Depth Charts Won't Reorder Correctly

[zagski6]

I am using the roster that came out today for an offline CFM. I am using the Packers and when I looked at the depth chart I saw that Sherrod was starting and LT instead of Bulaga even though Bulaga has a better overall rating. When I tried to auto reorder nothing changed. Anyone else having this issue?

It was like this on the release day roster. Don't know why, but I had to manually put Bulaga in the lineup.

Bulaga is our Right Tackle. Bakhtiari won the spot last year after Bulaga went down (they always intended on graduating Bakhtiari to the LT and moving Bulaga to RT, but Bulaga's injury forced them to move up their timeline).

My guess, is Bakhtiari got injured in one of your games and so everyone moved up the depth chart (Barclay is grossly underrated, I don't know if this was done because of his season ending injury, but given how low his rating was last year I doubt it), so there was no way he would be the actual swing tackle with the default roster (which was the plan prior to his injury), and thus Sherrod is starting at LT.

If Bakhtiari is indeed injured then you should definitely move Bulaga to the left because you want your best covering your blindside, but you'll have to move him out of the starting position at RT first.

This may be a silly question, and I didn't want to start a whole new thread on it either. But is there any way to remove a guy off the depth chart? Say I have 5 CB's on my depth chart, and I want to remove one. Is there a way to do it so only 4 spots are taken? I'm on Xbox 1 too by the way. Thanks.

You would have to replace the #5 guy with someone else.

Ok. So basically there's no way to remove a guy, and create an empty slot?

Cut the person in that 5th spot?

I don't really see a need for you to do this. I mean even if you have only 4 roster spots the computer will just default to whoever is highest and available to play in that 5th spot (i.e. if you remove your 5th Rated CB from the depth chart, if you are ever in a package that would demand your 5th CB it would just choose the guy sitting right below the depth chart (likely your 5th rated CB, unless you have a safety that rated higher, and isn't playing safety on that particular play).

I think what the originally post meant was, even when you auto reorder, the CPU doesn't add Bulaga to the depth chart even as a backup. It's as if it ignores him completely.

Other players, regardless of IR status, they put them in the depth chart correctly.
