TE, no matter what their stats, will never ever be able to run the ball effectively in this sim. They will get 1.5 YPC consistently. A blocking back can play at RB and a FB (FB still gets some carries in this sim and I'm adding more fullback dives to certain playbooks) without being a hindrance to their team. If you want a pure TE you get a blocking TE, but if you want versatility you want a blocking back.
Well, and correct me if I'm wrong, I can currently play a blocking TE in the slot in one formation, be required to list him as a FB and then he's effective running the ball in the other formations. Correct?
