I am gonna be backing up both LOT and ROT vs Pro league DEs, so I am just wondering how much speed I should have to go along with my agility. Soft cap it? Get it to mid 30s, 40ish? MORE than 48?
http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=703067
Strength: 73.78
Blocking: 94.18
Speed: 25
Agility: 74.21
Stamina: 44.29
Vision: 50.84
Confidence: 35.78

Thanks.

I don't know the answer to your question. I do have an OT of my own which I plan to train speed to or past 29 with 90% to 99% trained before putting any SP into speed. This is because speed has no level gains. If I can get my speed to 49 with 90% to 99% trained one last training should make 50 and I hope I can forget about speed forever.

24 + 25 SP = 49
29 + 20 SP = 49
34 + 15 SP = 49

I think first softcap is reasonable. I've never seen much of a reason to get it past that, but then, I only have 1 OT so I'm not sure what other leagues are like.

bare minimum 40, 45 may be enough. maybe save one of your boosts after taking it to 45 and doing the train to 90% trick.

like I said before, make sure your OT will not back up too fast and CREATE a hole for the ROLB to run through. i would wait on the speed until you notice a problem.

VISION is the key. It makes your OT faster off the snap because he is more aware. If your OT gets beat off the snap, he will freeze and the DE will run around him. Most great DEs have really high vision and agility, so you need to match that.

I'd say you are going to want to get into the 50's.

Since you are going to be in SA Pro, you know that you are going to have to block this joker, right?

Watch some of his pbp's and then try and figure out how much speed you're gonna need.
