Has anybody tried to get Run Block Power close to 100? If so, did it work well?

I'd say you wouldn't have enough tech to use all that power well enough. Their BRB would likely keep you from engaging them well enough to pancake is what I'd worry about.

100 power doesn't work as well as 100 tech. But 100 tech and power works pretty nice if you don't need speed on your oline.

What about something like 85/85 tech/power? Just seems like you cant get power very high with 100 tech.

Should be good in theory. Not sure it's better than 90 tech and 70 power.

I've not had much issue with 80 tech and 60 power. I like my lineman to move decent though. Could easily get 90/60 I'd say and still be ok at other things. I use less power on my Ts cause not a lot of DEs spending in Hold Ground that I see. Let's me add some more to pass block tech. Seems to work ok though I know there are better builds people use.

Try power builds. Let me know how it goes lol

High Power needs higher Balance to make up for the lack of Technique.

Seems like it would work better with power rushers going off tackle, helps open up the edge more. The problem is I prefer 70+ conditioning on all my OL so that would only leave room for 60-70 RBTech.

I like power because of Get Low SA. That is awesome when Gold fires and the DLineman is pushed back several yards. It opens up huge holes.

Wait your 100 tech builds didn't already have high power? And you ran a GL offense?

Only my center has 100 tech because he is a S*. My others have tech in the 90s. It's difficult to get high power and close to 100 tech. What do you think high power is?

If I ran a primarily gl offense it would be with 100 tech and 85-90 power on super star builds and 95/75 on non superstar builds. Especially easy now with the cap boosts and natural trait.

Granted one might not even want to anymore since the off-season change to running but maybe someone goes full on elusive gl running.

That is pretty much what I have. Although I am thinking about bringing up a PU Guard with 88 tech and 87 power.

I've gone 90/90 with meh results. But granted less than ideal conditioning level. It's too bad they crushed the skill prices on blocking because it would be fun to do 100/100 and add 100 conditioning.

Natural trait isn't that much better than Meathead when making an all run power guard. And it is much more expensive.

My guard will have 88/88/74 power/tech/cond
