Would appreciate some opinions re this player in my YA. He's only 17 therefore no hurry in deciding his future, but I like to have a rough idea of which position a player is destined for ....depending upon caps, of course.
Anyway .... 17 yrs old,"normal" non-physical skills for YA i.e. nothing very notable. Speed trained to 34 when a yellow cap appeared, so will red-cap at 38/39 probably. Intell=37. Teamwork=27 ....... nearly said "Consistency & Talent " also, but then I remembered that this is not -TOG-! 
Originally, I was thinking that if speed red-caps at approx 45 he'd be a Cornerback, but it won't ... so he isn't !. Now, I'm training strength to see the caps. At the moment, I'm thinking "Safety" , but maybe DT/NT depending on strength ??? |

i would take a look where his strength cap i personal like very strong DL so if he get yellow before 40 then i would play him on the transfer market
just my opinion  |

Often times when I get a player who will cap out in the high 30's in either strength or speed I end up making him into a TE or FB as those two positions require the most diverse set of skills and it is difficult to train all of their skills up to max. If you have a surplus of TE and FB then see if the strength cap is high enough to be on the line. In either case training strength is the next step to determining a possible position.

I was thinking similar to niner here. Especially the FB option. But Strength will determine his future...

I was thinking similar to both of you , but I do seem to have a problem with "visualising" future players in that quite often I look at my youth pull and instantly think "yeah, TE/FB", but unless Pete will add a new formation to the game "Shotgun 6 TE" or "Wishbone 3 FB" then pretty soon I'm gonna have a roster full of FB's and TE's .... or maybe I'll just flood the TM with my FB & TE collection.
but seriously, keep the suggestions coming because I like the cross-section of views, it always provides food for thought. Last edited on 2012-04-17 15:42:23 by sh8888 |

Yes....I have too many fb's and te's myself. Probably going to put some on the market soon. They are pretty good players....just kills me to sell them...

hi guys, i would like to use this thread to ask for another player in my YA. i´m still wondering what to do with this player... too slow for a RB/WR, too weak for playing at the line.
i feel like wasting him, if i set him as another "strength-capped-thought-it-could-be-an-OL" TE/FB. 
do you think he could be a good MLB? Age 18 Intelligence 34.3 Teamwork 36.4 Talent * Strength 34.0 yellow ! Speed 37.0 yellow ! Agility 12.5 Positioning 12.6 Tackling 13.1 Carrying 14.6 Footwork 13.8 Vision 10.8 Blocking 13.4 Catching 14.6 |

Looks to me like his Intel is too low to play MLB

If this speed is going to be capped higher, perhaps an OLB or a backup SF.

okay, his INT is really not that high. probably not MLB.
he just got the yellow! on speed and strength with the last time training it. i don´t really know, but maybe he ends up on 41 speed? |
