How important is vision for a blocking FB?

imo there are better thing to spend your points on.

It's good to get around 20-25. Too many times have I seen our FB with low vision block someone who's already blocked instead of the guy coming behind him.

Excellant point.

It's really good against blitzing defenses, particularly coupled with the Spot Blitz SA. You can spot the man blitzing through the OL much better.

I like to see it get up to around 30. The MLB blitz is a great example of a play where vision means the difference between the FB being useful and just being a wasted player on the field.

I noticed that once I got to the mid-30's, my FB targeted LBs downfield better. Also, picking up blitzes better.
