I think if I redid my mock the breakdown wouldn't change much, but that #1 overall CB would definitely go anywhere from 4-10 spots higher.

I'm banking on Striker going for a veteran QB instead of grabbing one through the draft.

Umm. I had like 3-4 DTs going in the draft and you have me selecting none I was joking about Live taking a C, he really has to take a QB.

[daw840]

When do player progressions happen. As soon as the superbowl happens? With such a young team I really need to know what happens with my guys to know who to draft/bid on

 

[levious]

progression is shown as soon as we advance past the super bowl.

DCX

I found the errors.

 

[TheCrow]

I like my pick in Blumax's mock draft, except he is missing my second pick. No way I go C when my current starter has A potential.

 

[ph33nix]

just a warning, it'll say progression was made right after the super bowl, but when the new season starts, a new progression shows up (and it's usually lower)

 

[levious]

this a leaguemanager issue or in game?

If leaguemanager is going to get the OVR wrong, won't that screw us with contract values/free agency?

Bears in talks with multiple suitors to MOVE UP if their guy is available.

League Manager is being Poo so I can't see the Giants roster to decide on their pick.

If I had to guess I'd have you taking one of the B Pot 77 OVR DEs OR the 76 OVR B Pot MLB.

If you're shopping a pick I'd trade, either your first or your 2nd. Just have a gander and see if anyone pops out at you.

@DerekJAdams:Testers are finishing up QA on the draft console b4 it goes live. Here is a screenshot of the new dynamic scouting

 

[levious]

oh I wasn't looking myself

 

[Wellington]

I'm going BPA outside of the dline, pretty set there.

I can use someone in literally every position. Dalton's not safe either.

 

[bluemax]

I'm willing to trade the #2 pick for Aaron Godgers.

Schaub for Dalton to backup Leinart.

 

[Mrbob]

The Chicago Bears organization told me they do not comment on rumors. Their number one goal is to improve the team each year through the best means necessary.

 

[bluemax]

oh damn!

DCX

Mind you I haven't actually talked to eznark about this, but I figured I'd throw it out there.

 

[Wellington]

Straight up?

Done deal.

Any idea how much money we'll need to resign a full 7 round rookie draft?

I think DCX said 12 mil? Not sure.

 

[DCX]

I think DCX said 12 mil? Not sure.

Between 6-10 million, depends on where you pick. I would assume every pick round 5 and on will get cut lol

Is the AFC Championship Game being played tonight? The Super Bowl too hopefully. I'm excited to get to the offseason.

I hope. :/

 

[Mrbob]

Indeed. Let us move to the off season. Playoffs taking as long as the regular season.

 

[Smokey]

You will wait.

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

yeah that freeman play was raw garbage but dm should've saved some of the BS catches that his guys were making too. i could live with the freeballin' run from time to time but some of those catches in traffic were just fucking bogus.

the biggest mistake i made was using the niners playbook, which i hadn't been using most of the season but used it against CB and used it here. it's fine to a degree but it just doesn't have the nice route variation that the texans playbook has

 

[Mrbob]

Texans playbook should be banned.

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

Texans playbook should be banned.

why?

 

[Mrbob]

It is the most used playbook because of the formations and routes make it nearly impossible to play D at times.

Doesn't need to be banned, but a lot of people use it. Would be nice to see some originality on offense.

what formations/routes are unguardable?

:rolleyes

Best playbook in the game. If you ain't using it, you're gimping yourself.

 

[DCX]

Lol so you suggest me the Cowboys book Haha Like always trolling.

DCX

 

[Mrbob]

Unguardable is probably not the right word, but the way multiple routes flank out it seems like there is counter with about almost any defense. I haven't really seen an offensive playbook nearly as diverse in its route running, but I could be wrong! I finished 6-10 after all.

 

[Rorschach]

Best playbook in the game. If you ain't using it, you're gimping yourself.

Wish I used it!

 

[CB3]

No doubt the options and diversity on that playbook are staggering compared to the others. You really gotta work on it though to be especially effective. when i used it for a few weeks, i would get stuck on 3rd downs or important situations because there were almost too many options.

The Eagles playbook is extremely simple but i know it really well because its mostly been the same for a few years. In my case, simpler was better.

[Ramirez]

We're playing at 10:30 EST. If he wins, he won't play back to back, and I don't think I will either should I win.

I don't blame you. I'm drained after a regular season game, playoffs are much worse!
