    I imagine Escobar just downloaded them from my EA Locker and looked at his team that way.

    Yeah I think I'd rather just keep who I have. A draft would be too much.

    Also if you are doing position changes, can you move my MLB Tony Cummings to ROLB and move ROLB Nick Alexander to MLB, MLB Jason Baker to LOLB and move LOLB William Bell to MLB.
    Done. Your LBs now look like this:
    Name Pos OVR
    John Wilson LOLB 68
    Jason Baker LOLB 68
    Nick Alexander MLB 76
    William Bell MLB 66
    Ian Sutton MLB 49
    Tony Cummings ROLB 75
    Matt Washington ROLB 71

    I made the following moves for my team (if you make requests, please layout your requests similar to this):

    Name
    Old
    Pos
    Old
    OVR
    New
    Pos
    New
    OVR
    Randall Williams FB 67 HB 72
    Demetrius Stewart LOLB 78 MLB 78
    Rashad Cook MLB 53 LOLB 53
    Max Callahan C 76 RT 74
    Josh Miller LT 49 C 51
    Mark Sharpe RG 65 LG 65
    Sean Shelton RT 55 LT 55



    Also, for the record, in case we decide not to do position changes, I am keeping a backup roster set prior to any changes.

    You'll need to move a FS & SS to CB... otherwise you'll end up with only 2 CBs.

    As far as the draft, I'm good with whatever as well, just a crazy thought that I came up with.

    I thought the idea was to simulate a DP, something where no football for like 2 years. The 5-6 seasons sim was to get the rosters crappy and our program rankings low, basically where it would be after not having football. With semi decent rosters there is a good chance most of us make a bowl game 1st year where we shouldn't be.

    By semi decent, I'm saying higher than 40 OVR players. These teams though are shitty compared to EVERY other team. The lowest teams (USA, NMSU, Idaho) are in the neighborhood of 75 OVR... Our highest teams are 61 OVR.

    That said, I'm not having much luck lowering contract requirements. I was able to get Florida down from 11 wins to 9 but so far I can't get it lower. I'm still tinkering though.

    G, I'll try to look for position changes tonight. Ironically, pre-dynasty position changes is one of those things I've been meaning to ask to do every year. Awesome to see someone else suggest it.

    I won't have access to my PS3 until maybe late tomorrow night. Is there any way that you could see how many FB's and TE's that I have on my roster.

    I run a lot of 12, 13, 21, and 22 so I might need to make some adjustments if necessary.

    Two TEs: 61 OVR and 59 OVR. Fresh (RS) and Soph (RS) respectively.
    Two FBs: 61 OVR and 45 OVR. Senior and Fresh respectively.

    G, I noticed my TE is showing as currently being redshirted when I go through Edit Roster. Not sure how that's going to translate to a new dynasty.

    Remember, while we've been sucking for 5 years, other teams have been getting better. Kansas has a 90-something punter, and tons of 80 players. Whereas I have one.

    Thanks man, I really appreciate it!

    That's no bueno on the TE's however. I usually keep 4-5 at a time on my roster considering how much I use them in different packages. I may need to see if there is a DE that I can move over.

    I'll tell you right now, Razor, I think most of us are going to be completely changing our playstyles, at least for year one.

    There is no way in the world I can use my planned playbook with this team.

    That's what I'm assuming as well. There's no way I'll be able to run some of the personel groupings I had with Michigan State until I do some recruiting.

    The joys of a death penalty dynasty however. You have to adapt to advance.

    I don't know what you've tried so far, but the biggest outlier I saw was Program Tradition. It looks like all of our teams are still in the A- to A+ range. All of the teams with 5 or 6 win contract requirements are D- to D+ teams. I think that might be a good place to tinker.

    I did see that my Program Tradition dropped from A+ to C- after one simulated season. Maybe look at what our Program Traditions were at the end of Season 5, set them to be at that level, and then see what the requirements are. That's only editable in the Editor, right? Not something you can do within the rosters in the normal game?
