Shed Block. Diving Tackle, Swat Ball. In that order. Honorable mention Aura of intimidation. All the rest aren't worth anything i.m.o.

depends entirely on the scheme, build, and type of player you are.

If the defense that you're playing on has a lot of fast players on it, then Snarl>Aura. If the players aren't that fast, then Aura>Snarl.

I say this because Snarl relies on you actually hitting the ball carrier, so if you can play in a 3-4 and have 4 LBs all laying snarling hits on the ball carrier, he'll be jello before long. If, on the other hand, your LBs aren't fast enough to actually GET to the ball carrier, then their aura will still probably reach them, making them easier to tackle for whoever gets to them first.

How about Tunnel Vision from AE for a blitzing LB?

I have a piece of AE with +1 agility and Tunnel Vision for an OLB build which I was considering getting but it's $81k.

Agree with everything but aura of intimidation, it sucks imo.

So is Monster Hit and or Big Sack worthless as well? I've got a choice between Adv EQ that helps one or the other (with a +1 agility on both). I've also got 24 bonus tokens so I'll be able to upgrade the piece 3 times and add +1 on the SA. Thoughts?

Str, Ag, and Vis are all 50+ natural and I've got 60+ speed.

So is it worth buying the CE SA for a coverage LB? If so which tree?

I just got a First Step AEQ yesterday, so we'll see how that works. It's a shame my guy doesn't blitz or drop into coverage a lot. After two or three upgrades, that piece would be invaluable. I just wish there was a way I could bequeth it to my new LB that will eventually replace him.

Most of the points I spent on SAs this year went into Shed Block. I pumped up my AoI last season near the end of the season. If you go back and look at his game stats, you can pretty much see where I boosted him and put SP into it.
