Tarik Cohen Theme Builder

How is this card and is he worth the grind? Will this card be top of the line for a while other then trucking or should i just hold off? I am asking because i have 85 Lindsey who has been solid and plays much better for me then 83 Barkley so i sold him but i do want 2 solid running backs. Looking at Cohens stats compared to Lindsey he looks better in almost everything.

I am asking because my time can be limited with family and work so the Theme Builder grind is tough so i want to be sure i am using my time wisely especially since i am going very little money spent this year, I havent even touch Journey yet , I am pretty much focusing on doing some of these first....I have done Kittle, A. Mack and Amos, just started Short but considering switching to Cohen and doing Short later.....(also plan on doing Slay, maybe Cooper, Joyner and Miles, open to other suggestions)

David Montgomery and Mike Davis are the traditional starters for Cohen. Doesn't mean he won't be used to the point where he'll get upgrades, and given the buzz he's getting to start I'm sure EA will take notice and flaunt his card in packs, but he's at best a player that will see 50 percent of the snaps any given week for the Bears.

Cohen has been playing well for me so far. Use him as your 3rd down back, pickup someone with more strength/carrying to complement him.

 Pretty sure with Howard gone he’s the starter bud.

All theme builders cost about 50-60k if you go by the coin/tp ratio. I’ve got 6 of em and have only played the first solo to obtain the powerups

According to my own spreadsheet taking all ratings into account a better investment would be Mark Ingram.  He’s an elusive enough back and he has some pretty good power so he won’t get hit sticked outta his shoes.  However if you want one power, one elusive than def go Cohen.

As others have mentioned the jukebox is fun with him. He's fumbled a few times for me, but it hasn't been a 'problem' for me. I thought he was worth the grind... 91 Agility is just really awesome at this early stage of the game.

 he’s just like Odell rn but cheaper. I have em in the slot or sub for Odell or Tyreek when tired

 I am experiencing this right now as well.  I do think he will get an upgrade though, so it is hard to pass him up.  In the end, I have a feeling that I will be glad I did this set.  For now though, I would prefer a power HB.

Sounds good, one negative but the rest positive. I’m sure he will get upgrades so probably worth doing now. His small size and jukes are probably a ton of fun

He is my receiving back behind Zeke and is a ton of fun.  Haven’t had any fumbling problems with him.  I cover the ball and am decent and avoiding the hit sticks.  Every back I’ve seen coughs it up when they get popped while spinning, juking, or running upright.  

Did Cooper as well.  Planning to do Kittle and maybe one more.

mlane43701

IMO, he'll likely get an upgrade this year, so why not go ahead and be ready when he gets that upgrade.  Grind it out now and use that power up pass somewhere else.

Speedy4451

Oh the fumbles!  But he is low key op at this point in the game

Prince1284

What is the best X-factor to put on him?  Is First One Free any good?
