So... I'm tossin my hat into the 'crazy build ring again. I know some have tried this but I have not... at least not like this. The plan is to hit 107+ NATURAL speed... plus EQ/AEQ. Make Catch % gear and 1st Step for sure. Will have less than optimal other skills... everything into Speed, and Catching. Agility might be lower than most builds but not terribly so.
The object is to make a WR that's good for one type of route... the Go route or, at least a Post route and Go route. His agility likely won't be good enough to do hard in and out routes and get open. But, with the right OC and bomb tossin QB, he should be able to take the lid off any defense that puts it's safeties up close to the LOS to stop the run. That's the plan anyways. Needs a NON-Casual team so the OC can have total control over when he's targeted.

If this sounds like something you might want to try, send me an offer. Otherwise I'll put on a CPU or D-league team and keep him going to see what he looks like (and plays like) at the end.
Thanks.
Theo.

I'm aiming for 113 natural speed on my in-progress speed wr Theo.

Just noting, I'd highly highly highly recommend 10 route run. 164 spd with 10 route run (penalty) is considerably faster (on the speed script) than 165 and 166 spd.

Thanks. Was considering the following; Route Run, 1st step (need to make up for the lower ending agility number) along with Catch Fake and Make Catch. Those 4 things on the top of my list, for sure. I probably won't hit 113 natural because the farther the ball travels through the air, the harder it is to make the catch. Not so much a fault of the receiver's catching (or lack thereof) but the penalties applied to the QB's throw for distance traveled. So I'm thinking the receiver needs to make up the difference with high catching. Should end up as the 2nd highest skill. Vision might end up close to where Agility ends. 110 speed, 90 catching (or as close as possible), 70-something Vision and Agility... 80 if I can reach it without hurting the top 2 skills.
Also considering Ball Hawk for those slightly errant deep bombs. Will think over it more as I go. Right now it's speed, speed, speed, speed, speed.
