Re: JSOU'S 2008-09 Roster Update #1

This is our 2008-2009 Roster file and settings. I also included a franchise file (with the new schedule of course) for those of you that can't wait to play an 08 season or franchise. Also I just wanted to say that for our rosters to play as we intended them to play you need to use our settings. For better players you can turn the pass and run block down, or if your not as skilled turn them up a couple clicks, but all other sliders should be let were they are. This update includes the following:
1. We used gettyimages.com for game day photos. In doing so we achieved about 96-100% matches for player skin color as well as all player equipment. This makes our roster look beyond real. This took about 2 hours each team.
2. Thanks to 500bloc and puja, we used combine numbers such as 40 times, bench and vertical jump to update players as far back as 2000. We still kept our ratings in all other areas just used combine numbers for those three areas.
3. Free agency updated as of 5-12-08 (Greg Spires to Oak not done), though he is a free agent so you could just add him to Oakland if you like. It is still really hard to with free agency still in progress to know which players won't be re-signed.
4. 2008 NFL Draft, rounds 1,2 and most of three as well as some big name rookies and other rookies that were needed to build up some rosters were also added. Rookie ratings are obviously not done to a tee, but are fairly close. Combine numbers were used, but fine tuning will happen at a later update, once player movement comes to a close we will add more rookies as needed.
There will be updates leading all the way up to the 08-09 Season. any questions you can email me at [email protected] or pm me here. hope you guys enjoy, play a couple games and give me some feedback. thanks josh

is this for the 360.

Hey, great rosters, I noticed some people have over 100 attributes, like 127 cover and 115 run stop... how does this work and what is an average rating now

Franchise file will be included.

I think Im out of the loop...Why do we need a franchise file? Why not just start our own from the roster file?

not too mention that it's alot more fun playing a season anyway.

Franchise file is where it's at. frig the roster file.

NFC East finished today, I'm a little behind schedule but I'd rather be more take my time now so it will be easier to put out the final 08 roster file. For those of you playing franchises using my roster and settings, let me know your win loss records, I'm curious to know how those settings play for those of you that are using them.

Just thought I would chime in for you I played half a franchise with your rosters and settings and I am very pleased with them.Im currently 4-4 with the Redskins.I have beaten the teams I should beat and the more superior teams like the Cowboys and Steelers were huge test,even though I was able to make plays they were still the superior team and it showed.I haven't had this much fun with playing football game since lord knows when....You did a bang up job with these rosters and settings,im having a blast,if I can figure out how to get the DE off the Punt Returns ill be in heaven.....I am definitly looking frward to your opening day rosters,keep up the great work jsou...

Re: JSOU'S 2008-09 Roster Update #1

Using your rosters and settings, I'm currently 5-0 using the Steelers. Running the ball inside is really tough, but I like a challenge. I just wish the cpu passed more effectively. I'm batting down passes constantly, and the cpu barely makes a third of their passes. Any suggestions on how to make the cpu more effective in the passing game? Thanks!
