Problems with Position Changes?

i got a freshamn Athlete that was 6'1" and 214 lbs, he came with an 80 rating as an athlete but a 96 rating at DE because of his 4.4 spd and 80 strength??? c'mon now, a LB maybe but no way is a freshman 214 lb kid goin to be a stud his first year at DE. i've also had a 6'5" 213 pound guy project to an 80 at FB and 72 was his highest rating anywhere else. this is stupid

At least your getting good athletes. All mine always project to be QBs. I have 8 QBs on my roster all around 75-82 with 80-90 speed. I just want a wr or cb from one of them..

You'd be surprised by some of the linemen's size. In editing in the names on my own, I've seen some defensive linemen that were 205 lbs and linebackers that were 195 lbs. I don't remember what team it was, but they had a center that was 210. He must be a long snapper.

Going in on my second year I i recruited ATH Justin Kirkpatrick. Then I was Seeing what position would be best for him. 98 at DE. First Year. Now he is a 99 and ruling the line. Whoa that rhymed.

You can't change the height and weight?

Basically you can turn any average OLB into a stud DE.

I had a FR linebacker that was a 70 and now is an 84 rated DE starting at LE. Last game he had 6 tackles and 1 sack. He is light though...and often get's thrown down by the OL...but he's fast and chases down a play or two a game.

So I guess they are rated high due to their SP, AC, and TKL.

Obviously you are not looking closely at their attributes during recruiting. When you convert an Athlete, they will all have 40 speed, awareness, bench, and squat listed. But depending on what position they will likely play, they will also have arm strength/accuracy (if the Athlete projects to be a QB), hands (for a WR), etc. You should have a good idea what position they will likely play before you ever recruit them.

That is true, and you can also tell by the picture of the player. Each position has a different pose of a player, such as QB, RB, WR, DT, etc. You can tell by that too. I think all DBs have the same picture though.
