OLB or MLB? That is a major difference for speed and strength requirements. MLB should have very high int (17plus). The rest skills are similar for both tack, pos, vis, agi and catching would be great for interceptions.

i wouldn't worry too much about catching to start off with, no one seems to have found much of a link between LBs with high catching and those making the interceptions, though might be worth training up later
though as previously said, as a starting point for LBs;
OLB
speed - 15+
str - 13+
and look for good starts in tackling, position, vision & agility
MLB
Int - 15+
Str - 15+
spd - 12+
and look for good starts in tackling, position, vision & agility

i treat OLB and MLB the same except MLB is supposed to be the smart one
they are all supposed to be smart so in the end it doesnt matter
