I have a power back on my rookie team but he's driving me crazy. Tons of strength to break tackles but when he gets the ball it's like he's standing in quick sand. Should I immediately pump up the speed or work on his agility.

Here's the build.

Powerbacks won't be effective till later in their careers. If built correctly they can be good. I would tell him to multi str with speed/agility/carry

Also, in my opinion it`s far better to go carrying first and then strength

How high should you bring carrying before you go to strength?

Also, where should you stop strength / carrying / agility / speed?

Thanks.

Depends on what order you are pumping up the skills. I'd suggest making sure that it was 90+ end-build for a true power back.

I have one level 19 back that I'm doing strength on first. Should I build to 90 strength, then carrying, then speed, with eq on speed?

I have a level 4 that I haven't assigned SP to yet. Should I start carrying and bring to 90?

Thanks. Haven't built new dots since like season 11.....

This. helps with moves like spin, HF, juke, and balance after a missed tackle.
