this is my lvl 30 LB. After joining a new team, I've been switched to MLB.

http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=369140

All my eq is in speed. My question is, where do I go from here? Should I cap vision to 61? Or should I put points into Defense General? What about strength and tackling, should I cap those two stats, and if so, how high? I'm currently training strength and tackling btw.

DLight03 I'm a big fan of Justin Durant, but never got around to making a LB.

I'd say because you are so close softcap str and tackling, then agi to 75 (including equip)

MLBs tend to have more strength I would say get that up as well was agility,, tackling you dont have to worry about. good strength equals good tackling

keep all your EQ in SPD and start working AGI to 68. i'd work on SPD after that.

i don't think a MLB need to be that much different from an OLB.

thanks for the advice, but I think I should put some more points into Defense General since I'm the (unexpected) starting MLB on my team now. What's a good number of points to put into Defense General?

you can put points into d gen after capping. Definitely cap tackling with your first boost, then use the leftovers and next boost (if needed) to cap strength. I would hold on to some of those SPs and see how things go in the first couple games and check your league for power backs. If there are more than 1 or 2 good power backs, use the points in tackling. If not put 2 points in DGen, 2 in tackling, 2 in vision, and then work vision up to the cap. I'd reset your VA to quick and maybe move one piece of eq to agility as well. But that's just me. I am not all about getting a bunch of attributes up to the third cap one at a time, I'd rather contribute. But as for D Gen, as long as the points are there by the time the playoffs come around, your team should have nothing to complain about.

wow, thats all really good advice. thanks. so i guess D Gen should be around 3 by the time the playoffs arrive.

There's no sense in investing in D-gen if your time at MLB was unexpected and you don't intend to play the position in the future. Be sure you want to stick with the team, or switch to the MLB permanently in your LBs career before you delve too far into it.

I suggest finish capping strength and tackling.
Intense train stamina and confidence all season.
Get vision to 61.
