Looks like I simmed a season or two forward from the thread. Monster 29 sack season from the LB Mueting and the QB is a triple Exceptional Affinity guy so I was clearly doing hard drugs.

It's in late FA so I'll sim through a bit and blast the season. Last ride of whoever these guys are and wipe the slate.

10-6 for the sunset crew. Bon voyage fellas.

(10-6 was good for a bye and these dorks won three games and the Bowl to go out heroes. I forgot how absolutely blessed this save game was.)

It's a cool point for us to knife this squad. We're 14 wins short of topping the all-time franchise list behind a very consistent Frederick org (pour one out for cuerv). This run of complete suck should bring us back to the pack a little.

We have a good staff, running a Smash offense and 43 D. I'm bringing them back for the sake of convenience.

This is the roster snap as we get through training camp. This is before any preseason games so it's not perfect. I think a few of the guys who look pretty might take dives and a few that don't might get their creep on. I'm debating walking through the position groups before the season but I might just sim through fairly quickly. As many know well, it takes a long while to build out this first misfit roster, but a lot of these guys have one foot in the grave already. It might make sense to highlight the guys who step up as we go.

(For those who aren't completely following what's happening... An "Island of Misfit Toys" dynasty is built around only using undrafted rookie free agents. All of the guys on this roster are rookies for now, but some of them will stick with us as the career plays out. We will only be able to add new groups of undrafted rookies to the team each year. Historically speaking, the team tends to be horrendous for the first few seasons, but as the years go by you tend to find success as cohesion advantages start to really pile up by maintaining a lot of continuity. I haven't played one of these even remotely recently, so I'm hoping it's not somehow a lost cause in the current universe. I'm willing to bet we'll eventually start building momentum and we'll see where it goes.)

My keys on building this first group were basically ->

QB: Scrambling, Accuracy, Sense Rush, Passing bars as a bonus
RB: Hole Recognition
TE/WR: Route Running
OL: One big blocking bar without an apparent zero in the other
D7: Big bar hunt with an eye toward two lines, one normal and one pass-focused, and we'll likely look to split them up completely
DB: Current value, as much red barz as we can throw in the mix with no philosophy or scheme filtering

Ok, so, yeah. Definitely atrocious. We went with QB Arredondo for the first 10 games of the season, mostly because he looked like he might have had a slightly better move in camp than the others. He went 0-10.

We switched it up and went to QB Tate to finish the year and he went 3-3. Tate has the much bigger scrambling bar, and I think he likely just did a slightly better job of running out of some bad throws. I'm pretty convinced that the scramble bar can save a guy who is not very good at throwing the ball from trying to throw the ball. If that ends up being a few more positive yardage plays each game, you're probably moving the needle.

We didn't get good rushing production necessarily, but it's hard to adjust for how absolutely putrid we are. We have a couple of RBs who actually look like useful pieces on a normal team but there's not a lot to help them.

The passing game was disastrous. There's really no way to overcome our particular recipe here. No talent, no experience, no cohesion, no soup for you.

I'm all ears if someone sees something interesting defensively. We seemed to actually kind of hold up when we were in games where the offense was competitive.

Here's our roster as we get to the draft class reveal in the offseason. The guys who are giving off some longer term vibes right now:

RBs Schultz and Curry
WR Brennan
TE Farmer
C Walker
A good number of guys defensively

I'd say we really need to get lucky on some OL. That was a bit of a theme even when we were drafting "dragons" in the 4th. We're also kind of dabbling with only adding guys with high intelligence on the OL. One nice advantage of the post-draft world we're signing guys in is that you can at least peek at those traits. Our talent level is really bad here though, and it's impactful. We need some luck.

QB... I was impressed with Tate winning a few games. I'm resigned to us rolling with a gimp here. You need WR cohesion to put together any kind of passing attack in our circumstances, and that's going to take some time. I am ok with Tate heading into next year if it comes to that.

We'll see what we get. Just jotting some thoughts before we dig into the next class. There's always some inertia and real advantages to sticking with the guys in place. Hopefully there are a couple guys out there who make it easy for us.

We took 67 guys through camp. This a snap after Pre3, and we made basically our final cutdowns after seeing those moves.

Some intriguing new faces, and we did some position moving to get guys into spots where there skills show some shiny Cur/Fut numbers as well. I'm not even sure I like DT Ezekiel Sanderson but he's our highest rated player after some weight training and a move from DE.

It looks like it's gonna be QB Tate to start. I'll probably rearrange a few depth charts and get some of these rookies in there as well. The offense looks like it's going to be almost entirely the same crew from last year. Let's cohese a little.

I'm kind of thrilled with this. We also made a pretty big overhaul of our depth charts after the 0-5 start. We were getting absolutely annihilated before that point. I want to see it play out next year, but there's a chance we're an ugly 7-9 team next year or something if we keep the personnel stuff straight. We're clearly not good, but the 3rd down "line" defensively seems to be a viable concept with our limitations. I don't know if going pure specialist there is the driver for these results but it's kind of huge considering we don't do anything else all that well.

Tate was solid. I'm still keeping an eye on things there but this was light years ahead of last year. Run game kind of stinks. Stuff to think about.

Old friend Mercury Botta, the universe's all time receptions leader, went into the Hall of Fame at 99%. His #17 is retired.

We land a CB, Carter Wallin, who honestly looks like a late first round talent. He might be a 60+ corner which really fits our "scheme."

We also add MLB Bob Mascorella who I think might be one of the MLB->DE conversion profiles that leave us with a good all around edge guy. Those ILBs are a great place to shop for guys with good run, pass technique, and endurance (and as many other red bar goodies as you can find). They might lack the coverage skills to really fit as LBs but you can find some real diamonds in a conversion.

We mix in a few more CBs, a WR Dancy, a flyer G. There are no QB candidates. I'm still pretty concerned about the OL, and it's clearly going to be a compounding problem because those guys just develop so damn slowly. Our current RT completely sucks but I'm going to keep playing him because I don't know if I'll ever stumble into a 30ish current guy.

The DL is a secondary concern as well. I think we're in a better spot there by being able to throw a lot of bodies at the problem.

Big regression defensively seems to be the story. I think I may have strayed a tick from our pure division of labor approach situationally. We were also trying to get some of the rookies who are definitely a part of our future like CB Wallin and DE Mascorella on the field a lot to develop. Might have held us back.

The offense looks dangerously competent. Tried to really dial into spreading the targets around and making sure none of our WRs end up being the 8-10+ targets per game guys that they're just not built to be. That was clearly helpful.

We flipped the script a little by getting off to a decent start and then sliding down the stretch. I think the defense is largely a talent issue that we can only solve by slowly adding a couple more real players each year. A not so sneaky subplot with the offense was a fairly massive issue with sacks. We had 67 of them, comfortably the worst in the league. I'm not sure how to solve that one without a gift from the dice roll gods and a new QB.

QB Richey was inducted to the Hall of Fame with 100% of the vote last year. WR Rich Replogle got in this year. Both have their numbers retired.

G Devin Sanford - looks like an actual 55ish starting caliber interior lineman.(!!!)
RB Deron Rogers - elite receiving look, will be a great fit for us.
RB Corwin Koski - not quite as good as our current starter Curry, but should be our new backup runner.
TE Mitchell Fisk - just looks like well-rounded quality depth.
WR Zane McClellan - big RR bar.
DEs Toll/Graham - depth

Not sure all of these guys will even make it to the roster snap.

Week 1 snap.

We tried to bring a few rookie QBs in to see who might pop or appear interesting after camp. I think we brought 4 in. We're going to keep a couple but I'm not sure I'm ready to jump from Tate. Inertia man.

We also made a few coordinator/coaching changes last offseason. I'm not sure if our scouting is better or worse but these guys seem to like the roster more. We've got a few 60+ type players in their eyes.

Don't know what to expect, but I'm sticking with Tate mostly to see if we've taken a step forward. Want to see how we play before watching a rookie QB.

And now the defense is very good...

The running game is very respectable. We tried to play two rookies on the right side of our line this year, with Budgell playing RG and Sanford playing out of position at RT. I don't have any reason to think that killed us. We're still really short on line talent, but I think we have a group of guys that can stay/grow into respectability.

I probably should have tweaked some WR usage even more to bring Brennan down into a sub 100 targets for the season place. I think the passing game will continue to improve simply because of cohesion, but Tate is obviously limited and the WRs aren't particularly good either. We started playing the receiving back rookie (Rogers) in a WR slot for a stretch there. He was better than the guy he replaced but we were still pretty shaky there.

We are actually kind of talented on the defensive side now. We will likely never have a stud of any kind, but it seems to be reasonable to think we can scatter a lot of 50ish guys around and try to play some specialist role angles.

I think to actually be good we need to unlock something in the passing game. I'll keep hoping for an intriguing QB but we're probably going to get to watch how cohesion brings a bit more production out of these guys.

We've been starting QB Pritchett in the preseason and he's been very good. We're gonna try it out early.

File it as a good solid meh.

Pritchett takes off quite a bit and scrambles. I'm not sure there were net gains there over Tate. I'm going to count this season as a general confirmation that we still need to find a quarterback. Helpful that we kind of broke the seal on trying a new guy instead of just riding the cohesion train with Tate.

WR Dancy is starting to look good and perform well.

Defense was solid.

There's a lot of zombie parts taped together in this gameplan/playbook. I might start fresh and mess around there.

Couple of new coordinators with a retirement and a fresh start on offense. We go with a young up and comer with a spread focus. We're moving from 4-3 Over to a 4-3 Under. Somebody jump in if I should expect massive changes in anything there.

Roster snap. (It's actually Week 17 but roll with it.) We switched QBs again, giving another scrambler a twirl but one with slightly better Sense Rush.

We got off to a tremendous start and I thought I was a genius.

Ultimately, we snagged a Wild Card spot on the last day of the season. We head to division rival Fairbanks to start the playoffs.

Big picture I think the tedium of building out a new playbook yielded some positives. I think I probably wish I'd kept a few of the old passing game parts. Might need to tweak/add there. I also might be getting a tick greedy. There might be some gains to be add with some personnel tweaks or something. And Samuels was a first year starter so there should be cohesion benefits with time. He was very effective as a scrambler. Pretty good year really. The defensive numbers are skewed by actually having some offensive competence I think.

We'll see if the playoff magic has carried over...

One and done as Fairbanks drops us 23-20 in OT. (Our third OT loss of the year.) No real complaints.

LG Ashton Bugden is a 1st Team All Pro. He allowed 0 sacks.

Part of the move to QB Drake Samuels was at least some hope we could cut down on our 60+ sacks each year. The drop to 29 this year was enormous. Maybe I shouldn't be in such a rush to overhaul this passing attack...

Pre-Camp Look. We try to add some fresh blood. Our original guys are 7th year players now. Some of them are fading just a tick (or fast), which we could really do without. It's not really a bad roster. We have a good base of solid players. We lack impact throughout really and we lack generally at QB/WR/OL. Tough place to lack in those three spots. We can get by with fringe average at a lot of spots or try to play situationally on defense. QB/WR/OL (QWOL?) are important spots and having a collection of mediocrity there probably pins a lot of hopes on a cohesion snowball.

All that said, new RB Otis Stapleton is one of the more interesting pickups we've had. He's got some absolutely dynamic combines and he's pretty good at almost all the bars other than Hole Rec (cringe). We'll see where that goes. We were getting good production out of RB Curry for years, but he was quickly losing steps. It seems to be a spot where we can find replacements.

Pretty clearly our best team by my eyes. The offense is constructed around this particular group of losers, and there are some real gains from spreading the targets around when your guys are fringey former bag boys. QB Drake Samuels also continues to save us from some bad plays by just taking off.

D was solid. I'm honestly not doing a whole there other than trying to rotate our DL situationally. CB Wallin had a massive year.

I'm pretty happy with this. We still feel like we're not quite good enough to put together a 12 win season or something. And I'm not really sure what the path there might be. Samuels is just finishing year 2. I don't think we're going to stumble into a stud receiver. We're gonna push the "spread it around" lever even further next year with more formations I guess. Get all these guys under 100 targets or something.

We get Fairbanks on the road again as a Wild Card team.

We lose 23-20 in OT. Which is exactly the final score, team, and circumstances of our season's end a year ago. I liked it better when we just won the Bowl every trip to the playoffs.

CB Carter Wallin was a 1st Team All Pro.

Nobody else. I honestly think there's a chance Samuels could get there with the Pass+Rush combo production.

I think we need to clean up some loose ends this offseason. We're kind of in range of the sort of team where really dialing in our special teams as much as possible could be really helpful. We had bad returners last year and that's basically unacceptable in these circumstances. Those guys are floating out there and we had some good ones early, just let it slip last year.

Hoping for some OL talent too.

Pre-Camp look. Didn't really hit the lottery with the available pool of players. Added some return guys. Hoping to hit on another RB or something. We're starting to shed a few of the fading guys and we'll likely shed a few more post-camp. Think there are real pressures to keep some passing game cohesion but otherwise we'll probably have to rotate new guys in as our dudes approach years 8-10.

We're hosting a playoff game. Woot. The defense regressed. So much for infusing fresh blood. (Note to self, ride the cohesion train all the way off the cliff.) I mean honestly the defense was flat weird. A lot of bad there, and the turnover stuff is almost silly.

We turned it over a fair amount, but that differential is pretty heavily skewed by a lack of takeaways. We had a bunch of fumbles... but I had to go digging to find them. QB Samuels was pretty good. And the rookie we slotted into our primary rusher spot was great. Our cool new returners fumbled 10 times. Another big win for my "addressing offseason objectives" resume. We got much better from a return yardage standpoint... Seriously though, the rookie CB punt returner we signed (who does nothing else) was top 5 in average yardage but fumbled 6 times on 30 returns. Is that even possible?

The defensive regression is doubly frustrating because I feel like I've delicately constructed some kind of legitimate offense that hinges on a refreshing communist spirit in the receiving corps. And I'm just not sure how viable the whole house of cards is.

Ah well, maybe we can win a playoff game.

No such luck, we get bounced 23-6 by Frederick. Couple stalled red zone drives, couldn't really stop the pass. My working theory is that competent offense leads to more leads/more passing from your opponents leads to exposing our lack of talent on the D side. We also may have fallen in love with a couple of "good" DL guys who are almost 60 rated overall. They're solid but they're not the pure situational specialists we were rolling with when having a bit more success. Might have to roll that back. Good players will kill you man.

I'm also extremely fascinated by how terribly this offense just performed in a separate test I just ran with what appeared to be a rich man's version of this roster. We only have a 67 in the passing cohesion category but this gimp collection appears to have some other magic working.

K Desmond Chapman is 1st Team All Pro. Probably means we're stalling out too many damn drives.

CB Carter Wallin is a 2nd Teamer. It's his 3rd time on the 1st/2nd team through 6 seasons. I think it'd be cool if we got a HOF CB over the line in a misfit dynasty. He might not end up in the rotation program next year.
