How do you figure your agility is far to low

Everyone who has posted so far should take a minute or two to read up on build tactics. To the OP, no, that's a bad example.

Not to rain on anyone's parade, but with the position slots, I am not sure how valuable 'balanced' HB's are. As an OC, if I am running a play that requires blocking, I am going to throw in a HB that has that capability. Same for a run. A balanced HB might be good for a backup.

The problems are, your vision is too low to be a good receiving HB or pick up a blocker. Your speed isn't fast enough to get outside and your strength isn't high enough to be an up-the-gut runner.

I have a speed HB that is level 26. His main stats are below:

STR - 28
Block - 22
Speed - 95.93
Agi - 63.93 (investing points into this now)
Vision - 51.93
Catching - 30.8

So obviously I am an elusive back but that is what you are going to be up against when an OC is deciding who to use to go to the outside.

And to be perfectly honest, if it were me making the choice, I would put a str FB in the HB slot to block over using your HB because the strength differential is so high.

Just my two cents.

Once you get to know the game a bit more and get better at building players you'll find combo backs can do very well. Fast enough to run by d-line guys, shifty enough to get past linebackers/sometimes break those tackles, and powerful enough to power through the secondary. If you can build a half way decent player, you can get them to do that.

That's a fair response. Are the OP stats good enough for that?

Eh, sort of. It's not a good build if that's what you're asking. Off the top of my head I can't say what exactly what you'd want a combo build to look like at that lvl.

But later on you'd want to see something along the lins of...

73 strength/speed
68 agility/carrying
and 50ish or so vision.

All those numbers being natural. They're also not going to get you a great back but should get you productive seasons. The better the builder, the better the player but those would be #'s to aim for imo.
