Grrr. Well, not that bad.

No more stamina
No more catching.
No more superior vision(until you get your base vision up to 68.)

There's not really any good combos for you to train. I'd do this(in order)

1) Train intense for strength and tackling. Get them to 48(then set tacklig style to balanced)
2) Get speed to the next cap.
3) Get vision to 68
4) The dump some points/upgrades in Superior Vision.

You can go ahead and get ballhawk.

Should I go for Ball Hawk now or wait until Zone Specialist is full?

Like any VA. It doesn't really work well unless you get lots of points in it. I'd wait

I'd check with your D coordinator and see how much zone yall are running with your guy. If you watch alot of the replays when your guy is in and he's usually in zone then I'd fill it up first because ZS is a really nice VA. It boosts all of your main abilities.

I'd wait util ZS is filled and work on Ballhawk.

One thing you don't want, is a bunch of VAs. Most of them doesn't work as good as others. Alot of agents get their players like 5 or 6 VAs with a few points on each of them. That strategy is garbage. That does nothing. Work on one, fill it up, then get another one. The worse case scenario would be to get switched from a zone FS to a man FS. Then all you have to do is reset your VA points and invest in something else.

My plan for VAs

1. Zone Specialist to 10
2. Ball Hawk to whatever
3. When I can, Zone Specialist to 15
4. Ball Hawk to 15

After that should I go Football Genius or Long Reach? Or is there a certain level of vision I should wait for to worry about Football Vision?

Jack Hammer or Long Reach. Depending on where your strength is.

Strength is only 19 right now. I'm more concerned about getting agility, vision and confidence up at the moment

I was was thinking of bringing confidence up to 25, is that a good plan? I've been training it while getting shopping tokens to find myself a super vision piece

Dont spend points on attributes until they are trained to at least 30.

I'd drop the player or try to make a high jumping/catching build to see how that would work out at FS.
You are behind the curve on all major attributes and while you could still make it a semi good build it will never be quite what you hoped for. Don't worry though, that happens for most people on their first player or later :>

Yeah. I put too many points into catching and SAs early in his career. Once realized how hard INTs were to get I changed gears a bit. I'll definitely put priority on getting speed/agi/vision to 68/68/68

I've got another FS in the works that i'm gonna build properly
