Does anyone know if you can change your gameplan for a team. Like will the saints always be a vertical passing team or over time will they change into a running team? I just don't like being pigeon holed into a set system.

yes but it's useless because you still can only play against the CPU in offline games no matter what team you have

The difficulty they are going to have with importing draft classes is all the new player types they've added. I'm no programmer, but I could imagine that would cause all sorts of issues since, for instance, a linebacker isn't just a linebacker anymore... there are five different types of linebackers now and fitting every one into their right category could get messy.

However, if they find a way to make the import smooth, they should give us the option to edit the draft classes after import. That way we can make adjustments to ratings so the draft plays out somewhat realistically (no 1st round punters!), since transferring players from NCAA to Madden seems to do funny stuff to their ratings.

I use to spend a lot of time adjusting sliders for my sports games, but the last couple years, I've made a few tweaks and just rolled with it. This mode makes me want to do everything that I can to maximize the authenticity of the gameplay experience so that every move in CC has meaning.

Maybe I can get your thoughts on this, as a Rams fan:

But a new regime just came in and drafted Isiah Pead in the 2nd round for the future, and he's about the exact opposite of a Power RB. So does that mean that STL values their own 2nd round pick at RB lower than they "should"?

As a coach, you can have whatever gameplan you want.

is it confimred on the manual anywhere that a human cant play a human game in CCM offline? look at NCAA at least you could play any game human vs Human and control your own team

Not necessarily. A huge amount of people here prefer 32-team control just so they can make sure the AI teams are managing their rosters in a realistic, intelligent, competitive way. So this workaround is still go for that.
