My only issue with this is that prior to the first regular season game, there may be as many as 224 players cut on one day. I wouldn't want an alert for all of these.

At the most I would want a new forum thread called "Recent Cuts" or something, not a new post in the general thread.

However, if these alerts were forum posts, I don't see how they would be much different than the transaction log that is currently available (and actually not as good because there would be many posts, instead of one list).

Feel free to correct me if I'm not remembering exactly what your idea was if it differs from anything I've said.


i think this is the idea he is referring to = https://mfn6.myfootballnow.com/community/thread/5/2169?page=1#14143

Yup .. see punisher I knew even then you'd find it ... Lol.

To clarify basically you'd just set a slider saying if a QB you'd rate 75+ came available, you would get an alert/notification. If I release QB John Smith at a 50/65 rating, you wouldn't get alerted. That way you are not inundated with emails.

I'd even add an option to turn it off if desired (or set every position to a 100 ... Lol)

Seems like players should be livid only if they are not playing enough or being paid enough, or both. Otherwise, they should just be satisfied...

If they won't resign for a couple of sims, I get that.


I'm with these guys on this one. A cut OR trade should not necessarily lead to a livid player. If it must stay that way, it should at least soften after a season or so. Perhaps, after every sim (season) a players' "opinion of you" should have a re-assessment. If they are no longer with your team, perhaps their opinion drops/raises one level (whichever is an improvement).
Maybe even consider an outrageous contract as a means to alleviate anger from a player....

The feeling does soften over time.

The part that seems rather unrealistic about this feature to me is the guy that goes unsigned and still refuses to sign with your team right before training camp or something. Nobody is going to turn down a paycheck at that point just because you cut them before or traded them.

FWIW .. going through players and a guy I traded in 2022 LFA week 1 is still livid at me ..

PS: it's now 2023 draft day.

Here's something I don't understand....

A RB with a 63/65 default rating, lead a league with over 2,000 yards rushing.

It's unrealistic that an average back would dominate over all the 85+ guys.

Shouldn't higher rated players perform better over time? Otherwise, what's the point of any rating at all?

You might have to wait a few more virtual months. I had a guy....it's been 2 years (virtual of course) and he still livid..I have him as a 67 rated QB. Boy ! I must have pissed him off!
