In order to properly build a MLB I feel like you need to first build as if an OLB with high spd/agi and then vision before strength because easier training combos.

He had a problem with missed tackles early last season but when I started training strength he was moved to MLB and started to miss less tackles, I believe that he will be a machine at breaking through the line and then taking down the back in the long run.

Let me know your opinions and suggestions, thanks

should do vision/agility first then move onto speed imo.

i've thought about that before but I wouldn't know what to train then. it would be nice if there was a speed/vision..

I think MLB are the easiest builds. The training combos work perfectly. OLB's on the other hand drive me crazy because of the training combos. I agree with misled on the part about starting w/ vision/agility though.

you could use the speed/tackling and then use strength/jumping training to compensate. Causes you to cap tackling before strength but it would work the same in the long run.

Personally, I never bought into high vision for a LB. I survived Pro at OLB with less than 60 vision and put up 185 tackles in 2 seasons in Pro. Now he's in World League.... still has less than 60 vision.

When you play the top teams, MLB's need boatloads of strength. Average opponents it's not a big deal. But as soon as you hit AAA and above, you'll find your LB is on his back all the time. You should 5th cap speed ASAP.

I would trade some of that speed and probably agility for strength and tackling. Also with high vision you just don't need that much speed.

assuming you would get SPD/AGI/STR to 68 and TAC/VIS to 61: where would you put your equipment?

Hey you say he is a MLB, how come your team does not have any LB at the MLB spot on the Depth chart????
