Forced retirement for 99 player

[ntnme2lose]

Going into my fourth year as a QB rated 99 overall, no team would offer me a contract so I was forced to retire. Did this happen to anyone else? I'll really have to start all over again every couple of seasons or do people get picked up after that?

LOL I am sorry dude. That's a clearly broken feature.

Might have been the contract demands (which you can't control) were larger than all 32 teams cap space?

Try turning off salary cap

But you can't turn it on again if you do right?

I think it's broken. Happened to me as a coach... HofF career wanted to change teams, but no one picked me up... has never happened when fired.

Correct. Teams will resign all of their good free agents to be. I don't know how important that is when your playing as a qb.

I just started a new one. I didn't have a choice because the only option was to retire. It might have been the salary cap as someone stated.

I really didn't do anything special. I was playing on pro so I was racking up numbers even though we were losing by giving up 40-50 points every game(49ers) so I was getting a lot of XP. Upgrade the 3 accuracy attributes and you're basically guaranteed to be a 99.

i've got pass rushers and OL up to 99 within three years using just XP, no editing.

Definately easy to get a qb to 99 after 3 years. I only play 4 games a year and sim the rest and can't remember not having any decent drafted qb a 99 after 3 years if he plays.

Wow man, that really sucks. But yeah, I could certainly see someone getting to 99 ovr in 4 years without editing.

Must have your XP sliders turned way up, I drafted a monster QB and he's still only an 86 in season 3, lol

I draft based on throwing power. That is the most important thing for developing a pocket Passer or strong arm qb and is quite expensive to upgrade. If it is not at least an a- I will not draft them.
