There are still a lot of good FB's out there. The trick is to find one that not only blocks good, but that also runs well and catches too.

Leonard was the man. No doubt. I always pulled for Rutgers due to him and Rice.

Odds are I take Jourdan Brooks a HB on Rutgers and move him to FB just because of his size and speed. He's 6'2, 255lbs and runs a 4.5 40. Corcoran and Morales are okay, but I'd rather have a running threat infront of whoever I start at HB if it is Mason Robinson or Kordell Young.

i think you is a great runner. if i was you, i would have him at hb and get him the ball in the flats also because he is a great catcher out of the backfield( way better than rice was). you should have a great dynasty with them if you choose to play for them.

Truth be told Ray Rice was a solid pass catching option, it was just a matter that they never threw to him. The passing attack changed last year from dink and dunks to the RB/FB/TE to vertical passing to Britt and Underwood. Throwing underneath last year just didn't happen as much as it used to.

From screenshots I know Young and Robinson are both rated the same so it will basically be a matter of who I preform better with that will receive the majority of the carries.

This is one aspect I'm disappointed in with EA in 09 (from the demo). The fullbacks look very dumbed down and cautious to block anyone. The lead blocker is still in the game so I might have to utilize that on a pitch or a play I see some defender who might come free.
