So far it's more of a meta-mod, with a collection of data that should be easily applied to the format of whatever football game can import it. FOF rosters were originally the goal with accurate rosters and college UDFAs and other league players being FAs, but after some significant scope creep here we are. The dream is now for someone to pick up the torch that the OOTP people dropped and make a game with multiple leagues and integrated history.
Leagues: NFL, CFL, UFL, WLAF/NFLE, AAF, XFL, USFL, some Arena
Years: 1981-2021
What's currently included:
Player vitals, basic player ratings, rosters, stats, awards, League/Team HOFs, league histories, XLS spreadsheet format
What's planned:
Historical contract info, detailed ratings, more Arena, Database format
The way the rosters have been set up is more or less a "snapshot" of NFL rosters in late August/early September. Basically best effort training camp rosters, so some will be 90+ players. Other leagues are basically assumed to have a similar schedule and setup, despite the fact they very much don't. Sorry CFL, the NFL is wagging this dog.
Current stats:
40 years of football
240+ franchises
28000+ players
150,000+ player seasons
90+ years of stats
Current status: Finishing linking up the stats to unique player IDs. After that I'll probably do some cleaning up of the data and find somewhere to post the data, for anyone who might be interested.
