Thought it would be fun to have a thread where you can post and brag about a player (see if you can match #, or change your players # to match) on your team. Try posting a pic of the player, if you need help, let me know.

UCLA TE Andrew Valenza was my 1.28 pick in the 2032 draft. His first two seasons at WR were very good, then the next 4 seasons were way below his average, less than 1/3 of what he was doing before. It was a real mystery to me. Switched him to TE the last 2 seasons and he went crazy, last season leading all receivers in catches (129!), yards (1684), and 2nd most TDs with 10. Probably the best position conversion move that Ive ever made in this game. I didnt re-sign him, he went to FA and I got him back in FA2, with a 2 yr contract. whew!! That was where his low rating for TE threw everyone off.

2039 season rushing leader, Ohio State Buckeye James Sauer with 352 carries for 1536 yds. and a nice 4.4 ypc. His default rating is only 71! He was signed off waivers in pre-season 2038. So, always keep your eye on the waiver list for gems like this one!



(matched Sauers # in the pic JAB! lol)

NCAA Sack leader last season, with 26 sacks & 16 hurries, was LSU's Larry Dews. He only had 3 sacks the previous season! Illinios had #2 and 3!!, tied with 22 sacks each, John Slaughter and Craig Smith. Both teams were Conference Champions, a good pass rush is important for your defense, same in RL.

The theft leader for last season was LSU's dominant CB1, Christopher Baxter, with 12 interceptions. He also had an outstanding 38.6% catch allowed. He definitely performed up to his rating (93). going into his 7th season, he was a 1.11 pick in the 2034 draft (wonder how some of the first 10 picks in front of him turned out!) Edit: I looked at the 2034 draft, and there were a lot of great picks in the first ten! most are starting and are top rated players.
