which would you prefer...

balanced str/blk/spd/agi / first step or quick cut with focus on getting to and holding your block

or

high strength, speed, agility, pancake, and totally ditch blocking, focus on racking up pancake after pancake.

consider the player isn't boosting, so will be vastly underleveled down the road but hopes to make up for this disadvantage by not needing SAs, stamina, confidence, or really much vision either.

Pancakes on ST often result in the blocker running off to another defender while the pancakee gets up and makes the tackle.

The first one. Just holding the block should be enough as long as the rest of the special teams does their job.

Vision might become important in later seasons if the special teams plays are taken off the rails.

Out of interest, why did you choose a G and not a C for one of your ST blockers if you don't value confidence?

Also - are you going to put all equip in speed?
