That TE out of Nevada is right up your alley!
Edit:

This site gives you first initial and last name for the players.
Damn. No way I get that Nevada TE. I need to make another trade. I'd take a flyer on the 68 rated A pot perhaps a little early if I knew we were playing multiple more seasons.
think he's asking for ~17 million a year now, my only hope is that he regresses down to low 90's OVR.
I hear the next draft after this one is pretty shitty.

Wtf! 17 mil for a te??
My strategy next season will be 5 wide, all TE's
You'd be living the dream! Wide receivers are for suckers!
sorry, just double checked, 13 million.
And I can't believe Somnia cut Bruce Carter but kept Keith Brooking and Bradie James, I was sabotaged from within!
Did they get secret access to a new Steelers helmet design for the 13 season?
Rashard wants 7.5 mil for next season, a 5 mil jump! I'm subtracting 1 mil per crucial playoff fumble. If I go below 0, he's gone!
Or you could have a stud WR, fast secondary WR, and the ultimate TE core (Tony G, Owen Daniels, J Dreesen)
with a mediocre QB lol
I look forward to increasing the cheese factor of the Houston Texans in the offseason
REDSKINS-1, you are cleared for takeoff.
So looking at my stats, I increased my passer rating by 14 points and dropped my INT total by 8. TD's were exactly the same at 29...
In other news Carlos Dunlap was 1 Sack shy of doubling the amount of my entire teams sack total. EA really needs to work on pressure in 3-4 defense in the game. Does anyone here run 3-4 and get consistent pressure? The sacks I do have usually come from someone rolling out or trying to scramble, lol.
Ravens have 32, jokes on me.

I'll trade you Bruce Carter, he didn't see much action for me this year. Make an offer!
Also, the player ratings not aligning (I've talked about this before) in-game, with League Manager (out of game) is going to result in teams having to overpay for guys that are rated lower in game than they are on the site.
That's retarded and we're not going to be dealing with it. I haven't figured out how to fix it yet, but it will probably involve something like each team will be able to point out 3 players who are misrated (easily cross referenced by Commish and Associates) and those salaries will be lowered down to where they should be for the rating.
E.g., Mario Williams on LM is rated 98, in game he's rated 89, DCX shouldn't be paying 98-rated money (18M) when he's getting 89 value.
Also, if someone felt like doing the heavy-lifting for finding the top 5 paid players at each position, e.g., Tackle (not LT), I'm totally down with giving each team 1 franchise tag.
And, I see the per team salary caps are going up by 10M this year.
Carry on.
BREAKING: After tempers calmed, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and CB Aqib Talib agreed in principle to a 3 year, $26M extension.
The online drafts always occur in the same order, it is only random in offline franchise.
Also I did some quick and dirty SoS calculations and updated the draft order
Code:
Jaguars 1 15 0
Patriots 4 12 0 (135)* (2 or 3)
Lions 4 12 0 (135)* (2 or 3)
Rams 4 12 0 (137)* (3 or 4)
Ravens 4 12 0 (137)* (3 or 4)
Vikings 4 12 0 (145)
Packers 5 11 0 (131)
Dolphins 5 11 0 (136)
Cowboys 6 10 0 (123)
Cardinals 6 10 0 (127)
Redskins 6 10 0 (130)
Jets 6 10 0 (138)
Seahawks 7 9 0 (124)* (13 or 14)
Panthers 7 9 0 (124)* (13 or 14)
Falcons 7 9 0 (127)
Browns 8 8 0 (122)* (16 or 17)
Chargers 8 8 0 (122)* (16 or 17)
Titans 8 8 0 (125)
Chiefs 8 8 0 (133)
Bengals 9 7 0The number in parenthesis are the combined win totals of that teams opponents. Despite playing in tough divisions the Browns and Chargers had two of the softest schedules in the league! I think this is because they both played the Jags.
Yeah Deion Butler is 69 in game and 75 on league manager. He wants almost $3million in league manager. Although he shows up as 75 on the EA website as well. I swear I have one WR whose rating is off between LM and in game.

Yes. 100% yes. I have the same issue with Kendrick Lewis being 78 on LM and 76 in game. Some others are way off also.
The data is suppose to pull right from the servers so idk why or how this is happening.
I like your ideas a lot, and the cap raise would help lower market cash strapped teams succeed in free agency and people pay thier draft class in the very least.
As blue mentioned before is around 12 million.
DCX
LM does pull from the servers, the problem is the servers are wrong too. If you look at player management, it will show the same ratings as LM does.
I just wish there were an easier way to see a player's "real" rating. The only way to do it, as far as I know, is through the depth chart (or in an actually game) which means you need to already have a guy signed to your roster in order to know what his rating is. There's a 63 rated TE I wanted to sign in the offseason, but he was asking for $3.5M per year since he's somehow rated 75 on LM. The difference can be incredibly significant.
I am not going to go "Inside the Numbers" here because whatever Sanjo has, I don't want, but let's look at his passing stats this season with Tom Brady, the highest rated QB in the game.
311/582 53.4% 4311 yards 22 TDs 74 INTs
53% of pass attempts resulted in a completion
12% of pass attempts resulted in an interception
3.7% of pass attempts resulted in a TD pass
7% of completions resulted in a TD
311/582 53.4% 4311 yards 22 TDs 74 INTs
53% of pass attempts resulted in a completion
12% of pass attempts resulted in an interception
3.7% of pass attempts resulted in a TD pass
7% of completions resulted in a TD
On the eve of their playoff battle with the vaunted Denver Broncos reports emerged from Indianapolis that superstar quarterback and face of the franchise Peyton Manning may be on the move after this season. Quarterback Curtis Painter is expected to start against the Broncos.
Additionally the Colts have reached an agreement in principle with an undisclosed team for MLB Bruce "Mr." Carter.

Well there goes any chance of me winning.
Truly a season for the ages.

My life was significantly busier this season than last, I wasn't focused as much and I had two of the most bizarre losses in the franchise. (Dog causing me to miss FG, having the game locked up against crow and basically giving it to him with defensive TDs). I'm ok with where I'm at and welcome the offseason. Haven't decided if I'll come back. If I don't come back Splat is actually a Bengals fan.
Jermaine Gresham is available.
Carlos Dunlap is the MVP and DPOY. Please respect him. He single handedly had as many or more sacks than 13 other teams.
I'm willing to trade him for a first rounder if anyone's interested. He's 93 OVR.
Seemed like he was trying in our game, but with the sheer number of passes he throws, it gets easier to figure out what he's doing and where he's likely to go. So I just had to put players in the right position to make plays.
That was the one game were my DB's weren't stonehanded.

Inside the Numbers: Peyton Manning's swan songs in Indy
Season over season it looks grim. After a record setting campaign where he threw for a then-NFL record 5113 yards, Manning threw for 3140 yards this season, a huge drop off (almost 40%).
Let's look at the differences:
2011 352/479 73.5% 5133 yards 43 TDs and 18 INTs
2012
225/311 72.3% 3140 yards 24 TDs 15 INTs (15 games)
Overall just "down" year over year. But why? Rushing, time of possession and defensive numbers tell the real tale here.

Your ability to look into the future is as bright as the rest of the real life Texans season.
I'm just telling you before DCX gets a chance
If your letting what DCX says bother you, you have a whole different set of problems
NFC East plays AFC North next season, makes sense...
