Controlling every team in Franchise...how to stop?

[Deutscher]

Hey everyone, today I had the idea to do a fantasy draft and select every team as user controlled so that I could get my drafted team to look like my Fantasy Baseball team (ESPN if anyone is curious).

Anyways, now I have control of every team (but not the CPU ROSTER CONTROL option from the franchise setup menu).

A couple questions for those more experienced players...

1) Will this mess anything up/make anything more complicated? I'd still like to let the CPU trade, etc but I'm thinking I can't do that now...

2) Can I change who controls the teams? (Users vs CPU) and if so, where do I change that?

Thanks so much!

Also, when I simulate, I get notifications from every team.

If there was another way to have CPU teams but still control the draft is be very happy to know how.

Thanks again.

I THINK, if you made a different setting file and set it all to auto, then assigned that file to every other team you didnt exactly want to control so you could just focus on your fantasy team, the organization would make trades for the other user controlled teams cuz you have it set to auto for those teams in those settings, but you still control every team so youre going to continue getting notifications.

Would anybody know if there is a different way to achieve what I want without controlling every team? I guess I could CPU ROSTER CONTROL ON, then trade for the team. But then at that point would the CPU make more trades during the season?

Do what primtime said.
Different profile, everything on Auto.
They are basically a CPU team at that point.

First, thanks for the replies! This is helping.

However, I cannot figure out how to change the different profile for individual teams.


When I go to settings and make changes from Manual to Auto (for Trade for example), it changes it for all teams...Is there something I'm missing?

You need 2 profiles.
One will be the one for your team.
The other one...with everything set to AUTO will be for the other 29.
Go to USER SETTINGS....and give Profile 2 to the teams you want to be CPU.
Make YOUR profile the default profile.

So, alter the settings, save that under something else, assign that to all other teams? I think I got it now, I'll have to try it when I get home!


thanks!
