Progression system similar to The Show's, or at least NBA 2k.

Hate the XP based system. I want JeMarcus Russell's and Ryan Leaf's. I want bust that you scout and fall in love with only to be disappointed. With the XP system you can take any player with the physical tools and make him an all-time great. Players that are dumb as rocks and have no technical skills can become elite at their positions after a year of practices.

See that 60 ovr 6'2'' 98 spd corner? Sure he has no ability to cover and plays like a blind bat, but year and a half later he'll be a top flight corner without ever playing a down in an NFL game. Guess his first 3 years in the NFL didn't mean anything, but 2 years on my practice squad has changed his life for good.

2nd option would be revamped scouting system. Grades are OK, A/B/C/etc., but leave that to my scouts. Let me hire scouts and let them do the work for me. Look at NBA 2k's system here. Scouts give feedback on players, give me comparison's to other NBA players, and give me a rough estimate of their ability (depending on level of scout).

Wait, NFL HC09 had this, so.... it's there EA, added it in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !
