What attributes help linebackers get through or off of blocks ?

not getting blocked seems to be the best answer. otherwise, huge agility seems to work for defensive ends at least.

Speed to avoid blocks in the first place IMO

I understand that speed will usually get you around the blocks, but but on inside blitzes once my guy gets locked up with the blocker he usually never gets loose to go pursue the ball. Just wondering if adding to blocking help at all or if putting into the Shed Block SA would help?

True...but they aren't facing the ridiculous strength that Cs and Gs have...also agility helps more for breaking pass blocks rather than run blocks...I would say ridiculous agility + a LOT of strength, which of course would cost more skill points than it would be worth...short answer, block avoidance is your best bet.

If your talking about pass plays, up your agility and pump shed block and you'll find that helps...enough to be worth it? I don't know...
