lol .... I did a similar thing !

but I also started signing young Free Agents ...... I then had a big enough Roster so that I could sell my 4th round Draft Picks (or lower) as the quality of Draft Players is only high in the first few rounds.

It's quite an amusing game .... and very fast-paced (if you want to make it that way, there are several choices) .... and the whole Trading/Draft/Salary Cap interaction gives it an interesting slant in comparison to other games.

I've been concentrating on Trading away older players for Cash and Draft Picks, I also concentrated on Profits/Revenue and was stingy re the Salary Cap .... it means that now, even though I won the SuperBowl last season, I've got more Cap-room than any other team, more cash than any other team, and am more profitable than any other team ........ I desperately need a quality young QB & RB though, so I'll be spending big on those two if possible.

This game does have a certain amount of realism though .... I noticed that the Raiders are Shite !


and the redskins

I havent picked beyond the third round for about 10 seasons use the later picks as a sweetener on trades.

if you do decide to pick beyond the third go WR if the ratings are 85% or above trade them and you get players plus first rouners nearly everytime.

yeah, I noticed that there are often some really good WR's left even in the very late rounds ..... so I did start doing that, only problem was that I kept forgetting to trade the WR's .... I ended up with about 18 WR's on the Roster ! ...... I told my QuarterBack to play the Shotgun 10 WR formation on every snap
