Is it hard to have an LB's effective level higher than their actual level? Most LB's I see are 2 or so effective levels lower than their players level, at least when they're around level 40 or so.

It looks like maybe you circle capped your way through Speed Agi Vis instead of sticking with one at a time. Or maybe you cap build for a while before starting to spread points out. Or you started off badly and are now trying to salvage the build. Having two stats in the 40s is never a good sign.

Either way, your build is not very efficient and your majors are not high enough, so you eff lev is low.

I wouldn't worry about effective levels on LB's early on,means nothing really.

They wouldve been much closer in EL/AL around LV40...You tend to not see a big difference in EL in this position until the back end of their careers.

first started going positive around 30 iirc, aim for 4+ in the 40s. You can get there.

Yup, my guys started going + around level 33 I think. All 3 are OLB's; 43/47, 43/48 & 54/59

This is really just an old problem. Most LBs effective level was low because of how many major skills there were and that speed was a minor skill. Most people capped speed first, which hampered the effective level since they were only getting like .2 points per level. Now that all major and minor skills are the same at every position, the effective level will be much higher.

Do effective levels include EQ's?? It seems like aeq's, sa are not included. My lb is at his level for eff. but has a points in sa's and a bump to tkl and vision with aeq's. There is a lb on my team whose build looks a bit behind mine but his eff lvl is higher, he has much less sa's and aeq's- any thoughts??

it's raw stats, no EQ

Yeah you're right, this was one of my first players, and I circle capped rather than focusing on individual skills
