Strength shows up in the run and pass block formulas. The only formula that I have seen verified by the EA dev team is this one for the O line - Run block quality is determined as 60% RBK, 25% strength, 15% weight. With weight having slightly less effect past 300 pounds. And of course all formulas are subject to change without notice.
It does - but only a small % in EA’s different equations.
An example...

I'm pretty sure it helps to generate a push for/against the run game. I also know it matters a ton for WR's to hang onto passes without abilities.
For Oline and partially Dline, does strength even matter?
