Four players retiring, but only two starters. Very tough schedule, with some very exciting matchups. Looking forward to playing Ammodude again, hope to give him a better game than last time.

Having the AC East and NC West will certainly go some way towards diluting my record especially as I think my division is one of the most competitive remaining

Losing four players at the rollover as well luckily I've got replacements for three of them


I could have had 26 retiring, luckily only 5, 4 are my best players however!


26!!!!! Your teams old
The past 2 seasons is the first time since season 6 I've had anyone close to retirement age.

I prefer the term "Experienced".
I have 36 that are 29yo or over this season, so next seasons rollover will be a nightmare again!

Mines broken down like this

31 - 4 (3 retiring)
30 - 2 (1 retiring)
29 - 4
28 - 3
27 - 7
26 - 9
25 - 7
24 - 5
23 - 4
22 - 5
21 - 6
20 - 1

All but one of the 30 and 31 year olds start but of the 29 year olds only one is a starter

That's so not sustainable. I don't really see the point in even trying to maintain that, you should just start rebuilding now.

I lost 4 great starters to retirement at the season rollover (OT, 2 OLB's, SS). It won't be quite so bad this season, with 5 players retiring after this season (QB, OLB, DT, DE, OL) with only the DT and maybe the OL being huge losses. Looks like I may have a little competition in my division, but my 2 best players may keep me in good shape this season.

Good luck to everyone!

14 in the YA, potential 4 more seasons of draftees to cover the rest plus this one = 29 in total, no to re-build, yes the buying great young players from now on if they crop up and there not a bidding war.
Just hope the oldies don't all retire at 30 is all.

Your YA is a good source of players but you can't rely on the draft unless you get lucky

But you do need to look to get younger. The good thing is many sides will only be breaking even now so they will be mindful of blowing their stockpiles of cash on a prospect

All right, I hope that season 14 will be more successful for me than season 13.. The schedule is probably the easiest I have ever had in 1.1 Admirals.. thanks to toptop league and the fact, that several well established managers left the game...

It would be nice to take back the divisional title from Monkey

3 players retiring.. all of them will be losses for my team, especially 4* OL will be missed greatly....

Good luck to all of you
