Did we all agree strength is #1 priority? Then blocking?

And from there what's next?

Agility, then vision, then speed, then confidence, then stamina.

you'll want more agility/confidence on the left and more speed/vision on the right. In my opinion =)

yah, we're batting this around on one of my teams forums, one of the guys is putting big time importance on vision, he thinks it's key to avoid false start penalties (that he also feels have been dialled up slightly). I'm not sold, but it's a good theory. Not sure if it's mroe important than agility though, esp on the left

False start penalties are weird. 60 vision, 50 confidence, in-game morale>80, still wasn't enough for me to avoid them at the C position last season

Pretty funny considering C should be the least susceptible player to false starts.

IRL, I remember Dave Rimington was called off sides on multiple occasions during his college days. He was just that quick that it looked like it gave the illusion he was off sides. Begged the question, "how?" lol

Vision is more important on the right side because you're more likely to pick up a blitzing LB/Safety, and because you have to get out in space on pulls to make blocks. That's also why speed is more important on the right side.

this is precisely why I said spd/vis on the right.
agi/conf on the left because usually DTs will outmatch your LG by a LOT in agility, and just beat you in general. good DTs will always beat good LGs of the same level, which is why I added conf.

120 str, 80 agl, 80 block for a LG is a good plan. You could probably lower str, but since 2 seasons ago, str is back in.

I was called for a offside playing C for my local club. but then again, the judges in Denmark, are not the best in the world. but i had a hard time trying to convince him that as i was snapping the ball it was some feat for me to pass the line of scrimmage before it was snapped!

False stars as C is possible, but the most stupid thing you can do.

false starts on centers are basically moving the ball before the snap. Sometimes the center will actually snap the ball and no one else on the team moves. I usually see it called a couple times a year.

So do you think having 72 natural agility would be a waste for a RG (level 40) and he should be moved to left? I think the agility would help him get to the second level quicker. That and capping speed would seem fine to me. The RG doesn't seem to have to go much more than a few steps to get to the LB/S for run blocking.
