Tynes seems to be having a rough season at kicker - you think about changing there or not too worried about it? Are you just simming to get through year one faster or are you going to sim every season? good luck!

As far as Portis goes, I have to put him 2nd on the depth chart to help him make it through the season I think.

I actually just re-signed Tynes. I know he is up and down, but I am going to see what happens with him. If he continues to drop I will look to make changes.

I am going to just sim this game. I don't want to get too in-depth with it before NCAA comes out, but if I just sim it then it is something I will be able to work on when my hand get sore.

Thanks! This is getting interesting!

His leg is getting pretty bad, as of last nite he was down to a 67% overall health. Like I said, I am going to have to keep an eye on him.

I'd be interested in your reason for not re-signing Avril. I can understand Rubin-I usually don't resign DTs either, but OLB can be very hard to fill on some paths.

At this point, to be honest, it is money. Right now I have about 2.5 million for next year. I have never quite figured out how to calculate how much it will go up, I know it does, but I just don't know how much.

So that is the only thing holding me up so far. If I can get that figured out, I will sign him.

I am sorry, I don't know why that table is soo big! I tried 3 times to post it and it just seemed to get bigger every time. If anyone can tell me how to make them smaller I would greatly appreciate it!!

Now, to that stupid game. For some reason DT Moore was benched before the game so I am sure that helped with them ripping me apart on the ground. my running game was a joke! When a team is giving up almost 200 yards on the ground something needs to be fixed.

I am really not sure what to do about RB Portis. I am heading into my bye week so we need the rest. I think I am going to rest the team for most of this week. But he has me concerned. Even though he only had 4 carries in the game against the Steelers, his health continues to drop. As of the Tuesday after the game (it was a Monday Night game) his leg is at 41% and his overall health is 66%. So if I can get him to the off-season maybe it will get better. He is too expensive to cut right now.

Here is my problem when it comes to re-signing this year:

I want to sign RB Robinson, he wants 12.4 million for 6 years and a 2.5 million bonus. OLB Avril, who has been starting at MLB for me wants 13.8 for 6 years and a 2 million bonus. If I end up cutting Portis and Carter at the end of the year (if I cant trade them) then I will still gain about 500k on the cap. Should I re-sign these 2 players with that in mind??
