To be completely honest I would retire and start over. Here are my reasons:

- he is light for a C
- when you rolled the player you had 6 wasted SPs in stats that should all be at 8
- you didn't bring str/blo to high enough levels off the bat (should have been AT LEAST 73/73 before any other SPs spent; I think 77/73 are better numbers to shoot for)
- you spent on SAs too soon, should be late in career, after level 50
- I don't like the Cut Block AEQ, that could be changed if you want to keep him, look for LG, it saves you the most SPs and is much more important in the current sim (confidence/stamina boost is huge right now)
- you should not have picked an archetype, C ALGs in str/block were just to good under the old system to give them up
- even when you pick an arch, in the new system, Spot Blitz isn't the best choice IMO
- poor VA choices (Natural Leader, Great Blocker, Workout Warrior are the best for C's IMO, NEVER pulling Lineman, C's don't pull in the current playbook)
- best C SAs IMO, LG, Get Low, Run Block, in that order, BUT NOT UNTIL ATTRIBUTES ARE WHERE YOU WANT THEM

Here is my 46 C for referance to all above points, only thing I really want to change on him is get rid of Stonewall next season and find some better LG AEQ, current +1 con and bare.
