Nerves of Steel?

Would allow him to receive the ball double marked and blitz out...

If you use him as a receiver this seems to be a nice option.

I'm still really torn on this one, so I think I'll turn this topic into a poll, and here are my thoughts on the current suggestions;

Block - A great choice and what I would have picked without doubles. An st4 blodger running back is great, but I just don't want to waste the doubles.

Jump Up - He really doesn't get knocked over all that much, and I generally only use him to mark when I have to. Combined with AV7 and the position he plays on both sides, I think this would be mostly wasted.

Pass, Accurate, NoS - I really don't throw the ball honestly with this team. 12 GP and only 3 CP - mostly end of game/half throws when I couldn't score. Undead just doesn't lend itself to the passing offense, IMO.

Frenzy - As I think of it more, this does have more value. Even without block, 2D frenzy for a safety is nice, and makes your opponent play their offense a little differently. The problem is frenzy, especially without block is a real liability on offense for a running back sense you have to follow up. I could go with this and make my other ghoul a running back instead of course.

Break Tackle - Somewhat useful dodging on 2+ as opposed to 3+ generally. Still, seems a little underpowered.

Mighy Blow - Would work out similarly to frenzy in many ways, and I'd probably rather take Frenzy.

I'd love to take Stand Firm, but obviously I can't.

I guess I'm leaning back towards Frenzy after all, even though it would change this guy's roll alot on offense...

You'll never get a passing game if you don't take Accurate for your Ghouls on a double (not that I recommend it in this case).
