A hope? A chance.

So? he is still a FA.

That would only affect his OVR Rating. Not weather he his in the game or not.

Ochocino is a 36 year old WR who hasn't played since 2011 and hasn't had a significant season since 2010. There are hundreds of former players still in pursuit of an NFL job. It sucks when a player you really like isn't in the game but there has to be a cutoff somewhere. You can always use create a player to recreate them if these players mean that much to you.

This is true and I agree and disagree..my thing is we all now know the photos of most players are still on disk..and we know now that these new systems have huge power and memory..so why not have a larger pool of FA..can't hurt no?

The union is there to protect it's players but they are also given the duty of giving out royalty checks as they are the one's that get paid by EA. I did a little research on it, former players actually have to join the PA as a "former player." They continue to get pension and coverage regardless of if they join this union or not. Either way, since he's had some tryouts, it's safe to assume he is still part of the PA.

The difference could be whether a player has filed his retirement papers or not. Whether they are officially retired. If Benson hasn't officially retired he would still be considered and active NFL player who is looking for a roster spot. So I would agree with you that Benson wouldn't cost more while a Jerry Rice (officially retired player) would cost more.

Sure he is and there are probably over 1000 guys that are technically free agents including rookies who played a game and got cut and former veterans who never officially retired. I would love to see a bigger free agent pool and maybe resurrect the career of a Tim Tebow (who I am not a fan of IRL). Apparently EA had a cutoff for a set number of free agents.

He was on there, I think he was rated at a 79 OVR

but why takes these popular players out for players rated in their 50s that wont be signed in real life or in the game? this is a video game after all you would think theres more appeal to adding tebow on your roster than a 50 rated qb? (tebow should be rated 50 lol jk) but idc really for it just want to know the logic for excluding more popular players in FA for ones that would rarely be used.

Why can't they just release the ratings of the free agents like they did for the other 32 teams?
