how deep do the player attributes go, like can you actually scout and develop rookies over multiple seasons or is it more of a set it and forget it simulation?
How does the draft system work for player attributes, is it purely random or can you actually pick specific players with set stats? Also curious if there's any depth to the simulation or if it's basically just watching scores tick by.
A trade deadline mode where you can actually swap players with other AI-controlled teams would add a ton of replay value. Right now once you draft your squad you kind of just sim to the end, but mid-season moves would make every decision feel more meaningful.
Would love to see a deeper scouting combine minigame before the draft, like a short combine where you evaluate combine stats then watch pro day results. Adds stakes to draft night and gives something to grind between seasons.
