There's a no subs rule this year! FMT's decree!

there will be NO fill-ins this year UNLESS someone is the owner of the team full time and is out of town for a weekend or something. but continued fill-ins for the same team won't happen. i know the dolphins are having a fill-in for the first few weeks, but it is going to be ONE GUY (woodchuck) filling in for every game, so there are no surprises

Unrelated but, Bob, I am dropping Grossman to make room for rookies, he's all yours.

Doesn't the game cut your lowest 7 guys pre-draft even if you have room? I need to go pick up some fillers with all the retirements I had.

LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world he’d rather have. The problem is, Dwyane’s not a woman.

Yes and that's why you need to be aware of your roster before the draft so you can pick your players up again.

Of course you can always leave any of the 7 for other teams to pick up though.

David Carr is my lowest rated player :lol and will be cut, but I'm picking him up again. Sorry FMT!

I know. I thought the rule was both guys had to be over 75.
Not really complaining. If I would have given more, I wouldn't be in this mess I guess. And I'd take a 60 rated player if he had something unique to offer. None of these...things interest me, though.

So, do we know who the top 5 picks will be at this point or is it pretty much unknown?

I can assume Tristan the QB, the top 2 RB's (Okoye and Taylor) and Perry the WR. Figure one of those higher rated LB's, or that one safety.

Yeah, I know. I could have thrown Slaton, Welker, or Watson to balloon up my numbers, but I've never put in a sub 75 player either (Hello Texans, Seahawks, Jets, Bengals and Vikings!!)

Dusty Dvoracek, DT.

LJ - What happened with Bills DT John McCargo? I remember the Giants were very interested in drafting him but the Bills took him in round 1. He was from that NC State Line that had Manny Lawson and Mario Williams on it. He hasn't gotten much play time IRL.

He's a lazy fuck is what happened. No effort, he's shown flashes, but the dude received his pay day and mailed it in. Still on the roster though, no idea why.

Will the CPU just take the best player available overall or does it have a magical way of knowing what the team needs?

I've seen the CPU take a RT when the RT on the roster was 90+.

The CPU is unpredictable - it uses a mix of Al Davis and Matt Millen logic

Next year I'll drop Palmer and Ochocinco.

I gave my FA cuts in before my trades went down. I had the least amount of 80 rated players on my team besides the Rams, no way was I giving up a 75 rated player at the time after I had also thrown in the 92 rated LT.

It's not team needs and it's not highest rated player available. Bears took Jack English to sit behind Cutler, Falcons took Okoye to sit behind Turner, etc.

If you just gave 1 guy at 75 instead of 60, you'd have picked 5th or 6th, instead of 7th from the bottom!

Nothing wrong with the bottom. I was more worried about getting my trades done. I was pretty confident with them going through.

Would have backfired big time thought if they hadn't, risk I took.

I'd be OK with that. I've set a draft board that should cover me through my 2nd pick (maybe even 3rd), so hopefully I don't get screwed by the AI.

It was reported that the Bills are in talks with the Rams regarding a package that would send the 10th and 11th picks to St Louis in exchange for the second and pieces. The reasoning? Tristan Riley .

Only RB I'd take with my pick would be Taylor. There's not alot of improvement in what I have with Joker. Though the name is kick ass.

I like the outcome here, but I've never seen a QB go in the top 5. What about this:


  • 1. Chiefs - Eduardo Pita, G
  • 2. Rams - Tristan Riley, QB
  • 3. Falcons - Ben Gray, MLB
  • 4. Panthers - Aziz Perry, WR
  • 5. Lion$ - Abdul Ross ROLB
  • 6. Jets - Angalo LeGree RT
  • 7. CPU Titans - Jelani Okoye, HB
  • 8. Redskins - Jay Sonnier, MLB
  • 9. Browns - LeMarcus Taylor, HB
  • 10. Bills - Jermichael Hardaway, QB
  • 11. Bills - Allen Walters, SS
  • 12. Patriots - Joker Jones, HB
  • 13. Redskins - Angalo LeGree
  • 14. Seahawks - Brandon Weatherspoon, CB
  • 15. Jaguars - Andre Hudson, FS

[edit]
I can guarantee you I'd take Angelo LeGree before taking a cornerback. I'd also take Andre Hudson before taking a cornerback
. I got one right!
