I see you only have 80 in strength on the dot, how does the dot perform with that much strength? The bfb dots and the suggestions I have always seen the dots have 102+ strength on them.

80 STR is plenty....dot is just designed to get outside quickly and engage the first blocker long enough for the HB to get by. Any more STR is just a waste. On long runs he has the speed to move off the 1st block and engage another defender.

also as far as the extra sa's it cost 35 bt's to add that first sa, I believe then that doubles costing 35 bt's to add the second sa, am I correct?
The 2nd sa that I would add would be aura would it be more beneficial to not add aura and use the extra sk pts to pump up vision. stamina and conf a little more?

I'm not sure about the cost of adding a second SA, but it should show you the cost right there on the screen. Go check!

That said, I'm a believer in Aura+Pummel. It's DEFINITELY good for O-line dots because they're so close to D-line dots all the time, and FBs play close enough to the line to make it useful too.

35 for the 1st SA then 70 for the 2nd sa

Not 100% sure if he (wally) meant adding the true 1st SA or not because the 1st SA is free at the beginning of the build... then it's;

BFB's have to block both inside & outside so Strength should be about 102. Blocking should be mid 90's as Qillar already said. Agility 87-88 is enough. I like speed between 139-141 with EQ added. I don't use Aura on BFB's, only OL. I do use FS & Pummel though & always make sure I have 10 in Lead Block as well.

Yes that's what I am meaning theo, I took first step as my free sa the next two would be pummel then aoi if i decide I do go that route

As I said I can reach 95+ blocking but I would either have to use the blocking va or on my last aeq drop 5 in speed and add 5 in blocking. That would have the dot end up only at 135 speed then.

I am thinking I might do this if it pans out.
get the pummel as you say but wait on buying aoi until I find a team (hopefully a good running team) and decide then if it would be worth getting aoi of dumping that idea and using the sk pts I would of used and put them in vision, stamina and conf.

If I use the blocking va I will still have 42 va's to spread around and could actually dump workout warrior adding another 15 since the dot will already have 102 on strength

So you're talking of the following cost in BT's; 105 extra for the 2 extra SA's beyond 1st step...

and the following cost in SP's (at least this much); 90 SP's to raise all 3 extra SA's up to 10.
That's not counting any SA's in your SA tree. Just the extra SA slots.

Just giving you some numbers to work with when planing the build out.

Any build basically has to be set in the beginning & then follow through in hitting the numbers you set. Doing it after the fact is very hard to do & also costs you more SP's & BT's in the long run which leads to a lesser player. As I know a little something about running the ball, especially in the WL, you need your blocking built correctly as well as your PWR HB's to make it work. Feel free to PM me if you ever have a question about building a player because I normally don't post much on the forums as I usually don't have the time to do so.
