RBs who shed defenders

I love the way Jamaal Charles and LeSean McCoy have a tendency to roll/bounce/shake off of defenders. It seems like if you angle them to miss a defender's tackle just enough they can turn a hit into extra yards.

However, since I'm a few years into CCM and they're around 95 OVR, you'd need a kings ransom to aquire them in trade.

Are there any under-the-radar RBs like this?

Basically you are looking for high agility+elusiveness running backs.

Since you are a few years in, I would simply sort the running backs by agility and elusiveness and see if there are any lower end backs that are high in both.

I don't know how he is a few years in.. But I've always had success with Roy Helu Jr. from the Redskins. Also, Isiah Pead from the Rams. Both are good if you progress them yourself from the start. I don't know how they look if the CPU progresses them.

Nice, Helu is actually a FA so I'll sign him.

Ronnie Hillman from the Broncos comes to mind. Very young and quick.

I trade for LaMichael James as soon as I need a RB, just make sure to cover the ball up before a hit!

Yea and fight for extra yards trait. Then I work BCV so he is more slippery when hitting holes
