Any tips on an Elusive back?

Not clear on all the stats yet.

Thanks in advance

I think the caps for quickness, footwork and elusive running are too low, if you really want to do an elusive HB. It looks more like a balanced build.

You don't just want speed. Add some agility and awareness.

For skills, go with:
sprinting, quickness, conditioning, elusive running, balance, footwork, carrying awareness & grip

Add in a little receiving skill as you go if your OC throws to you.

Don't say this, it depends on the offense the HB is being ran in.

This is why I keep saying "Talk to your OC" as your primary source of build advice.

For example, in my rookie team's offense, I'm not worried that much this season about elusive running, but am very much wanting raw speed. I've limited my early running game to places where I can either use the play design or blocking to turn the play into a footrace between the ball carrier and any defenders who might make a tackle.

At the same time, I know fully well that my design won't work on either of the two other teams I coach because the OC for those teams uses his HB's very differently in the run game.

So, again, talk to your OC and ask him how he's going to use your guy. If you're on a CPU team, go read the board and look for what teams are asking for so you'll be the right guy for them. But just trying to build a generic "elusive" back isn't necessarily going to work unless you find a team that needs that generic elusive back.

downvotes =/= wrong lol and sry Stooge and EvilSA, but you two are wrong.

So the caps are not too low? Quickness, footwork and elusive running are at 62. sprinting is at 84. Even with the cap boosters the first three seem to be too low, if you want to build an elusive back IMO. I think it is a good balanced build, but the power running at 66 is higher than the elusive running = no real elusive build.

Nope.

Me neither

Jampy just said people are wrong instead of giving some form of a fact why he is right rather than everyone else is just wrong becuase he doesn't believe them

Just ignore Jampy, she doesn't know what she's doing..

I clearly explained my point...

You must just be repeating someone, you have no idea what you are saying.

I think I know what I'm doing, so you should shut the hell up and take a backseat. Maybe you can learn something.

You can quote all the scrims that you want, when you're high enough in the ladder maybe you'll get to play us and see how much we stomp all over your scrub team..

If you aren't ready don't send the scrim. Ladder doesn't mean crap, AGD2D will smack that team like we've been doing since you created it.

IF you wanna talk crap, beat us.
