What sort of high/low limits do you place on intelligence for each position ??

I definitely like a QB to have 40+ Intell , and I like a MLB to have similar too ....... but what about the other positions ?

I'm still wondering how highly Intell is regarded by the Engine (Pete plays a good game of Poker with questions such as this )

It poses me problems .... I sometimes get players in the YA with high strength/low intell or high speed/low intell .... seems a waste to fire/sell them, but what to do with guys like that, which positions etc ??

I'm not convinced that the Draft Player averages helps ... most Draftees seem to have good Intell .... but is that because they need good intell ? or is it because nobody wants a Draftee with shit-for-brains ? or is it because Pete gives most Draftees good intell in order to create a smokescreen and hide whether good intell is really required for that position ??

The Intelligence Mystery needs to be solved, even if it means getting this gentleman on the case .....

The biggest smokescreen he created, is the choice of his QB... Guess that guy needs help to get his shoes tied

I have a guilty confession to make ......

I once scouted a few of Pete's players some time ago.
I thought that the confusion flowing through my brain about required skills/player balance/one-skillers etc etc would all be magically solved, and that I'd find the holy grail of 'prototype players'.

and what did I actually find ??

I found a weird assortment of players with a very eclectic (in fact, almost bizarre) mix of skills and skill levels.

to cut a long story short .... I just gazed at one or two of the scout reports and thought ... what ? why ? how? .... and finally .... WTF ?!!

so the motto of the story is ..... either my brain doesn't posses the required processing power to comprehend that Pete's players really are the holy grail, or ..... there are several roads that you can take in RZA and they might eventually all lead you to the same place.

Yes, he is so lazy, he creates a simutation game for himself and others, just to let his simulated players become a bunch of morons.

I'd rather have high INT in as many players as possible. Previously, I put my not-so-smart players at OL. However, after 2 seasons I found my dumbest OL, although possessing relatively high STR and BLO skills, to have the fewest pancakes. Consequently I believe INT even matters in OL, and not only in Center position.

Same applies to the WR position, where one of my highest skilled and paced players consistently underperforms (he has INT 18). A previous second-string WR is regulalry catching the long balls, although his SPE is a poor 32 (but INT 39).

I don't trust players with low INT anymore, at least according to my own research..
