What do I do with this 6.95 agility FB?
 
So I picked up this guy, FB Kerry Duran in a recent draft where he was something like top 5 out of the entire class with his agility score.

26 sole/33 int/ 4.92 / 15 bench / 6.95 / 9'6 / 36 pdrill / 5'9, 238

In training camp, he goes 15/33->20/38 (+5/+5).

He converts to TE at 92%. Changing him before export shows him going to 22/44. But at that height, is converting him a good idea?

Leaving him at FB and applying the cut test, it looks like his run block stands to improve (22/44->22/47) as well as blitz pickup(24/44->24/46), avoid drops(20/40->20/43), and endurance(22/25->23/26). Meanwhile 3rd(24/68->26/67), route running(19/75->20/74), and ST(47/89->50/88) are trending down in potential slightly.

As a TE, his run block is 14/42->15/46. Other bars that show improvement are GD (35/38->36/40), Avoid Drops (13/38->13/42), Courage (31/39->34/42), Adjust (2/7->2/8), Endurance(20/24->21/25). Route running dips as before (12/76->13/75) but that's it.

His ratings would almost certainly be better as a TE than as a FB. On the other hand, his big play ability would only be 28.

I've some thoughts here but would be interested in others' opinions as well.

With the BPR rating at 28 as a TE, I say keep him at FB.

You might also want to convert him to an RB to have a look at his breakaway speed score, though I doubt there might be anything there either.

That's what I was thinking as well. Doesn't look like a real receiving threat at TE, and I'm thinking the ratings jump is tied to the RR a bit, which is not that useful to me if he isn't a big play threat.

I have another FB picked up as an UDFA, who went 15/37->19/37, and who has a 22/73 run block bar. That'll make things interesting.

And yea, checked the RB conversion and his breakway is 0.

It could be when you switch him he's further unmasked and that's why you see the improvement in bars
