passes and screens.

Anyone care to show a counter-example?

Pro level only please...

I've seen them do well enough to offset their fumbles in lower leagues, but it would be scary to run one in a PRO league.

Ex: http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=68919

~50 strength from what I remember, 8 fumbles on 144 total touches.

My HB's do well enough with very low strength in AAA leagues. They aren't S1 players so they haven't competed much on the Pro level yet.
