Your thoughts on these 4 players as veteran OL guys? (Listed in no order)

Player 1

Player 2

Player 3

Player 4

3 is the best player, but highest wage. 4 is good to ok option kinda mix of 1-2 & 4, 1 and 2 are lower wages but still quality players...

You have a young team that needs to development that will take at least 2+ seasons. Employing any of these old guys would be a mistake for you. They only have 2+ years left before they retire. So when the rest of your team is ready, these guys are retired. AND MOST IMPORTANTLY. The old guys stole all that valuable playing time from the younger guys. Net effect= Your team is worse off.

Hope that helps

I personally would never go for 30+ age players, if not to plug a giant hole. On top those here have very high wages.

The 2 others you can only work with 1 season as given, everything on top would be a gift. The only good news is, after rollover they will be 30 and lower their wage demand by 30%.

Ok then, I honestly thought that my team should add another OL piece in order for us to grow, but if you really think I should wait for team success, thats fine. I will say though, the OL is the biggest need, there are 2 30 year old guys there and 3 25 year old guys that are studs, but I think that this a good opinion, maybe to get younger at OL instead of older...

Some promising prospects at OL, but not much... i mean their exp is 3 stars, could be a bit better, but still...

so probably should either:

buy one of the 29 year old low wage

or

get some prospects that are 21 to 23 ish that could be studs...

Thanks for the advice though!

valid point, i bid on the guy below instead of the other vets... i mean i guess if they are 28 or less they could be a bid, but you do make a point that they will retire at like 32 or 33 ish, just about 2 to 4 seasons left...

OL i bid on
