nope. Here's why you're at ROLB:
-You have a similar build to your MLB but he has 2 more points in D-gen.
-ROLB needs to be able to do more things: rush the passer, cover (moreso next season), and stop the run. The MLB is a more one dimensional player.
-Vision: you have much higher vision than the MLB, which means you'll react to plays quicker even if you're on the outside. Particularly run plays. The AI currently causes OLBs to drop back in coverage when not run focused and vision is the counter to this.
In short, on some other team, yes you would put up better numbers as a MLB, because you'd be in on more plays. But in order for the Fire to have the best team defense, they need Tyler outside (and probably on the right as Caleb is even more built to defend the pass than Tyler).
If I could give you any advice regarding pass rushing to make that easier I would. I suppose you could try to train blocking up to 25 or so. That makes a difference wrt beating blocks, as far as I can tell. But I know it's hard to train.
