I have a lvl 23 SS, wondering where to go with this build. Should I focus on getting speed to 77 asap?

You can easily go vision before agility as it seems to make up for it a bit with being able to path better.

Yes, I would take speed to 77 for a strong safety.
Depending on whether you're going for a balanced coverage-zone guy or a zone guy or a hard hitter, I'd go either vision or tackling after speed.
Doing agility second leads to crap value late build.

77 is overkill.

Why? I think you're just saying that without any credible reason.

Just think SS has a bit more to worry about than building like a CB. Obviously you need more than 77 speed after natural gains but spending that much on speed is gonna leave you short elsewhere. Not much to go off just my thinking.

Any good GLB safety is going to be WAY faster than a GLB CB.

So a Strong Safety has to be faster, stronger, better tackler, moar vision and more SAs. Thanks.

same vision, better tackler and stronger
less jumping, less SAs, WAY less agility.

This. Most good CBs these days have 95+ agility, while as a SS you only need 70-80. They also often have many more SAs.
