This is the first copy of any FOF I have ever owned, and I wanted to try to get my first dynasty rolling. The reason I am doing this, is so I can get a feel for my team in a little more depth, by writing each detail out, so maybe I can understand them better. I will controlling the Minnesota Vikings as I am a Vikings fan.

The rosters are Fictional because that's the way uh-huh-uh-huh I like it(Loved doing Fictional Rosters for OOTP5).

My first impression on my team was that I will be a good running team with the occasional threat of the long ball. Which mimics the real Vikings in my opinion. So that's a good thing!

Oh yeah, did I tell you my RB is a rookie? I just noticed that myself. Hah! So much I know! Since I don't know how to put screenshots quite yet, I'll review my back a little bit for you:

Oliver McKinney
He's 5'10" and weighs a beefy 220 pounds.

His breakaway speed is 76 Overall with no potential in getting better.
Power Inside is a crushing 91 Overall.
He's an average 3rd Down RB with very little potential to get better in that department.

Oliver has above average hole recognition with some potential to get a little better in that department as well.

He has great speed to the outside and great potential as a threat as a reciever(can you say Marshal Faulk? PLEASE!! LOL).

Neil Kingsblood-QB

His name is cool, so I'll keep him for at least one year. It doesn't look like he'll be the perennial All-pro football QB but looks to put up average to above average numbers in his career. He's a 3rd year QB with still plenty of potential in lots of different facets of his game. He tends to scramble more than I would like, but as long as he wins games.

Dre' South-FL

He's the Randy Moss of the league. By far. His skills are all almost maxed out in every phase of the game. I'll be going to him whenever I pass. He is a for sure All-Pro player year in and out. He's in his 6th year as a player and looks to have many more very productive years. He is a fan favorite, with a good attitude towards his teammates. And of course there is a but, he's a complete dummy. He was one of those players who needed to hire classmates to take tests for him at Marshall(So this roster is based off the real life team? Sheesh, looks like it! So everybody's roster probably looks like this to start the season).

My offensive line is above average all the way across the line. So my running game will be spectacular with plenty of chances to go to the air.

I'll post Defense Later.....

Let's move onto the defensive side:

I won't get into too much detail on the defensive side because I'm itching to get the season underway(as I just watched the first Exhibition game, WOW!). My defensive line is the only PLUS on defense. Both the DT's are rated as good and have a little potential to get Very Good. The ends are both average and getting old so I'll have to look in next years draft to fill in the gap in a few years.

The LB Core is a decent one. They're not very good, but they have plenty of leadership with some speed.

DBacks are all above average with some potential. Overall I have a young Defense, averaging 26.1 years old. So I suspect I'll have this squad for a long time, for the most part.

In the first Exhibition game against Jackonsville the defense showed that they're going to be causing a lot of frustration for other teams. First 3 possesions for JAX, 3 interceptions. All three interceptions were made by the LB's with one of them getting two picks.

With 2 Fumble Recoveries and 4 total sacks, I'm hoping that my defense can do this every single game. As I think I'm going to need it since my Overall Team Rating comes to a 59, which is good for the bottom half of the league.

On the offensive side of the ball Dre' South my stud WR had a good game recieving 115 Yards in 7 catches and a TD.
Oliver had 17 rushes for 78 yards so I am impressed with him as well.

Kingsblood had a completion % of 61% while throwing 22 times and completing 15 of them for 183 yards and 1 TD. Good enough for me at this time in the Exhibition.
