In some Pro plays the fullback drops into the flat for passes and TE for the most part have better stats for doing that anyways so if you can find a really powerful blocking TE you are set at fullback in a PRO.
I agree about the importance of a solid FB. I've tried converting TEs, fast OTs, power RBs, I mean everything. In a pinch, a converted blocking TE will work, but far and away the best thing to do is to look for athletes. I found a 4* athlete my 6th year into my dynasty and then a 5* crusher at FB the next year. Combined with a good blocking TE and a power RB, my rushing attack was unstoppable.

Re: Pro Style Offense

Undersized centers and guards make great goal-line fullbacks. They are pretty useless in the passing game, though.

Re: Pro Style Offense

My pro style offense usually has a pass first QB, but I prefer him to have a little speed if possible, a quick RB and one bruising RB, one tall possession WR and a couple of speed burners, a run block first line, a tough fullback, and a TE who can block and catch passes.

Good point on the athlete conversion to FB. Perhaps my first few seasons I will run a singleback offense as I recruit then groom a good FB (either ATH or TE conversion). Once the squad is ready I can move into my favored setup of pro formation.

I will run a Heavy-Run Pro-Style with some pistol and some unbalanced lines. QBs will not be hard to find for me, since I will just need game managers with at least 70 Speed. All types of RBs and TEs. I will most likely used undersized guards as FB. I wont use FBs in the pass games or much at all besides blocks.

This is true, some athletes can make great fullbacks but athletes take an extra step then tight ends do when figuring out if they will work. TE's just stand out a little easier as possible fb's but the good thing about athletes is that they are generally not as desired by other teams right away in comparison to tight ends so you can leave them to one of your later recruits and focus your time on other positions earlier on in the season.

Re: Pro Style Offense

Like alot of people it was pretty easy to find the 2 and 3* blocking TE last year to move to FB. They was just seeing this early ahead of time. I hope they have improved the FB recruits this year though in real life this isnt a big position anyway. Also UGA moved a backup TE to FB this year so it does happen in real life.

Re: Pro Style Offense

I started a new dynasty with Clemson and I had the number 5 fb with me as his number 1. B speed and accel. I really, really, really want him. Perfect short yardage back and option fullback. Figured I would pair him with my incoming 6'3'' 243 lb QB I have coming in. We so excite.
