What did they add to the Franchise Mode?

What can we look forward to? I know they added Tony Bruno and weekly newspapers, but what about the meat of the Franchise mode? Transition Tags? Franchise Tags? Front-loaded Contracts?

Restricted Free Agents - Allow your young guys to test Restricted Free Agency.
Preseason Position Battles - Let two players who are similar in talent battle it out for the starting job.
Player Personalities - Players react to everything that happens to them and if things get really bad for them, they demand a trade. If you're not throwing the ball to your star receiver, you'll hear about it.
Franchise Tags - Tag players who refuse to re-sign with your team.
New Realistic Off-season Free Agency - Players no longer only care about money. They now look at your team, the players you have, your team prestige and lots of other factors.
Weekly Gameplan - Your coordinators provide you with a gameplan each week that contains keys to stop your upcoming opponents.
NFL Icons - We've acknowledged the stars in the NFL and they become Icons in your Franchise. These players influence free agents and affect morale if something happens to them.
Practice in Franchise - You can now practice with your current franchise team.
Improved Team Management - Teams intelligently manage their rosters now. They cut dead weight and sign regular season free agents.
Name Team Captains - You can now name your team captains every year in Franchise.
Rivalries - Rivalries are a new addition to Franchise this year.
Team Prestige - A new aspect of Franchise is prestige. Turn a perennial loser around to become a true powerhouse.
In-Season Player Progression - Players now progress based on how well they're doing during the season. Breakout players are rewarded for their performance.
Improved Draft - A ticker, announcer and trading during the draft highlight our draft improvements.
Change Player Positions - You can change the positions of players in Franchise every season now.

The weather is quite hot actually. I'm about 4500 miles from the US so, the news travels very differently. Also, when it's 3-11 AM US time, news travels much slower.

Thanks for the help. I just wanted to make sure about a couple of things.

Cheers.
