I have been training jumping and have seen an increase in tackling radius. Hows he doing overall? I was contemplating retiring him after this year, but he is the fist guy I built so I would like to keep him as long as I can.

Strength: 50.04 Blocking: 19.19
Speed: 77.96 Tackling: 49.26
Agility: 57.11 Throwing: 9
Jumping: 28.76 Catching: 26.98
Stamina: 44.06 Carrying: 9
Vision: 50.73 Kicking: 7
Confidence: 34.46 Punting: 7


what's his equipment in? if all speed then i'd take agility to the next cap. keep training jumping.

Eq is in speed, I still have 3 pcs of lvl 32 to upgrade, which I will probably throw in speed. Then I'll use futre SPs on agility, and train jumping and/or catching.

Thanks

Any Help here would be HUGELY appreciated:

What do you think of my build so far?

Strength: 25.26
Blocking: 15.25
Speed: 60.25
Tackling: 33.96
Agility: 49.96
Throwing: 8
Jumping: 22.25
Catching: 22.25

9 points of my Vision is off custom and equip, should I change that to speed and get up to 70+ speed? Versus keeping the extra vision, also where should I go from here I'm lvl 22 I believe might still be 21, but 22.... what you think Rod?

packrabid are you planning to stay with the same team next season? they seem to be doing well so far this season. if so, talk to your d-coordinator to see what he thinks would help the most.

otherwise take speed to the second cap and agility to the first cap if it's not there already...you need to tell us stats without eq, rather than with eq.

I guess I screwed up a bit. I guess then I should be putting all my SPs into skill and agility until I get to the second cap.

Not sure why you think you screwed it up, other than what you are going to do with the agility I would say get some more stamina, around mid thirties (maybe train jumping and stamina). If you are referring to your str I wouldn't worry about it, might be big down the road when Bort decides to change the game (again!) and you won't have to dump any points into it. Good luck.

you didn't screw up you are coming along very nicely. Train jmp/tck, get speed to second cap, then try to cap tackling before the playoffs (if you haven't boosted)...you will be in good shape.

ahh go ahead and put that 1 point in vision asap if you can after next level, because 2 more levels and it will take 2 SP to go up one point, and at some point in the future you will want 55 or 60 vision.

I'm curious what yall would recommend for my LB. This is the first time that I've ever posted a build for advice. Level 35, plays LOLB, equip is in speed and agility, no SA's.

Strength: 52.97
Speed: 74.7
Tackling: 49.91
Agility: 68.1
Jumping: 38.78
Catching: 21.4
Stamina: 34.94
Vision: 53.08
Confidence: 25.08

Currently working on a swat ball/speed AE since the only SA's I'm considering investing in are shed block and swat ball.

Hopefully I didn't completely bork this guy. I was planning to build him to be a MLB tackling machine. Maybe a bad idea? Currently training sp/agi to about 20~25 then going to cap those.

Strength: 12.32 Blocking: 11
Speed: 12 Tackling: 49.32
Agility: 15.32 Throwing: 8
Jumping: 11 Catching: 11
Stamina: 14.32 Carrying: 9
Vision: 15.32 Kicking: 8
Confidence: 13.32 Punting: 8

yes, a bad idea. not completely borked necessarily...but you can't be a tackling machine if you never get to the ballcarrier. tackling just doesn't need to be real high. i see it proven every game that high tackling and capped speed and agility just doesn't do for anything other than an average player.
