It just occured to me that we need too many CBs in this game atm.

You really need at least 6 - 4 for the 4CB formation, an allowance for 1 injured b4 the game and then another during it.

And we need at least 4 SFs - so that's 10 DBs all up. Too many?

Sould we simply have DBs?

Or maybe allow 2 DBs per team that can play CB or SF without the position penalty?

I have 6 CBs and 4 SFs on my depth chart and I don't feel like I miss players on other positions.
It's a management game, you know?

I can understand your request, but I think this would make the game a little bit easier or let's say more autopilot.

Our Australian friend likes autopilot. It's a shame you cant see who has suggested what that would prove my point

It's not really that big of a deal, but NFL teams typically do not have or need 10 DBs.

IRL, there are plenty of CB/FS hybrids. Most FSs are ex CBs and when they get older and fatter they become SSs.

Look at Ronnie Lott's career. Rod Woodson, etc.

So how about CBs can play SF without penalty, but not the other way around?

Thinking on that.................. That would mean you'd have all CBs and no SFs. And then the SF coach is not needed.

But then if a CB plays SF in a game he does not get the in game bonus unless there is a SF coach. And there would still be a chem/morale penalty to change position from CB to SF and vice-versa so you'd still need/want a SF coach.

Actually, 11 DBs are needed. 5 SFs and 6 CBs to cover the 4-1-6 and 3-3-5 properly.

BTW, if I had a DC with 5 DL and 1 gets injured during the game, and then the 5-3-3 or 5-2-4 is called, what happens? Random player?

If you have other DL in your roster and if there's place in DC, he will play AFAIK

Maximum number of Players on Senior Roster = 70

Maximum number of Players on Depth Chart = 55

use the maximum(s) ...... it's more than enough.
