Is AEQ with +1 shock block and +1 str useful?

If not what type special abilities are useful?

blocking te's are most useful in the running game.
Look for Pancake sa's and hold block %

Get Low SA is best VA for Blocking TE IMO. Nothing like driving a DE back 4 to 5 YDS on a run play.

Theres also nothing better than pancaking a DE then moving on to a LB on a run play.

Thanks for your help.

Only problem I have with Get Low is where it's at on the tree. I'd hate spending SPs on Pass Block (100 percent useless) or Hands.

I found +3 strength, +1 Pancake and +3 agility, +1 Pancake for my two pieces of AEQ. Then I plan on simply adding Run Block up to a natural 9 or 10. Other than that, I'd rather have the SPs for speed and agility.

Um... couldn't you do the exact same thing with Get Low AEQ.....?

Of course. Never said you couldn't. Just never found those pieces. I happened to get those two Pancake pieces in a handful of shopping trips.

How much speed/agility is needed for a Blocking TE?

Depends on what level you're talking about. But you'll need a pretty good amount, regardless.

Which should you get higher speed or agility for a blocker? I think agility will help some in holding a block but does it outweigh the ability to get to the second level faster with a higher speed? Also how high should the blocking ability be taken 60? 68?

Agility > speed. Blocking to at least the third cap.

Ok, thanks dude thats the route I was thinking of taking.
