No one makes a S* FB (ok, it's been tried but the results are meh). The plays generally suck too.

So drop FB to a 50 point FLEX position. This will probably create more S* FB's which wouldn't be a bad thing. Maybe people will even find some plays to make them good at.

if they ever get around to making the diamond formation worth a crap it would be great. so much wasted potential for seasons now.

I agree, FB is more like a OL that slows down your runner, well one this game.

Agree with everything above.

With the new Changelog for S21, please change FB's to 50 FLEX.

I have a feeling if they do this then DTs will be upped to 100 Flex.

Agreed 100 flex is overpriced for a player that only plays in half of the offensive formations.

I would love a S* FB, if he were 50 flex i would create one.

I am sure FBs are 100 flex due to being "skill" position. Their problem is more about their effectiveness as a "skill" player. They are best suited as blockers as most FB runs simply get devoured by quality defenses. Maybe some of these new FB runs out of diamond are decent (haven't tested any of them) but I am not sure it would even be enough to warrant having a quality rushing FB and foregoing the block skills. For those reasons, I agree that a FB should probably be a 50 flex costing player.

A FB is basically an OLineman in this game and thus should be Tier 50.

There are 7 Tier 100 position types. Guess what % are S* FB? No where close to 14%. I doubt even 1%.

Non star FBs are glorified OG's... they are just lead blockers and its not worth to waste a s* on them.

With one exception, an OG sees the field in all offensive formations, a FB is an over-glorified OG that costs twice as much and plays half the snaps.
