Is there any way to start a franchise mode and change the settings so that no free agent pickups or injuries in the pre-season occur? I want to start a season with the new roster disk and avoid the AI making pre-season FA moves. I basically just want to move right to Week 1 with this new roster disk with any changes to the rosters.

Thanks in advance.

You could control all 32 teams and just sim the games you don't want to play. I don't think you can turn off F.A. moves.

I don't know about the rest of you guys, but EA screwed the Cowboys roster up pretty good with this one. They have moved Richie Anderson to 2nd string halfback and removed him as a fullback alltogether. They moved Julius Jones to 3rd string halfback and moved Reshard Lee who is the third string halfback to 1st string fullback. Parcells has said he intends to give Anderson some carries at halfback, but does that warrant a position change from EA?

And why Julius Jones to third string? There's a lot of talk that he still might start or at least see most of the carries.

None of this is a big deal, but I just hate having to make all these changes before every online game.
