How do you play your franchise?

[niftyjets]

Do you make the moves you want to make and dont worry about real life. Or do you try and keep it as realisitic as possible?

thanks

I am playing single player offline. I try to keep it realistic but it basically is it's own world since the CPU makes lots of roster moves. I just try to have fun with it for what it is. I have 2 separate ones going, one with the Broncos and one with the Giants/or Eagles (have not decided which to officially use for the second team yet)

I try and keep it as realistic as possible. I keep it real simple. I take whatever players are on the team I have chosen and I try to develop them. I know people that trade away all their big names and marquee players for draft picks and chase all the big names in free agency right from the start! I take a more conservative approach. I only trade when the need arises, and I only go after superstars in free agency if the upcoming draft seems weak at a position I desperately need to fill.

I depart from reality the moment I begin a franchise. I want my universe to take its own path. Makes t easy too - roster updates are meaningless to me!

I let it be my own world. Now with that said, I try to be realistic as well. I don't try to make unrealistic trades etc...

This. I almost never initiate trades but will entertain a good offer from the CPU. I don't try to make it emulate real life. If that was the case I'd not start my CFM until the final roster update of the cycle which ain't happening. Lol

Turn off salary cap, abuse the FA list to give the most depth to my team that I can. Don't really care about they draft so I always trade down with my picks.

It depends. I usually don't make many moves at all the first year. But sometimes I'll start with my Cowboys and trade for Johnny bc at this point he's got little to no trade value in the game. Little things like that.
