All Pro 1st Team

RB Jeffrey Torelli
OC Bill Jeffries
K Johnny Ballard


All Pro 2nd Team

OT Alonzo Escribano
NT Preston Wynn

League’s Fastest Man – WR Ernest Gassner


Good job Clemons! And Jeffries! I’m sad that Gassner’s injury kept him from his 4th All Pro. Just 5 All Pros, none for the first time.

[Abe Sargent]

Stats –

Offensive

Passing

QB Bratsch – 331 of 483, 68.5%, 3472 yards, 27:8. 100.9 rating

He led the league in rating by 11, % by 4.1, was 3rd in scores. Not bad buddy!


Rushing

RB Torelli – 455 for 2212, 4.86 ypc, 17 scores

He set the record for most rush yards in a season which was 2,177. He led the league in rush yards by 811 and in scores by 6. Great year! Torelli has been a revelation!


Receiving




No judgment here Gassner was stopped by injury when he was 3rd in the league in receiving heading into the 14th game of the season and he only played 13 games and 1 drive of another. He had a good postseason though. Torelli was 2nd on my team in grabs and 3rd in yards with 520 and netted me more than 2.7k yards from scrimmage and Schultz was 3rd with 532 yards. Moss in his rookie year wasn’t great and he was injured for a bit too.


Blocking





Jeffries has been playing up to his talent level the last few seasons and just got his 2nd All Pro at a tough place to do so – OC. Escribano showed his colors and grabbed me another 40 KRB which is huge for OTs. He as 2nd in the league in KRB at the OT spot. His 10 pancakes led the league by 1. Lynn was tied for 2nd most pancakes with 9. Great year blocking! McGilicuddy dropped back down after two great eyars and All Pros. Every one of my line has All Pros save for Lynn. Three have 2 All pros save for Clifton who has just one.


Special Teams

K Ballard - 47 of 55, Long of 57, 49 of 51 PAT

He had the most FG made by 4 and the most PAT made of by 6. What can you say?

P Evans – 59 punts for 46.6 avg, 26 in 20

A great year by Evans, his best!


No returns this year


ILB Vaughn – 26 special teams tackles

[Abe Sargent]

Defensive




Another down year for sacks, for most of my players. Vaughn led my team in tackles with a nice 118 and then grabbed me 2 sacks. 7 sacks for SLB Garrett in his first year is pretty saucy. Just 11.5 for Samuels, rookie Clemons netted me 8.5 which was good for a rookie, and Wynn got hist 3rd All Pro with 9.5 sacks which is a ton of sacks. WLB Tosi needs to improve his sack numbers from 4.5.


Pass Coverage




This was also a down year for my secondary. Just 3 picks led my team and Vaughn, Frederickson and Cook each had that. None of those had double digit pasdef seasons. Henry another low pick season with 12 pasdef. He has 66 picks rating he should be dong better than that. Garrett tied for the lead on my team with 12 pasdef but I’d like a pick or two from my starting SLB. A down year. I need to really invest in a better secondary as my guys have dropped off in talent like Simonsen and Cook and Byrnes and you can see it here.

[Abe Sargent]

Off. Player of the Year – RB Jeffrey Torelli – Dude sets a record with rush yards in a season, dude wins this award.

Def. Player of the Year – DT Preston Wynn - My sole All Pro on defense, had a great year in a bad year of sacks.

The 2098 NFL FA Period #1

I review the draft and interview many DBs. Like 8. We need to renovate my secondary.


Before I sign anyone I cut TE Dubin this frees 27 mill. I don’t need three good TEs, and that money will be needed elsewhere.

I sign my lone RFA and have 43

Now before anyone else I have a rookie we need to talk about

RB Torelli – the 2 time league MVP and 2k guy wants 307 mill over 5 years. I currently have 28 mill available for new players. Torelli would have an increased cap hit of 39 mill. Where can I free up another 12 mill or so?

I cut FS Cook. He has a cap cost of 25 mill and we save 19 mill by cutting the 41/41 veteran.

I extend Torelli. I have 8.3 mill left


Vets in Last Year of Contract

I extend my LS

SE Schultz – Dropped to 52/52, wants 88 mill for 4 years. No thanks

LG Clifton – 8th year vet, wants 67 mil for 3 years. I hold off until post draft

WILB Cote – I’ll let him go he dropped to 51/51 last year

LT Richie McGillicuddy – He wants 96 mill for 3 years, which is a cap rise of 12 mill. I cannot do that right now.

K Ballard – Wants 101 mill for 4 years. I do it

Cb Bart Juckett – Wants 33 mill over 3 years. I do it.


Rookies In Final Year of Deal

WR Unger – Wants 107 mill over 4 years which is reasonable. I don’t have the cap space. We’ll let him go.



I cut Cote. I get 7.6 in cap space. I sign McGillicuddy.

I have 6.6 mill in cap space. Any of my UFAs I wanna chase?

Free are Schneider, Frederickson, Simonsen, and

I offer Frederickson for 14.79 mill for 2 years.

Week 6 – Frederickson signs with us, Schneider heads to Baltimore.

Week 7 – Dubin heads to Houston

Week 8 – Whitney heads to Green Bay

Week 11 – Wilkerson heads to Jax

Week 12 – RB Springer heads to NYG

[Abe Sargent]

The 2098 NFL Amateur Draft

Ready for the next to last interjection of talent for the decade and century?

Drafting first is the Carolina Panthers. I think they’ll go with … OT Braxton Dawkins a 7.0 stud. They go WR David Whitfield. Dawkins heads 1.2 to Richmond one of our old teams. We have a deep draft with 7 DBs with 5.8 or higher and I interviewed them all.

The 1.31 arrives. Who do I like here?

Every DB rated 5.8 is off the board…sad..

FS Ashton Coleman – Overrated, 2nd best DB on the board
CB Mackenzie Collins – Top DB on the board, no interviews horrible picks,
SLB Cory Conklin – Stud in everything save run d where he’s really bad. I could grab him and start him for Garrett at SLB although his weakness isn’t good at SLB where we like those tackles. He might be better at the pass rush all the time WLB.
CB Arnie Zeigler – 3rd best DB on the board, good picks
FS Gustavo Learned = 4th best DB o the board, also bad with the picks

Who do you like here?






Here’s Conklin. As you can see he looks great everywhere – coverage, pass rush, play D and hitting, but not at run d. He’d probably not be a 70 LB without that key ability. Is he worth a 1.31 pick?

Is this the Conklin draft? Or do I reach for a CB/S?

[Abe Sargent]

I do CB Collins, the top DB on the board as he has the best bars although he’s low in picks. I cannot in good conscience take a SLB that low in Run Blocking.


2.31– FS Cooper Cunningham? LG Axel Blake? Blake is very green and more of a pass blocker. DE Silas McConnell? He seems pretty sexy and keen but more of a run stopper. I do Blake.


3.31 – WR Hunter Nieves? Yup!


4.31 – Who do I like here? CB Scott McAdams? I do it. It’s insurance on Collins busting. He looks like a grower.


5.31 – SLB Trenton Brady? He’s the BAP.


6.31 – MLB Zack Everett? He looks like a grower.

Save vote at 7th pick.

7.31 – TE Mitchell Dawkins? I only have 3 TEs on my roster. Looks like a grower as well.


Rookie Lookie #1

1.31 – CB Mackenzie Collins, Auburn, 32/62

Extensions

I extend DE Nordbye by a year.

I extend… WR Campbell by 3 years.


Rookies





Here’s the new stud CB Collins, he’s bad at punching, but is good everywhere else and he boomed a lot! Check out those picks!




Here’s my new OG Axel Blake, a 69 pot guy, his weakest part is his run blocking not good on a smashmouth team and he’s likely to be a placeholder under a better run blocker arrives on the scene. I doubt I’ll give him a pro contract on a team this trapped for cash as all of my triumvirate are on cap-busting pro deals.

OG – 84, 69 – we are 2nd best, 61, 5 50s
OT – 86, 3 70s, 2 60s, 5 50s. One 77 guy was on the board at 1.31 and if Collins had busted it would have been a good pick.
DL – 73, 2 60s, 5 50s
LB – 6 50s. Wow light year. Brady the best at just 57 pot.
DB – 3 70s, Collins is the best, 3 60s, 9 50s

[Abe Sargent]

Stats


Offensive


Passing

QB Bratsch – 325 of 495, 65.7 %, 3836, 34:13, 101.0 rating

He led in scores, rating, and was 2nd in yards.

Rushing

RB Torelli – 437 for 1794, 4.11 ypc, 10 score

A down year in scores and yards but still led the league in yards by hundreds.


Receiving




Gassner led the league by 147 yards over the next highest person. He was 2nd in grabs and led with 13 scores. Moss was 2nd with a solid 774 yards on 72 grabs and 9 scores and was 2nd on my team in both and had a much better year than his rookie year. Torelli dropped a lot all the way down to just 379 yards which crossed 2k. No one other than my top two with 500+ yards.


Blocking



Once again an OT has led my team in KRBs and Jeffries was very down from the last two seasons. McGillicuddy was rocking his 3rd All Pro for me and was 2nd for OTs in KRBs. A solid year for my line and rookie Blake was very nice with 26 KRB as a very green rookie.


Special Teams

K Ballard – 39 of 46, Long of 57, 49 of 51 PAT

What can I say that I haven’t; said? A down year for the lad still led the league.

P Evans – 74 punts, 44.1 avg, 29 in 20

Not bad, not good.

Gassner – 2 PR RET TDs

Byrnes – 21 special teams tackles

[Abe Sargent]

Defensive





Vaughn a studly 117 solo tackles but no pressure at all this year. Samuels grabbed me 12 sacks and crossed 100! Wynn a down year with just 4.5 sacks. Clemons in his 2nd year netted me just 6.5 sacks which is down from his rookie year. Garrett grabbed me a great 8 sacks. We need to do better in terms of sacks.


Pass Coverage





Collins led my team with pasdef at 13 and picks at 6. He was a great player and was robbed of All Pro as the most picks were 7 by one CB. Just one other CB had 6 picks so he should have gotten 2 All Pro with 13 pasdef to their 8 and 17, but nope. No awards. That would not happen in reality a 6 pick and 13 pasdef year would always get an All Pro when the league lead is 7. No one else was good with picks save Frederickson with 3, but we had a great year for pasdef so I can’t be too annoyed. Save at Henry.

[Abe Sargent]

Team Awards

Off. Player of the Year – WR Ernest Gassner – His 4th All Pro and he dominated the league in yards and TDs and was 2nd in catches by one. Great year buddy!

Def. Player of the Year – SLB Ray Garrett -Our sole Def. All Pro. Dude wins All Pro dude wins this award.

Sp. Teams Player of the Year – K Johnny Ballard – What can I say?

Rookie of the Year – CB Mackenzie Collins – 6 picks? 13 pasdef? Robbed of All Pro? Yup!

Heart Award – DE Griffin Nordbye – A backup DE in a bad year sacks netted me three full sacks. Good stuff!

Players in Final Year of their Deal –

The 2099 NFL Amateur Draft

Final draft of the century!

Drafting 1st is Pittsburgh. I like QB Trent Flowers for them. And…they grab him

1.32 arrives. Who do I like?

DE Dominique Gray – Top player on the board, could replace Samuels. No interview, okay bars
WILB Cary Moss – 2nd best player on the board, Hard to Read, okay bars, great run stopping,
C Nickolas Harris – Top C in draft, okay bars, underrated. Jeffries is in his 10th year.
SLB Alvin Godzik – 2nd best LB on the board, - Overrated
WLB Derrick Shade – 3rd best LB on the board, Hard to Read – good run d and pass rush
CB Leland Cook – Great picks, top DB on the board, Hard to Read. I need a new starter at S.

I skip Gray, his bars are just okay. What do you do here?

I can make arguments for Moss, Harris, and Shade and maybe Cook.

Here they are.




Great run stopping and good play D and okay pass rush, a good ILB.




Great run stop and pass rush – good at WLB.





Styling picks, good coverage for things not named man to man.




Jeffries replacement, not great run blocking.


What do you do?

[Abe Sargent]

I need a new OC. Jeffries is still playing well but for how long? I go with Harris.





2.32 – FS Bart Mathews? OT Gerald Emerson? WLB Shade? Did Shade fall? He went 2.30 just two picks before us. I take Mathews.


3.32 – RB Herman Riley? WR Leslie Donaldson? Riley – I want a better backup for Torelli.


4.32 – DT Donny Wagner? SS Peyton Womack? I go Womack he looks pretty good for here and will be bust insurance for Mathews.


5.32 – SLB Phil Blouch? He looks pretty sexy.


6.32 – RT Gene Walton?


7.32 – CB Johnny Torrez?

Meh

Rushing

RB Torelli – 388 for 1831, 4.80 ypc, 22 score

Nasty yards and loads of scores. He set a record for the most rush scores in a season.


Receiving




Gassner a solid year as my QB’s pass yards dropped beneath 3500. He was 7th in yards in the league. Campbell my only other 500+ year with 595 on 43 grabs and 3 scores and a 100 yard game.


Blocking





Another year with a OT as my top KRB. Schneider was okay in his debut with 25 KRB and just 2 sacks allowed. This is Lynn’s 2nd year with an All Pro award. Good stuff!


Special Teams

K Ballard – 37 of 44, Long of 56, 56 of 60 PAT

An okay year for Ballard.

P Evans – 85 for 43.6 avg and 46 in 20

A great 20 % by Evans, the best in the league.

Gassner/Nieves – Each 1 KR RET TD

ILB Vaughn 24 special teams tackles

[Abe Sargent]

Defensive



Vaughn was 3rd in solo tackles in the league with a nasty 131. He also netted me 3 sacks and that was great and helped his 3rd All Pro. Nordbye led my team with a great 15 sacks which was 4th most in the league at any position. Clemons grabbed me 9 sacks and we need to do better. Wynn was held to just 4.5 sacks. Garrett 5.5 sacks in 10 starts. Okay is sacks – not good, not bad.


Pass Coverage




Collins led all CBs in picks with 6, a S had 7. He also grabbed a pick six and 14 pasdef. He was the sold good player on my team. Not even Henry had 10+ pas def. My rookies were okay with Womack getting 2 picks and 7 pasdef and Mathews 3 picks and 6 pasdef. Vaughn 3 pick. Weak year otherwise
