For a Center,

Is vision, speed , agility or Confidence

Which do you think is the ranking of importance?

Should any be taken to the soft cap or beyond?

agility, vision, confidence/speed
mid60s, mid50s, mid40s should all suffice. Depending on your team direction, style of building, etc., specific goals are both more attainable and more reasonable.

My lv24 has 62.5 agi which should get it where I want down the road, and I'll cap vis at 49.05 at level 27. I'll continue to train it into the 50s with confidence, which I'll eventually cap and then get speed up with training.

are you sure about the vision? I've kind of been using that as a guide for a while now, but I can't really find any evidence that vision is actually helping my oline. Especially with the new changes to oline blocking scheme this season. I capped my vision reasonably early, and kind of wish I hadn't spent the points on it and just left it at about 30 from training.

Thanks. Yeah Vision is the one I can't figure out. More times than not a powerful center is gonna be tied up with the NT/DT and not very often knocking him over and moving to the next level of the defense, like a gaurd. I figure agility will help against agile DT's.

But Speed and vision seem to be the 2 attributes I can't quite figure out.

I can't figure out vision and confidence, really. Fact of the matter is, C doesn't need to do much. Nobody has even figured out if line gen works. My team has it at 11, and we IMPLODED a few seasons ago giving up 11 sacks and all at <50 energy after a game, with 40+sta and ~35 conf across the line. Thats why it depends on the team. I think vision helps determine what to do, if there is a blitz, changing blockers, letting somebody handle the opposition alone, staying in front of the defender, etc.
