lol I'll have to start looking through the punter/kicker skills from now on. I've never had to recruit a punter/kicker before, since my 1star QB who turned out to be an 80 overall kicker has locked down both kicking positions for me.

You're right, but there's a problem with the game when most of my RBs are guys who were recruited as WRs and most of my WRs are guys who were recruited as RBs.

Re: Game generated recruits not at right position

I've noticed in Madden and NCAA, moving a linebacker to the defensive line usually provides a jump in ratings.

What I'm wondering is, do they actually play appropriately to that new rating in games? Looks sort of weird on paper when you have a 220 lb player playing DT or DE.

I dont see this nearly as much with high level recruits. Which makes sense.

Re: Game generated recruits not at right position

I think this is awesome. In real life, tons of players get moved once they get to college, especially guys that played QB in high school. It is probably unintentional, but this seems to be somewhat realistic.

True, but if what these guys are saying is accurate, it shouldn't be the majority of the time that a running back is rated better as a wr or vice versa.

It does happen a lot though- last year's Biletnikoff Award winner was a high school running back
