I thought I had a plan, but I'm at a crossroads on a couple of things.

1. Not sure why his effective level is behind. I took Kicking to 81. Is that why? Mistake? ALGs will roll him over the 10th cap next level up, that should help.
2. Is confidence to 77 enough? Higher?
3. After that, should I follow the archetype and 4th or 5th cap Vision. OR, Strength to 77 first?
4. Secondary training: Agility? Jumping? Speed? Cap one before you move to the next? Or train 'em up evenly?
5. Once and for all, are the two CN and BB pieces enough? Automatic?

Fire away.

Effective level is not bad.

You are being compared to kickers with previous ALG's of 1 point to kicking and confidence. So no matter what you do you will have a VERY difficult time breaking even with your effective level because you are being compared to kickers with old ALG's.

Confidence to 77 is enough, you should finish with upper 80's confidence which should be good enough.

3. No answer as I'm not experienced enough with kickers to answer this for you.

4. You should multi train your entire career to end up with 3 AEQ's.
Use multi to get Agi and Jumping up to mid 50's with no SP invested, and get stam up to 20, throw in speed and tacklign intermittently, but they aren't that important mid 30's will be high enough, 40 will be more than enough. You'd be better off tossing your 4th attribute (str, or vis) into your multi train and getting a few SP's out of it.
By doing this you will be able to 77 cap your 2nd, 3rd, and 4th because almost all of your SP's will go into your first 4 attributes with just enough left over to get all pertinent SA's to 10 (CN and BB).

5. You want 3 pieces of AEQ, if nothing else for at least the +3 to kicking, CN and BB are good starts and are the more useful SA's, your 3rd piece could be invested in either of these, I would prefer BB, but it's fine in Calm Nerves as well, because diminishing returns will mean you won't get THAT much more benefit out of your 2nd piece.

Automatic is pretty debated, Puma did a study and found no statistical difference between a kicker with Automatic and a kicker without, but his study was done in the first season of the kicker's career's... but the rate at which kickers make extra points appears to be static, irrelevent of all other attributes, especially once kicking, and confidence, and vision get up to normal levels... so it would appear that the SA is most likely not going to help you.
