This was my first player ever, so I started out wrong. But I've capped speed, and working on agility. Currently intense training vision/confidence. Got all EQ in speed, except one in agility...

Comparing to my teammates, my attributes are similar - but I'm getting 0-3 tackles per game (30-40 plays) while they are getting 6-10 tackles per game.

What am I doing wrong?

It's because he plays ROLB. Don't worry about statistics. Keep with the plan.

Really? What position should he play then? And what should I improve if I want him to stay at ROLB?

(Considering to build him into a blitzing ROLB, so a link to a good build for that would be much appreciated.)

ROLB is not a position that puts up great numbers. Most teams run away from that side. You don't go into single coverage. The only statistic you have any sort of advantage on is sacks, because ROLBs have a tendency to blitz more often.

If you want a blitzing LB, you need lots of speed, high agility and strength, some vision, some shed blocks. A good pass rushing piece of AEQ like TV or blitz wouldn't hurt either.

Oh, alright... Thanks!

Any advice on when to stop intense training? To get shopping tokens, and get some AEQ, I mean... Or have I misunderstood how that works?
