Its not that important for gameplay since they wear helmets, but most people play this game for the fun of building dynasties and recruiting. People spend a lot of time in the menus recruiting players or messing with their depth charts (where a headshot of the player is prominently displayed) and yet every team has several "identical twins". In the same way the game can auto-generate literally thousands upon thousands of height/weight/body type combinations, they should do the same with faces. It would make the game feel a lot more realistic if your players all looked like unique individuals. Over time you would recognize your players (as well as star players throughout the country) by their faces. It would create a much better story element as you play out the years. You would remember your star players long after they left. It just seems to me that generating thousands of unique player faces is not that difficult and would add HUGE amounts of additional realism.

What bothers me more than the lack of faces is how a certain height/weight combination can only have seven face choices... I don't want an offensive lineman who doesn't weigh 300 pounds to have a sunken, skinny face... I have to make him heavier so I can give him a fatter looking face. Make all faces available for all height and weight numbers. This was asked for last year...
