I have seen a decent amount of advice in these forums saying what a good idea it is for Agility to be close, like within 10 points, of speed but I do not believe it was in regards to ROLB's whose main focus is the Blitz. My current build at level 40 (with equipment) is:

Strength: 49.56
Speed: 96.96
Agility: 73.56
Jumping: 30.96
Stamina: 41.56
Vision: 60.56
Confidence: 39.56
Tackling: 48.56

Right now all of my equipment is in Speed and I am wondering if I would be better served to replace some pieces of my Speed Equipment with Agility Equipment, and if so, how much? Should I simply get my Agility within 10 points (i.e. - 90 Speed / 80 Agility) or should I really go 85 Speed / 85 Agility? Any opinions on this would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: Any critiques on the build itself would be most welcome also. I have no points in any SA's other than what my Custom piece gives me in the Pass Rusher tree, and 3 in Supervision from an AEQ piece.

I'm not positive, but I believe the 10 point spread advice has to do with base numbers no equip.

For ROLB, I'd start with about a 15 point difference and tweak based on the replays. You can't judge strictly by the numbers.

that would be incorrect. The base numbers have nothing to do with performance. The "spread" advice is strictly performance related.

If you are talking straight equipment placement, then CE and 3 Pieces for Speed, with 1 piece for Agility, and tweak from here.

Honestly, I think you're fine where you're at. Your DC just needs to put you in positions to RUN around or between the lineman instead of through the lineman.

I would just try to find a first step item and pump that to craziness.
