Is Hilgenberg effective at 259 lbs on Next gen?

Dude only weighs 3 lbs more than Bettis ....could he be an effective C? Right now I go with 87 Biadasz .

Definitely not worth powering up. If I was a bears themer I would prob just grab the 87

Yeah, his attributes look great  but I just don't think he's gonna be able to block a 320 lb DT

The pu version gets threat detector at 2ap.  Currently with the meta. That’s the best ability in the game

Good point but with the meta you have to assume everyone is running that zero blitz anyway and what's the point if your C is going to get run over because he's too small?

I'd also argue that it's not the best ability in the game because it only lights up on 3rd and 4th downs....and a skilled player can still get that loop blitz in if you don't know how to counter it, even if you know it's coming

Also, bluff blitz throws off threat detector. No offense intended but IMO  Honestly I don't think that ability is even top 10

He’s not great but also not bad. legends have problem being smaller oline than todays big guys.

Well at the moment you’re depending on EA to buff the zero blitz meta in the midst of a tourney. 
 

2ndly. 
bluff blitz still isn’t blitzing. 
 

threat detector shows who is blitzing innthe money downs.  I think 3 of the final 8 used it. 
 

and no one is lining up in dollar and 33 and 335  and bluffing blitz.

It’s been extremely handy To say the least.  Much better than wr ap that Doesn’t light up consistently.  
 

atleast I know I’m getting something g with this

I ran Linsley than Shatley and though that chart has them better I notice a difference with Hilgenberg.  Especially with the run game.  He plays better for me.  Haven’t run Tyler so I cannot speak on who Is better but I know he plays better than anyone I have ran at Center thus far.
