thank you theo...i was thinking something along those lines. 2 HB pieces...won't that be a waste with maybe 71 blk? would you go higher? how about str? and jmp?
You should be fine. WR's most heavyweight opponent will normally be a LB at best. More likely a DB (safety or CB). And very rarely a DE playing in the flat and the WR blocking for a screen.
My most recent Blocking/Receiving WR has 60 strength, 43 blocking, Hold Block chance or 18% (one piece + CEQ bonuses as well), and 15% Catch Ball. He does just fine blocking but I wish I'd pushed blocking a bit harder and he had a horrible shopping time for AEQ so I only ended up with 3 pieces. I've built better bit he's the best receiving WR that blocks that I've built. Usually I get the blocking right but come up short in the receiving department.
Some VA's to consider are Downfield Blocker and Outside Blocker. When you add up everything, size, strength, blocking, and all bonuses, against DB's and most LB's you'll have no issue blocking long enough to allow the rusher past. And that's really all you need.
