Quality FBs in the draft?

Has anyone found one in the rookie drafts? 75+ SPD, 80+ ACC, 80+ STR? Other helpful, but upgradeable attributes, such as 80+ RBK/IBK, 80+ TRK, receiving skills, carrying? Any Fasts or Stars?

Re: Quality FBs in the draft?

I've been able to get fullbacks who get to 90+ within a season, but not the ratings you're looking at. I just want a blocker who can get 20 catches a season sneaking out of the backfield on play action plays....and he's usually the third read on those.
I look primarily for IBK, then RBK, then STR, AWR. Those are the attributes I upgrade first and only look at catching and carrying later.

Re: Quality FBs in the draft?

Running with your FB in the NFL these days is really only good for throwing off the defense or if your trying to keep your HB on the field while he's very tired but still call a running play. I call FB runs maybe 2-3 times a game, almost always on third and short, or fourth and short..but too far away for a sneak.

Re: Quality FBs in the draft?

I found a 80 spd, 82 str, 83 trk, 80 cth, 77 pbk, 64 rbk FB with fast dev in the 6th in my online CCM. Quickly got his RBK in the 80's, now it's 92 in his 2nd season. Even with Christine Michael, he's my short yardage and 3rd down back due to his 77 pbk and 80 cth. As a rookie he had 126 yards and 9 TD on 31 att, to go with 10 catches, 100 yards and 2 TD's, he doubles as my 2nd TE too so he plays a H-back roll for me. And since most peple don't use FB's much he easily made the PB. And I have 2 FB's since I use pistol full house at times. Also, I've found that Far FB Dive is the best short yardage run in the game if you have a good FB, if not sub your backup HB in.

Re: Quality FBs in the draft?

Thanks, Godgers, very encouraging. I'll check out Far FB Dive, although I'm not sure there's a better short yardage play than 01 Trap...

I have no idea what the hell mham is doing, I wouldn't click on that sheet. Admins should probably do something.

Re: Quality FBs in the draft?

Wait 3rd down back works for you?? Everytime I have one set he only ends up playing like 2 3rd downs the entire game and usually because my starter is already out due to fatigue in the first place.
