I was originally a left guard but was put at right guard on the team I joined last year? I am getting reversed pancaked quite a bit. I'm not sure if its because I am a pass blocker at a run blocker position or is my build off? With my 15 boost points I can put 2 into strength. Should I get confidence up now instead? I spent the offseason working on speed, but will probably go back to 3 or 4 training during the season. Thanks for any help.

You chose Pass Blocker archetype and then invested in STR first anyway? That's silly. ;[

Leave Strength alone, maybe stick one last point in Blocking (would hit the seventh cap at 81), definitely take Agility to 77 if not 81. If you take both of those to 81, that'll take another seven levels to hit. In the meantime, you can train Speed/Stamina/Confidence -- 4x multi-train with Vision or one of the majors. Ensure you get Stamina and Speed to 60 by the end of his career (not a difficult task) and you can grab an SA or two at the end. Confidence is fine for now and will be at a good value by end-of-career, Vision is already higher than it'll ever need to go.

You might also consider trying to train STR once or twice around still. It'll take you more than a full season to squeeze an extra point out of it but the relative SP value is still there (I think) and your major attributes are so low they need all the help they can get. :/
