Obviously, Sprinting will take a hit. But what other skills would need sacrificed in order to make this special ability worth it?

Speed or Power?

Well. In this case, power. I'm intrigued by the morale benefits of punishing low-toughness CBs.

I'm also interested in Speed YAC builds. I can't imagine they'd come from 95+ Sprint builds but would seem more likely from higher balance builds that exploit Catch in Stride and sharp cuts from Route Technique to get just far enough from the CB to avoid having the pass contested.

The most consistent YAC builds I've seen have so much sprinting that they out run the defenders trying to dive at them and can't be caught. I have seen some power WRs that manage to break free a few times, but the speedsters seems to be the way to go for YAC...

I tried to do a power TE but it wasn't worth it because the SS and LBs guarding them almost always were excellent tacklers.

I am building Megetron for exactly this. He won't be terribly fast but fairly quick and max out power running. He will also be a dominating blocker. So he will demoralize the CB on run blocking and power rushing.

Golding Stiff Arm, YAC Attack and Catch in Stride. Ending with 74 balance.

I'd actually had a really similar idea, except less interested in blocking. What do you think about this?
