I have the option of buying a +3 Blocking +1 lead block shirt. My already has a +2 Blocking +1 lead block pair of gloves hes not wearing. Is 2 lead block worth the loss of 8 strength but increase of +5 (eventually more when I save enough bonus tokens) Blocking.

Currently stats are...
85 ST
36 SP
42 AG
40 STA
36 Vision
35 Con
65 Block

and 4 2 2 2 2
and 4 3 2 2 4 in the trees.

Level 32 OT.

Yep OT needs blocking anyway
I'd go for it

no. An OT will likely only lead block on screen plays.

Not true, Bort has said anytime you are blocking in front of a runner it's considered a lead block, so until the ball carrier passes the player you're lead blocking and trust me it works quite well for a RG.

Here's what I posted in this thread so long ago. http://goallineblitz.com/game/forum_thread.pl?thread_id=1066683&page=2

+1 Lead Block SA-worthless as it only works on lead blocking, not general blocking?


I'd hardly call this worthless for RG. There's quite a few times where they are the lead block, think about a sweep. Better yet, from the fingers of Bort.

Most are just situation specific, so if your guy finds himself in the situation described by the SA that the natural position might find themselves in, he'll be able to use it.

What is a lead block? Can a pulling guard benefit from the lead block SA or must a lead block come from the back field?

Pulling guard counts as lead block. Any time a player is heading downfield with the RB following him, it's a lead block.

>Not true, Bort has said anytime you are blocking in front of a runner it's considered a lead block,

that's not what he said at all.
