Is there any way of getting the CPU to release him, I wonder, so Reaper can get his man? As Commissioner can you take control of the Chiefs to release him before swapping back to the Rams? Or is there any other way around it?

I'm guessing we can't move on to preseason week 2 until everyone has picked anyway as the CPU will hoover up all the good FA's if we advance first?

Possibly,I'll check tomorrow.

Not sure,there might be two seperate "cpu fill roster" options for rosters below minimums,one for human teams,one for cpu teams,the human option is defo set to off but the cpu one might still set to on,again I'll double check.

Mikeyt086

Sorry for the hold up, thanks for the list Paully.

I'll take WR Wes Welker, need a slot receiver and think his head shouldn't be mush in the game.

PerrinV2

Don't see a way I can take the Chiefs,only other way I think would be if some1 has a second profile to take over the Chiefs and release him.

And there's only 1 fill roster option and its off,and even with it off the CPU Raiders picked up 2 players for my pre season game versus them.

Knex*

I've a second profile that I might be able to use. I'll check when home. There is bound to be more players snapped up by CPU, however.

Any CPU team that had a pre season game will have taken some I'd say but I don't think anyone good was taken apart from De La Puente and Phil Taylor.

If you do have a 2nd profile,the password is brds and also I have a few of those 1/2 days xbox live trials should you need them.

I'll skip my pick. I'm over in England for the weekend for the rugby and won't be back until tomorrow evening. Theres no point in holding things up for everybody and I have enough depth all round anyway.

With the league restarting Free agents will have to be chosen again,in the interest of starting the league asap I will be asking that people pm on the players they want(and the order they want them,1.player 1 2.player 2 etc).

perrin say if I needed a player at say qb and I put down Tebow but rock takes him, would be ok to say a second option if Tebow is gone I'll take josh Freeman then,?

Well what I would do is do a list like
Player 1:Tebow
Player 2 :Freeman
Player 3:Brady Quinn

So if player 1 is gone,you'd get player 2 and if he's gone you'd get player 3 etc etc

Put down a few players to cover yourself.

Away from the Xbox for much of today, but someone fire me a PM when it's my pick and I'll jump and take someone. Cheers.

A new thread for new changes should be used I think, I only understand now that this round we are just PM picks, very confusing for me I think using old thread

I know,you're right,felt like I was almost spamming the forum creating new threads all the time.
I need to start using some of these mod tools and merging threads and clearing some stuff up.
