    The SFA is for the Council Bluff Criminals in Patriots1. At the end of the season are starting Hunter Henry at TE1 and Christian Kirk at WR1. That is it. Darnell Mooney was the only other player to contribute significant receiving yardage on that team. “Free agent” is playing at WR 2-5, TE 2-3, FB, and HB3. Not unreasonable to think that 8 scrubs getting a lot of playing time couldn’t combine for 850 yds.

    Those 8 scrubs weren't playing every game, WR2 was Darnell Mooney for at least half the season. How many of those targets do you really expect went to the FB, TE2, TE3, WR4, or WR5? The majority of the time the team ran base and 3WR sets which means that the majority of the time there was only 1 SFA on the field. Even if they had 5 SFA on the field at all times it wouldn't make sense that they performed more efficiently as a group than a top 3-5 wideout. Not unreasonable to expect my top wideout to perform like a top wideout and not like a bunch of scrubs. Drops are entirely on the WR correct? So what would cause a WR who had double digit TD's and single digit drops in reality to have single digit TD's and double digit drops in your SIM? I mean seriously, what would cause a player to have 600 less yards, half the TD's, and double the drops?

    The problem (IMO) is that some teams who are on auto-pilot end up with SFA playing while named players are on the bench and never used. Can you program so that depth chart players are sutomatically used before SFA's on those teams not checking theit lineups regularly?
