I'd also like for you to only be able to switch your scheme in the free agency/draft/preseason portion. Teams are aren't making wholesale changes to the offense/defense week to week - they're taking what they are into games. I can already see CFM players changing their scheme simply so that more fit it and leaving it for a few weeks to XP farm then switching back. I want rookies to have a chance at losing their Dev trait for not fitting into the scheme. This would make players draft differently or change their scheme entirely to match a new player (Redskins RG3). This would force teams to either draft to their committed scheme or suffer the potential consequences. Some players should be exempt from this that are say Star Dev and above as they're talented enough to thrive in any scheme. I'd also like to see a player have a higher chance of losing their Dev trait if they're not a scheme fit. These may all be in the game I'm not sure but if they're not I'd certainly like to see them.

I am ok with being able to switch mid season because injuries sometimes require it. Pocket passer gets hurt and backup is a scrambler. Good coaches change schemes to fit the personel.

I would just like the playbook options be dictated by scheme choice to add real value and repercussions to your choice.

Better yet, i would like the whole playbook available and your scheme be chosen for you based on your play calls. The game should maintain a running tally of your play calls the last 3 games to derive your offensive and defensive scheme. I chose 3 games so that you would not be locked into one scheme too long if you actually pivot for some reason i.e. injuries. One game is too short because then the scheme may be changing each week when in reality you may have a 1 game change in philosophy due to opposing team weaknesses.
