I silghtly disagree with Ball Hawk for ROLB, but that might just be the scheme. Also, as much as I'd like to endorse the tackling VAs for ROLBs, I can't really see taking them if you pass rush a lot. Well, maybe for stopping the outside run, but other than that they have limited practical use.

Eh, who am I kidding, VAs for ROLBs suck.

I still might consider quick, look at it this way, if you put 15 points into it and have agility at 68, thats 3 points. But since its at the 4 cap, thats equivalent to 12 skill points, or 3.4 levels.

Seems worth it to me in that sense, we were just spoiled that we got so many skill points before.

MLB looks about right...
Damn you Natural leader taking my 15 points away from Power Tackler!
Power Tackler+Helmet Crash+Monster Hit= Yay for Season 10

No one thinks that taking Fearsome at ROLB for the "hurry pressure" is worth it?

I haven't tried it out, tbh. My worry with fearsome is that it may actually reduce sacks if the QB hurried the throw much more often.

I decided to try out Goal Line Stand, but I'm playing in a 3-4. I don't think I would have taken it if I was playing as a 4-3 LB. It has real limited avilability but +30% (+18 points if 2nd capped) to Strength, Tackling and Agility should make a big impact when it does fire.

I put 15 into it on my LB'er. Probably shouldnt have but there isnt much out there worth a damn.

I think Clutch should be added to all those - could make a huge difference in short yardage situations.

Only problem with clutch is we cant actually see when it works...
But i guess that goes for Natural Leader and Power Tackler too. You just kind of assume that it works and hope that on 3rd down something amazing happens
