I was just browsing thru builds and I came across this:

Strength: 157.1 (+55) ...........Blocking: 94.1
Speed: 69..............................Tackling: 8
Agility: 87.6............................Throwing: 8
Jumping: 8.4..........................Catching: 8
Stamina: 62.6 ........................Carrying: 8
Vision: 69.5............................Kicking: 8
Confidence: 68.1 ...................Punting: 8

Current Bonuses/Penalties
Attribute . . . . . . . . . . .Bonus
Strength ..............................+8.59
Blocking ..............................+7.06
Hold block chance ..............+12%

He's a 440 day, 79/82 build, 3 AEQ, seemingly normal, right?

Then how does he come up with a +8.59 in Strength? 102.1 natural Strength by my calculations gives him +4.59 via the VA route, but where does the other 4 points in strength come from?

Just curious but can't you purchase a temp bonus to any skill with BT's?

A +4 bonus costs 10 BT.

Thanks Sonic, but I'm not sure I'm convinced. I mean he's 440 days old, and we're in the off season still, the build isn't stellar, but it's solid, there's 3 AEQ, so the agent couldn't have had that many extra BT's , so why now? I'm going to keep an eye on the build heading into the regular season and we'll see what happens

I bet they did it thinking that it might work for a playoff game. but it won't, so the bonus is carrying through to the next regular season game.

It doesn't work for playoff games? Huh. Didn't know that one.

Okay, now I'm convinced. I never have any BT's left, so it never entered my mind that people even do that.

What Nexill said. It still amazes me how many people don’t know this.

TBH, I cannot remember the last time ever spent BT's for a temp bonus so it was a bit of info that was old and dusty and lost in the back of the remains of my mind.
