was thinking about building FB like a agility HB. So that my team could run a 2 back back field. has this been tryed ? does it work?

Later in your build you might be able to achieve that, but you can't waste anything on "speed" at the early levels of the build since you get zero auto-level-gains from that attribute. As a result, I'm not thinking you're going to be a very nimble back if you've got all sorts of agility but no speed to get downfield.

not really worried abot early stages of build. plus i can build a "FB" HB for 200 flex and a HB cost 300 so i can boost the "FB" alot easier and cheaper.

A FB just doesn't really have the SAs to support an elusive build...
If you want to run with idea though, I would do this...
Carrying to 77 > Agility to 73 > Strength to 60 > Speed to 68 or 73 > Power Thru to 8 > Quick Cuts to 8 > Slippery to 15
Get a couple of +% break tackle chance AEQ and split your EQ between speed/agility/carrying.
This will put you around ~100 carrying, ~90 agility, ~90 speed, ~65 strength and +70% break tackle chance (with Slippery). The lack of strength will hurt your Power Thru, but you should still be able to break a decent amount of tackles (as well as avoid a fair amount).

I tried it a while ago, but retired my FB for the flex.

The lack of a speed bonus will really hurt throughout his career. Overall though, it can work quite well if you have patience, but your FB will onlu really be effective if he's used sparingly.

Pros -
Best carrying and agility bonuses for any offensive player.
Cons -
No speed bonus
No fake/spin SAs
I'm not sure it's the best use of flex. Building an offensive FB isn't hard, heck, building a hybrid FB isn't hard. Building an elusive FB seems kinda like rolling a snowball uphill.
