Looks decent enough.
DC is always a high bet and mostly they fail to achieve their purpose in game, but that's propably the best way to field them if you want.
You should give your Melta bombs to the Priest instead of Librarian, with Sanguine Sword there's no sense in using MB's, but the Priest will benefit of them.

They havent faild me yet- they draw fire away.
Also noted a lack of heavy anti armor. For mobility add a tac team with a las cannon. For heavy firepower add a pred destroyer (The added "Fast" profile lets it keep up) and drop the flamer unit.

BA Tacticals? Pass.
Your whole army is advancing and they will either stay back and fire the Lascannon once a turn (for 200 points), or follow, fire bolters couple of times and still be slower.

Besides, the Predator is far more mobile (and efficent) as a AT platform. It can move 6" and unleash fire or move 12" and fire Lascannon sponsons.
The Tacticals have to snap fire the Lascannon if they move.

If you want truly efficent AT, get Attack Bikes with MM's.

Any AT will kill those in a heart beat. Personally I run with a pred destroyer, baal pred, 5 man assault and death company, and a depleated tac team with a las cannon. Use the baal to take light armor, dessie for tanks. The tac team gets up high and snipes at tanks and hq, while assault moves up flank, death company pushing enemy into main force.

With Blood Angels, Librarian is never a bad bet.
Most of the codex powers are great (Shield, Fear of Darkness, Unleash Rage etc.) and you get access to Divination with awesome powers!

That is true you know your stuff what do you think would be better the 10 DC in the drop pod with bolters for distraction allowing me to move up for 200 points or a dreadnought in the drop pod? I need some advice I see a lot of mixed feelings about this please give me as much feedback as you can. dread vs death co in drop pod. I only have 205 points left if i get rid of the death company so that gives you a idea of what I can equip the furioso with ? orrrrr should I do sternguard in the drop pod instead of deathcompany so I can kill some tanks?

Suggest you dont limit them to bolters. Get some cqc kit in with the death co. Their true strength is going into cqc and beating the snot out of the target. Feel no Pain lets them eat overwatch and hits in combat, with Relentless allowing shots before the first round of cqc. Put an infurnus in there- I believe its Instant Death to most units.
As for the libby- Ill run a match with one.

Im still deciding whats better for forst blood though dropping a fragioso in there base turn 1 or a 5 man sterngaurd squad with combi meltas.. ive only tested the sterngaurd and they get first blood 80 percent of the time dropping them next to a tank and they live long enough for my assault marines to get in range. So idk if fragnought will be better or worse? Anyone?

Sternguard get my vote; almost every army has a vehicle that can become first blood.. and now with Knights and new AM showing up, they have the opportunity to perform quite well.

What about if im going against someone who has a ton of dev sqauds and terminators at their base? What option would be better against them Fragioso or 5 sterngaurd with combi meltas?

How many tanks? Fragnought tears up 5-man dev squads, and if he puts em together you might kill one and damage another.

Fragnought only works if you get close enough. As soon at the hostile puts a dev up high with a plasma cannon, its all over for any walker. Its a shooty game now. Adapt and overcome. (Or for the love of god put blood talons on that thing!) If you roll with that- I strongly suggest a drop pod.

Agreed. With Furioso, take a Drop Pod or go home.

Tried (and watched) the whole DP dread before, it gets a brutal intro to AT weapons after it lands. My brother over reacted to a similar entry by space wolves and unloaded demolisher cannons into it (he missed, as his dice roles are as bad as my risk roles) . Most of that time one is not that lucky.

That's why it's a fragnought and doesn't care if it gets into combat.
