People are seriously undervaluing run blocking traits on their WR. My WRs can also run block effectively, so if my opponent comes out in dime or nickel, I can easily run it down their throat because their CBs are getting manhandled by my WRs. If they go heavy, you can pass no problem
BTW, Vincent Jackson is the perfect player for this strategy. He run blocks like a TE, and he has good height, speed, and catching stats. I put him in the slot to try to create a mismatch. He'll steamroll corners in the run game, hold his own against LBs, fly by slower LBs, and he's got 7 inches on smaller faster guys like Mills.

Interesting. So are you putting Zone block on them? Or power run? Or one of those chems?

Cool thanks for the info. Maybe I should take all my APs off my WRs, and go all in on RBK APs.
