What’s our preference on RBs this year? (Next gen)

What’s the move with running backs on next gen this year? I have yet to really invest in a running back so I’m wondering if when I do am I better off with a power back like Najee/Henry or more of a speedy elusive back like Saquon, Dalvin, etc. I know so far I feel like juking on next gen isn’t very good so I’m starting to think maybe power backs will be the move this year

If you hold sprint and juke it does more like a jump cut. If you aren't holding sprint, you do more of a stutter juke, which can be more useful if you're trying to navigate through a hole at the LOS, whereas the more aggressive juke is better in the open field.

Moestart is who I am using currently.

Power. Juking feels clunky

Trying to be patient. Started with Alexander and then moved to Tomlinson this week. Not thrilled with either for my style. Will try David Johnson next. I know I won’t be able to afford Saquon.

Same here, like I said I haven’t invested into any HB just yet until I figure out what’s good but so far I’ve hated the 83 Zeke and am just using Nyheim Hines for now since he has 85 speed which is pretty solid for occasional runs

I think a zeke/ saquon type of back is best this year it’s just that zeke was too slow. I 100% preferred power backs every madden for the last few years but now it seems like someone like David Johnson who’s a little all around (but you need top speed) is a good choice

Power still I believe.
