Well, I do think that something will eventually have to be done. I would be happy with strength being adjusted (amped up more with weight) to be more realistic, which is what Ray is looking for I think. I personally would endorse a position change freeze, but I think I'm in the minority.
I checked out Henry Fortune, the player that is #2 in the 75 in sacks, 21 sacks in 9 games. He's 210 pounds, and wasn't drafted. He's on a 4 yr deal that pay under 400k a year. I don't know what he was when he got picked up, but he's a killer rush end now! I admire the owner for figuring it out and picking him up, but the whole thing is kind of making a mockery of things, isn't it? And now that we know it works, guys are going to start copycatting this. It's the next big trend... WR's to DE's!

There are many ways to skin a cat, and same as approaching this subject. There is a reason JDB has not done this simple fix yet. I do not know why but what i do know is if you amp up strength with size i already know of a way to exploit it.
This is not a question of the direct effect, but the unwanted side effect from weight making guys stronger.
In mfn 1 i could make all my guys smaller and take roll tides " rich get richer" trade, but i truely think it would hurt my team. That is not a broken game, but i game alot here and really feel this suggestion was implemented it would drive me out the door.
I put a bid on Fortune. He had value thats it. I want the future changes to be at a level of a complete game. As a suggestion, going in this direction would not fix what i feel is the root cause.
I would not change a thing before going this route. These allocations cannot be used as solid examples. The talent of players is garbage compared to MFN 1 . Fortune and that other garbage DT would be back in FA in 1 . The new code was tested there and forums were pretty quiet, besides me of course.
I have been on this for almost two real years. Very quite at times, but if somethings going to happen i want my opinion heard. I welcome others but swaying my stance is impossible.
