Anyone think strong base would help a pass rusher? Strong base coupled with strength pushes the O-lineman back opening the pocket, then you could use shed block and agility to remove the DE from the Oline block and use high speed to get to the QB.

The big question is whether a containment ability (strong base) would work with pass rushing.

I think you would want your player to be very strong. Something like 70 strength + strong base + 50 speed + 40 agility might fun to experiment with.

strong base is pretty far into the run stopper tree, so if you want it to be effective (like say lvl 7 ) you going to have to put lots of points into the first 2 run stopper not to mention you need points into pass rushing tree too. might be worth it later but going to take a while

well, I currently have 3 in Wall and 2 in Strong base, so down the line I guess I could go to 6 in strong base without adding anymore to Wall.

I also meet two of your suggestions and am not that far from three.
