I have two MLB-type builds and one speed build that will be starting for my team. Is the speed build best used at LOLB or ROLB?

It's not really going to matter anymore (unless we get our depth chart changed to W OLB and S OLB).

Bort said in his announcement that teams are going to have the ability to choose which side they want the TE on on pass plays whether he goes into coverage or stays in to block.

I think most teams are instinctively going to want the TE on the strong side on running plays (for the extra lead block) and on the weak side for pass plays (to have a balance between the HB/FB block).

I'm not sure how it is going to play out at all. Best of luck. Sorry for not being a real help....

Actually that was a great help, I hadn't thought about it in the context of the OAI changes yet with being able to flip the TE around.

Most DCs are a bit ... concerned about the new changes for exactly the reason Orange mentioned. Whichever side you put your speed OLB on, the other team's OC is going to know about it since your depth chart is public.

Isn't whatever side the TE lines up considered the strong side. As an aside, it would be nice if you could controll which LBer lines up on which side of the ball, if you want a specific CB to match up to a specific WR, etc. Oh, well, thats what makes this game challenging and fun.
