Yes I will be. Round 1 rookies in the draft will be created and available the evening after Round 1 is over. I will only have 2-3 Create A Player slots available after that due to EA's restrictions this year. I will likely reserve those 2 CAPs for QB's taken in round 2, but I will do everything in my power to utilize UFAs in free agency and overwrite them to finish out Round 2. It's not looking good as of right now for Rounds 3 and beyond. I prefer accuracy over desperation so I'm not just going to take any player and use them to fill up rookies. I want their height and weight as accurate as possible. Date of birth/age is an issue but nothing we can do.

You can thank EA for this issue.....

I will have Round 1 done the night of Round 1 however I'm holding off until the draft is over before I finish up Round 2. Keep checking back here for further updates. Briancl18 has been helping me a lot with ratings etc. for these prospects. He's been a huge part of this rookie project.

Side Note: DL Jaye Howard was released from Chiefs and it's updated on Xbox. DL Allen Bailey has been announced as his replacement. I also adjusted the Buccaneers LB depth chart. Devante Bond has been named the team's starting strong side LB (ROLB). RE Noah Spence will back him up in sub-packages at ROLB and this has also been adjusted accordingly. MLB Jeff Knox has been added to the roster also to fill up the empty vacancy in the middle.

Today's update incudes all transactions today as they happen as well as the transactions over the last 2 days. I'm trying not to make posts for small little things as they happen so I just clump them into one.

Quote:

Today's Roster Update: 04/24/17 * RB Mike Gillislee signed to Patriots (Bills declined to match the offer) * MLB Will Comptom re-signed to Redskins * WR Taylor Gabriel re-signed to Falcons * WR Albert Wilson re-signed to Chiefs * DL Jaye Howard released from Chiefs Retirements: * OT Jake Long officially announced his retirement from the NFL Depth Chart Edits: * Jersey numbers were corrected for all QB's, RBs, WRs and TEs recently signed to new teams. Some teams still have not assigned new jersey numbers to their players, such as the Patriots, but when they're released I will get them done. * FS Jimmy Ward will still see time at Corner [49ers]. He was recently switched to starting FS by team officials, however GM Lynch mentioned today Ward will play all positions in the secondary as scenarios change throughout the game. Depth chart adjusted accordingly so Ward will see team in Quarter packages. * The New England Patriots RB depth chart is a complete mess. I have very little clue where to place RBs however here is what I have currently. RB James White is definitely the team's primary 3rd down RB and he showed what he can do in the Super Bowl at that position. Rex Burkhead has been talked up all offseason as possibly taking over as the team's primary RB however with Mike Gillislee now signed to the team it's a toss up. I don't see Dion Lewis managing to steal the position. All 3 will definitely see snaps though. Gillislee fits the mold of the team's power back and should see the same feature that Blount saw last season. Burkhead and Gillislee should form a 1-2 punch with White stealing the show on passing downs. Lewis could be the odd man out during camp.

That makes sense because 2971 is the maximum number of players that can be loaded into the PS3/360 Madden Editor.

Today's roster update will be ongoing throughout the evening. It includes all transactions from yesterday as well as today's.

Quote:

Today's Roster Update: 04/26/17 * RB Adrian Peterson signed to Saints * RG Jahri Evans signed to Packers * NT Jimmy Staten released from Falcons * RB Brandon Burks released from Jets * WR Darius Jennings released from Jets * WR Dontrelle Inman re-signed to Chargers * WR Martavis Bryant reinstated by the NFL * MLB Daryl Washington reinstated by the NFL Trades: * RB Marshawn Lynch officially traded to Raiders with draft picks invovled Depth Chart Edits: * WR Martavis Bryan promoted to #2 WR [Steelers]. With his reinstatement, he's expected to immediately assume the starting role next to Antonio Brown. Eli Rogers should continue to see time in the slot with Hunter, Coates and Heyward-Bey all competing for the #4 role. * MLB Daryl Washington moved to #3 MLB [Cardinals.] It's unknown at this time what his role will be upon his return to the league but he won't be handed the #2 job immediately. Deone Bucannon will continue to serve as the team's inside man while Washington expects to compete with Dansby, Wright and Martin for an additional role. * RB Adrian Peterson moved to #1 RB [Saints.] This move does not indicate that he's the primary back, because he isn't expected to be, however the team will have a 1-2 punch according to head coach Sean Payton and Ingram is expected to serve as the primary 3rd down specialist while also seeing sub packages as a main runner. Peterson is only expected to provide goal line and early back duties. I will immediately adjust this if necessary. * RG Jahri Evans promoted to starting RG [Packers]. Don Barclay was initially announced as the starting RG moving forward but he's been fairly horrible during the playing time he's had and the team really has had no other option after T.J. Lang left the team. Evans is expected to assume starting duties for now until the team drafts or finds a long term replacement. NFL Draft Notes: * Briancl18 and I are still finalizing last second additions to our draft project. Just a reminder: I will complete all Round 1 rookies via 'Create A Player'. I will have 2 additional CAPs remaining after that which I will dedicate more than likely to Round 2 QBs only. I will then utilize rookie free agents to finish out the remainder of Round 2 positions the best I can. I will more than likely hold off on finishing additional rookies outside of those drafted in Round 1 until the weekend so I have a clearer picture on which rookies will be playing an immediate impact for their teams.
