I have a rushing/catching FB with 83 agility (headed for 90+) and 80+ speed who rushes sometimes but is mainly a catching threat. I'm going to use the rusher archtype as its simply better for attribute gains but I'm stuck for what SA to give him.

I have 5 points in scat back VA currently.

So options include.

Trade in SB VA and take the SA instead.

Take Lower the shoulder or stiff arm and work on strength from here on out. (kind of against how he's been built so far - 50 str at this point)

Take Juke and continue to push agi and speed.

Take Spin (this is the real question - is this a sensible idea) and top up with an AEQ piece as well.

Or go down a possession route with catch in stride or something (my least favourite options as there are loads of VA's to help catch the ball)

Any hints from people with fast and agile fullbacks already would be very welcome

Useful so far...feel like expanding on that?

I'm taking Spin on my rec/rush FB.

Of course he has 90+ str, 80+ agi, 70+ carry, and 2 pieces of BT%.

Anyone who DOESN'T take Spin is wasting a golden opportunity for a rushing FB. It gives you yet another opportunity to break a tackle:

1) STR+CAR generally
2) Power Thru
3) BB%
4) Spin

It's just smart.

Spin is great but with the changes to % aeq stacking why not take a bonus SA that won't be available via aeq like scat back or surge and go with 1 BT% and 1 Spin piece?

The reason is obvious.

if you catch lots of passes, scat back SA seems like the obvious choice to me unless you're 2 seasons from retiring
