I'm talking about outside franchise mode bud. This causes all sorts of roster issues. I will be starting a franchise here soon so I guess that will be the only way to go about fixing this. I just wished SCEA would allow a little bit more roster freedom outside franchise mode so we wouldn't have these type of roster issues. Thanks!

It's doable.. U just have to work at it.. I agree they are not very user friendly when it comes to moving players

Reading how awesome you guys say these are is making me want to restart my franchise once they're released.

In order to do 2 for 1 trades etc, you need to have a pool of extras in your roster (FAs and or CAPs) that can be added to replace the 2nd player lost. You also need a fringy guy that probably won't see any action or, even better, a corresponding release of a player to help even out the team getting 2 for 1.

I hate posts like these but I have to ask because I've seen people butchering him in the game recently. What does it look like McCutchen's overall will be for V3?

They've said time after time that you can't look at the overall to get an idea of the player's skills. Individual ratings are far more important, especially when looking at the CF position where speed and defense are so highly weighted when configuring overall. I know it's difficult to completely disregard overall ratings, but it makes sense in this situation.

I'm not looking at the overall to determine his skill. I'm not going to ask for every single individual skill. Looking at his overall I can gather where his attributes most likely are.

I make rosters, I'm a roster editor. I know overall means little.

But if someone tells me an overall, I can gather whether or not they fixed other roster editor's **** ups such as taking all attributes relating to Andrew McCutchen's base running ability and making them 45 or lower.
