Maybe we can figure this one out since we're seeing different behaviors.
It's because of the design decision to only allow 640 FAs in the FA pool beyond preseason , presumably a stability based decision but I can't get an answer when I ask on Twitter

After continuing to the reg. Season prompt , FAs are sorted by age , each position having a maximum number allowed , totalling 640 ( if each position is maxed out ) , this happens in any CFM with any roster on all systems


Whether individual players are deleted , signed or retained on any given roster will depend on injuries etc and resulting team A.I decisions , if a player is cut and not signed by another team he will be deleted if hes not among the youngest 50 ( or whatever the specific limit is at his position )

The game deletes by age ( not OVR anymore ) so younger players are retained , this has been the case for I think 3 years .
Previously it worked by OVR and people didn't notice so much as the players deleted were the younger lower OVRs and not starter level players

Re: Devonta Freeman cut every time?

I ran 4 quick tests.

I started 2 franchises using "Pre Season Roster" and both times Freeman was cut in the pre-season.

I started 2 other franchises using "Use Active Roster" which I believe is the latest downloaded roster update and the Falcons did not cut Freeman.

Pre season roster may be it. I forgot to put that I used that as well.

Checked it out and he does stay on the Falcons roster for me if I go "active roster" instead of "pre season roster."

IDK why it would be so, but this does seem to be the difference.

Freeman got cut in mine, PS4, 1.04 Cloud, preseason roster. He completely disappeared, didn't make FA. I'm guessing he gets cut with preseason rosters having more to cut down?
