| Don't regret the Big Hand, in some ways it is even better now! Now this guy is even more adept at dodging into multiple tackle zones, scooping up the ball on a 2+ and getting back out again! Give this boy Leap and you have a real monster on your hand! |

I still fail to see how this is a waste. The Big Hand poses a different kind of threat than the leaper does now. And who is to say that both of them will last through the game. If you only have one of these kinds of players it is easier to defend against, but with two of them - it will be a nightmare!
Remember even with onoly two tackle zones, the Big Hand guy is going to pick up the ball easier than the Leaper. The big difference is that the Leaper will be able to get into tighter spots more easily. |

Definitely not a waste. You now have two real menaces to get the ball anywhere on the ground. That's BIG. Which one of them will your opponent try to kill? If they target one, the other one will get the ball and score. And vice-versa. The more threats you have on the field, the more likely it is that some of them will be on the pitch and cause mayhem.
The BH guy does need leap now though.
Work these two guys in tandem. The BH guy leaps on the ball (which is probably surrounded by opponents), pick-up the ball, dodges out, and hands-off/passes to the AG5 guy. Then the AG5 guy dodges around or leaps over the defence to dash towards the end-zone. The Block/Dodge/Side Step GRs and any other player that you have available move in to provide protection for the AG5 guy if he didn't make it to the end-zone. |

But you said before....

Any way you look at it guy, you are way better off this way. But I think Cramy hazs laid it out very well as to how you now have an awesome tag-team threat. But you can always lament about the horns if you still don't want to listen to reason!  |

| The reason he didn't have to is I have a thrower with AG4 and Block, and now that my best GR has AG5 the BH guy probably isn't gunna be in a position to get the ball unlees these two get taken out. |
