We saw some interesting things during this 2 hour stream:

Pros

• Progression looks great! Maybe too many good TEs, maybe could use some better OL, and it's weird how most kickers are rated in the 60's, BUT this is simply because they have low AWR--they're still very good kickers, and I wouldn't want to increase their XP, personally.
• Drafting AI seemed to be smart and have solid rosters.
• Equipment seems varied so not everyone in the future looks like they're from THE FUTURE.
• WRs, CBs, HBs, etc. all look realistic--depth, and not many guys with CRAZY speed or anything like that...just a few to make them really unique.
• The injury slider ABSOLUTELY affects simulated games, and I'd recommend something more than 50, but probably less than 70.
• When relocating a team, everything appears to be very clean on the other side. Draft will call your team by its new name, and everything in-game looks good too, including endzones, commentary, coach's attire, etc.

CONS

• Lots of dudes look like He-Man/surfers with long blonde hair on the field. At least they don't seem to be Clay Matthews clones. This can also be edited if you'd prefer.
• All of the created rookies still come in with "undisciplined" penalty traits.

Sounds great.

I'm about 24 minutes into the stream, and I've noticed a few instances of the cpu loading up at a particular position.

At 22:50 you'll see the Cardinals with three very highly rated REs. 3 of their top 6 players were REs. And again at 23:28 you'll see the Dolphins with their top 2 players being ROLBs.

When looking through the QBs, the Redskins had the three QBs they drafted in a single draft, plus multiple other teams with two closely rated QBs in the 80s.

It gives me some concern as far as the cpu roster management AI years into a cfm.

Not to mention, almost all of the highly rated QBs appeared to have 99 short accuracy rating.

I went through all 32 rosters just now 11 years into this test sim, and only 3 QBs in the entire NFL have a short accuracy rating of 99.

Good to know. Overall I thought it looked pretty good. Just a few quirks that stood out.

I'm watching the video now and I'm thinking that the OPOY's on the defensive players maybe supposed to be DROY.
