Their really is no right way to train a TE, since we don't have any idea what a TE does in this game. so.... is 17 speed, 17 strength, 18 consistency, 18 teamwork, 12 intelligence, and 4.5 talent a good start then? lol

This is not good for a TE, you should sell him to me

Yeah, he is just awful, but I will be a nice person and take him off your hands after you buy him.

I am wondering why you would play him at TE LOL

Already have 2 better Speed strength guys as DE's lol

to me tight ends are prob the most important position for a well trained player.

they're the most consistent point of attack in the pass game, and admins have previously commented that they play a solid role in run blocking also.

primary skills wise, id say you need to concentrate on their catching first as this seems to have the biggest in game effect, but also make sure the players is naturally very strong as they need to match up to your linemen else they'll be a massive weak link in a run game due to the suspected zonal nature of the game engine.

a good tip is to often scout the players on the top teams for ideas/rough guidelines for successful builds.
