Position changes

Why has the position change feature been taken off the connected franchise mode (offline in particular)?

I can't move a LOLB to MLB... only to ROLB.

Nor can I move a LB to DE

Why? These things happen all the time in the NFL.

The worst part is that the CPU apparently has the ability to do it. I have seen one of the news feeds pop up as one player being moved to better fit a new scheme or something like that.

you can change positions, you have to wait till the offseason. Particularly after the draft, u can change draftee positions as well...

Where do you do this? Is it in the roster section?

Yep, edit the player on the roster screen in the offseason, it's still a bit restricted (you can't move SS's to DE's or OLB's etc.) but it does open up a BIT more in the offseason.

It does work in the off season but the rating adjustments are terrible.

I run a 3-4 and drafted a cover 2 OLB thinking I could move him to ILB. When I moved him his tackling rating dropped 20 points.

Why I have no idea. But he was an 80 ovr outside, then a 60 something inside
