still bad that its been almost a month since season ended and yet these rosters are still in correct.


Browns RELEASED FB Ray Agnew..... yet he's still on the roster, TE Ryan Taylor was released before season ended as well yet again he's still on the roster..... FS Jim Leonard RETIRED after the last game of season YET again he's still on the roster.


DE John Hughes is a RDE yet on the roster hes a LDE, ROLB Scott Solomon is RDE yet again donny has him listed as a LB.


MLB Zac Diles isent on the team anymore... yet again still on the roster.


MLB Darius Eubanks is a SS yet donny has him at wrong postion.


CB Isaiah Trufant isent on team anymore.


RT Michael Bowie is a LT.


Donny says he uses Ourlads as his Go to Roster depth chart site but yet i just listed 9 things wrong that are correct on that site.... and thats just 1 team out of 32.

Well regarding players cut or retired after the end of the season...I'm assuming that they're leaving it at end-of-year-rosters, because that's the 2014 season roster.

In terms of other stuff, I think it's done in part for balancing. Jason Pierre-Paul has always lined up against the LT for the Giants but is more built to be on the other side, which is where he plays in Madden. Damontre Moore was not a starter at all this year, but an earlier version of the roster benched Kiwanuka and put him playing out of position (now, Wynn has that spot, and Moore is JPP's backup). When Schwartz was playing, he was lined up at RG, despite the fact that he only played RT this year because when he played Justin Pugh was hurt. I could go on and on, but if I were to guess, as I said, most changes were probably for balancing.
