Playing Style, and Pro Potential

I need to get a rating increase in both areas.

I'm using a CPB i've titled Pro Spread, it's based off of the NE spread playbook, and also incorporates a bunch of Ace from the Pro Style playbook.

Right now my Pro Potential is C+ and my Playing Style is a D-. Trying to get a Pocket Passer for my system, but thinking these 2 values might hurt me with a current recruit.

Is there an immediate remedy to change my low ratings?

You can't quickly upgrade pro potential as it's based on where your players go in the draft, but if you want to upgrade playing style then pass a lot.

ok. i thought maybe something in coach philosophy might bump one of them to more favorable.

no.. not really.. just adopt a Air Raid playbook like SMU and go crazy.. the playing style will get up in no time. Have you tried checking athlete recruits? Some of them end up being pretty good quarterbacks and are mostly under the radar

that's a good point, i generally stay away from ATH's, but definitely worth a shot with the new system.

Its all tied to attributes, which makes me so happy. Using Army, I've been recruiting run blocking tackles andy play style is an A+ for them. Same with blocking tight ends.

When I recruit receiving TEs though the play style is C+ because I rarely throw.

Re: Playing Style, and Pro Potential

Why does passing show weekly stats and receiving show stats for the season? Seems odd or an oversight.

Go after the athletes in this game, they come in rated higher than other recruits.
