Anyone have had any success having really high RR, like 10ish?

RR builds took a hit this season but I anticipate the coming back in a big way next season

My WR has 60 speed, 60agi and 10 route run...this is how fast he moves (first catch of the game, 2nd series)

personally, I think someone with 70 speed and zero route run moves faster than he does

Looked pretty fast to me up until he caught the ball.

Along those same lines of thinking....

Here is my situation.
I currently have 70 speed and 65 agility (natural numbers) with only 2 in Route Running. With equipment and VA's my Speed is 110 and Agility 75. At this point how much would increasing RR benefit my WR? I have heard much speculation that RR is much more beneficial to slower, possession type of receivers. I do not consider my WR a speedster, more balanced I think, but I wonder if my Speed and Agility are too high to really see a huge difference between a 2 in RR or say a 7 in RR.

Thoughts, opinions?

60 speed and no EQ on top of that?

60 speed, 60 agility with EQ

the 10 RR is a huge difference. 60 60 would be really slow without it

Yes for sure- 10 points in RR also costs a crap ton of SP's tho hahaha

I'm not sure if the investment into RR exceeds the investment of natural speed. Who knows

assuming your Custom eq is there ...it's only 25 points(not bad) 60-68 in an attribute is 24

People think that RR more helpful for slow guys because of that line in the description that says it is good for guys who are not otherwise fast or agile. But maybe Bort just meant if you aren't fast that RR could help make up for it, that doesn't necessarily mean that it won't help guys who are already fast. I only have 2 points in it, so I can't really attest to how well it works, but if I had to bet I would say that the description is worded that way because RR would be very important to slower guys because they need the boost. It's not very important for someone who is already a burner, but that doesn't mean it doesn't work.

I was thinking on this subject and thought of something.
Do you think RR would help with Creative RR?
I know in the RL, if you are a great RR you can throw in creative moves and still run great, but the wording RR make it seem like it wouldnt be the case.
What are y'alls thoughts on this.
If i were going to set my WR to creative RR, do you think Maxing RR would help to make the creative running of the route better? (Not taking into consideration of agility, cause i will have that on point)

No. RR adds whatever bonus it does to normal route running to creative route running so I'm not sure it will help you fake someone out (unless RR is some sort of defender freeze fake). The fakes are going to come from uber high agility, HF and Juke. If you have those high you are most likely better off investing more in agility than RR.
