I don't think you can reach that while in the peewees.
Down-field blockers need vision in my experience.

At the moment it's the only useful WR in pee-wee, Cap strength W/EQ, blocking 35+, agility 35+, vision and speed 30 ish. Pancake puny CBs on the sweep, if you're lucky he'll catch the safety too and you get 6 points. Speed is the most overatted attribute for pee-wee WR, the best you can hope for offensively from them is to catch an 8 yard pass once a game, and for that you need capped catching and 30 speed. Fast CBs run backwards way ahead of you then lack the vision to react to the ball. Fast WR just run into the CBS and get "covered".

Personally I'd get speed to 30, vision, agility and blocking to first cap.
Rather not get a pancake with everyone moving so slowly, pushing and pulling is probably irrelevant too.
Need vision and blocking to consistently see the need for a block, agility to position for it, and blocking to engage it. Agility will also help you hold it and maintain position if it's broken so you can re-engage.

For pee-wee it's going to be WR vs CB directly in front him, so he doesn't have to make much of a vision check to get the right guy (major issue with fullbacks though). You could be right about the blocking, it may increase the radius to the point where he can also catch the blitzing safety and/or engage the CB a little longer. Although in mose cases you PS sweep and SI sweep are really going to get potent when the TE gets to the point where he can catch the safety. When this happens, a high strength WR can flatten the CB and set their sights on the LBs for possible huge gains.
