Put all the remaining points into whichever attribute you plan to raise next. Spreading them out won't help you at all. Key thing is to hit the softcaps as fast as you can, so you want to concentrate on attribute 1 first (Kicking) until that is as high as you want it to be, and then move on to the next attribute, and so on.

That makes sense actually......not fully with it today...lol

That big on confidence? I've always thought vision would be the bigger attribute if it wasn't for confidence being the other major. Once archetypes came around, I thought that was even more apparent.

I have found its actually no longer the best idea to do that. Its actually often much better to split or put all into something you will cap 5th or so. That way your multi-trains yeild higher results, and they won't reach poor training levels (35+) by the time you are done with kicking or punting.
I would assume that because jumping helps increase your diving tackle radius, that it helps kickers make the last chance diving tackle on a runaway returner.

I'm in the minority, but yes I still think con is that big.

Catch said in one of his q and a , that jumping has almost as great an effect on distance as strength.

Hmm you might be misreading one of the QA points bort made. I assume you mean this one:
Bort October 1, 2011 Question: 2 players of equal weight/height/jumping/confidence/vision/speed have a jumping contest. Player A has 80 strength Player B has 50 strength. Who jumps the highest?
Answer: Assuming you're talking about jumping up, with no interference, to catch a ball? They both jump the same height. The guy with 80 strength is a better diving tackler though.
The point i think bort was making (i'm pretty sure the original question was longer, i'd have to go look though) is that strength does not play a role in how high a player can jump, but that the 80 strength tackler will succeed in his diving tackle role more because it's still a tackle, not that it increases the range of the dive.
Could be wrong but that would be how i interpret it.
However my answer was in response to Kloz asking why a kicker would take jumping. The answer most likely is that by doing so you increase the range of your kickers diving tackle range. Since a kicker is not likely going to be super speedy, any additional range you can give them to attempt a diving tackle the better. Assuming it does not take away from other attributes they might need.
If you are unsure whether my assertion is correct about strength and diving tackle range, should toss it into the Q&A to get clarification.

Nope wasn't that, had nothing to do with diving tackle, was about kicking distance.
