Blocking/Agility to the 4:1 cap imo.

Blk/Agi to 4:1 costs you... 33SP yeah.. I'd do that, train up speed.

You'll still need to cap vision and speed IMO eventually. Assuming you don't mind waiting next season to train speed (can normal and look for a good equip if you want, even. Though some never leave intense, and I don't blame them), next season + boosts should net the SP needed to take care of that.

Great build, how is the performance without SAs?

That is really interesting, I was so set on working on Vision next, but I guess that can be postponed a bit. Actually just like in my C thread, I forgot to factor in boosts at the beginning of next season, so he'll be 32 with 47 SP. 47 - 33 = 16, that looks like that is just enough to cap vision, lol.

Haven't paid much attention to my performance but he looks like he does alright. I'm actually set to play on Run Block just because our team runs a ton. Recently I was up against a level 30 DE (whom I know for a fact is not slow building (and actually it turns out that he was a DT playing RDE, lol)) and playing basically as a level 23 due to the SP I am still hording, but I was able to hold onto him long enough and prevent him from getting sacks/hurries on the outside. Might just be another example of a lower level O-line guy shutting down a higher level D-line guy in the post-sack-nerf era though. Can't really extrapolate my performance to higher levels, but I still think it'd be good to invest in Protector and Pass Block on top of what I've got, at least 5 in each of them.

Yeah, you could always boost protector while you train speed next season. You cannot succeed with under 40 speed though, really.

Good plan on the vision cap. I think we only recommended to go 4:1 because if ever, now is the time, and you've got the SP for it.

just wondering, why is speed needed for an OT?
they don't run anywhere.
i know agility is huge, i just don't understand this speed need.

When you go against a 90 agility 75 speed or 90 speed 75 agility DE with 5 in first step, 7 in shed block, and 8 in tunnel vision you will.

wouldn't super high agility be what you need though? you don't hit high speed in 2 steps.

Speed makes a difference as well.

can somebody please explain why though?
i'd appreciate it.

it also is neither a major nor minor position attribute for OTs..if it was so important, wouldn't it be?

thanks
