* OLB/EDGE Andre Branch released from the Cardinals
* OLB/EDGE Jeff Holland released from the Cardinals
* SS T.J. McDonald released from the Dolphins
* SS Josh Jones released from the Packers
* LS Andrew DePaola released from the Raiders
Retirements:
* QB Andrew Luck [Colts] & LB Paul Worrilow [Ravens/Eagles] announced their retirements from the NFL. They've both been removed from the roster and placed in the Retired list. I intentionally left Andrew Luck's name intact with a 12 OVR JUST IN CASE a user would like to use him with the pre-recorded audio provided by EA.
** Trades: **
* SS Rudy Ford [Cardinals] traded to the Philadelphia Eagles for DT Bruce Hector
UDFAs:
* The following UDFAs have been added to the roster: NT Anthony Rush [Raiders], RB D'Ernest Johnson [Browns], WR Darrius Shepherd [Packers], WR Damion Willis [Bengals] & QB Manny Wilkins [Packers]. If there are anymore UDFAs likely to crack the 53-man roster that is missing from the roster let me know and I'll get them added A.S.A.P.
Depth Chart & Misc. Edits:
* The following players have been placed on season-ending I.R. and removed from the depth chart: RB Doug Martin [Raiders], RB Lamar Miller [Texans], WR Hakeem Butler [Cardinals], OLB Brandon King [Patriots], OLB Josh Carraway [Rams], S Josh Shaw [Cardinals], SS Derwin James [Chargers]
* WR Josh Gordon has been placed back in the starting lineup [Patriots]. EA had him on official I.R. with this base roster, however you can turn off pre-existing injuries prior to loading in CFM or Play Now modes. My roster is from EA's original base update, so there are minimal players effected by removing the I.R. status.
* Bengals offensive line was updated. The team announced Michael Jordan [LG] and Trey Hopkins [center] would be the opening season starters along with the already updated line. There were some minor ratings adjustments done here as well based off of pre-season play and starting lineup.
* WR Michael Crabtree and QB Josh McCown were created/added to the roster. Their ratings are copied over from the official M20 ratings with a couple very minor variations. Crabtree and Kirk should see outside action with Fitzgerald working out of the slot assuming training camp indications remain. Josh McCown was boosted some - anybody who agrees with EA's official rating along with how he performed in pre-season....you get my point...
* Equipment edits continue, and several players were updated after Games 2 and 3 of pre-season. Most recently, and off the top of my head, players such as: RB Le'Veon Bell, TE Jason Witten, WR Michael Gallup, RB Dalvin Cook, K Eddy Pineiro, RB Buddy Howell, RB Damarea Crockett, QB Trace McSorley, DE Josh Allen, RB Mark Walton, WR Emmanuel Sanders, and many many more were all updated. |

I did a test run of the roster in CFM today and everything ran smoothly. As always, and this is inevitable, you still have to make some minor depth chart corrections (thanks to EA's odd import settings to CFM). A couple retired players, such as Mark Sanchez and a few others also pop up in free agency even though they've been removed from my roster (once again, due to EA's odd import settings). I've enjoyed it so far though. A few late round rookies and UDFAs get cut during sims...so that part may be an issue if you choose to only control 1 team.
That's it for now. Let me know if you have any requests or catch any mistakes. I'll get to it whenever I have time. This is my last month of freedom, because next month starts promotional testing at my work and I start up my 2nd job as well.
I'm giving you all that I can while I can. My time will be less and less as we move forward this year. Take care.
