Madden NFL 17 Guide › Madden Ultimate Team

Top 5 Halfback Items in MUT

Most players utilize a run-first offense early in the season while they are still looking to build confidence in their passing game. This year, both power backs and elusive backs can be effective with the right play calls. Consider grabbing a backup who is a solid receiver for third downs. However, if you get one of these elite backs, you should let him carry the load for the offense.

Item 5

Matt Forte

Forte is a great back who can do many things when given the opportunity. If you can build a talented offensive line around him, use his power to beat the secondary for long gains. Forte is an every-down back who can take your team pretty far.

Item 4

Jamaal Charles

Jamaal Charles is an excellent back, and not just because of his breakaway speed. Charles also has excellent hands out of the backfield and is one of the best route runners in MUT. If he gets matched up against a linebacker, he will win almost every time.

Item 3

Doug Martin

Doug Martin is extremely agile and has the speed to match. He can easily cut corners and change lanes in a heartbeat, making him difficult to track. Overall he is a great value to any team.

Item 2

Adrian Peterson

Adrian Peterson can defeat tacklers with both power and elusive moves, which makes him one of the most versatile backs in Ultimate Team. To prevent fumbles, make sure to cover up the ball, and avoid taking unnecessary hits.

Item 1

Le’Veon Bell

Bell is a powerful runner with a great arsenal of moves to defeat tacklers. While most power runners tend to be straight-ahead-style players, Bell can quickly cut and change lanes. He also is an every-down back, which provides great value to any team.
