I have something for VC to do next year take CPU trading out of the game. Trades rarely happen in the NFL anyway that will solve everything.

What is funny is when I was watching the Sports Center after my game, they announced a trade and the guy commented on how rare trades are in the NFL compared to other sports.

Lol, whats funny is Randy Moss had a 150+ yard 2 td game to beat some team then gets traded for Kris Jenkins. Haha, one of the best DT's and one of the best WR's traded like that. Happened after Week 2. First big trade but I get massive injury reports every SportsCenter lol.

When you guys are having these weird trades, what difficulty level are you playing on? I tested this by starting a franchise on All-Pro, turned off weekly prep, and simmed through 3 seasons. During the regular season there were 2-3 trades leaguewide each year. In the offseason there were 3-4 trades. That was it.

I saw what I considered two bad trades: Jake Delhomme for Hugh Douglas, and a kicker for two position players. But I can live with one bad trade a year.

Maybe some of you guys who have wacky franchises could try starting a new one with the AP difficulty and weekly prep turned off and see how it goes.

That's like the 5th screwy trade I've seen involving a WR or QB and a DE/DT. That's just stupid and obviously wasn't QA'd (or just not fixed due to time crunch, more likely).

I think it's something VC can't get right because ESPN Basketball was the same way it made playing franchise unplayable. I dont know how it was for ESPN Baseball.
