this is very specific and not a general discussion on cpu players (they suck). looking for people have actually tried it out or something similar. it has no bearing on the league but i'd like to be able to play some competitive scrims and have a small chance to at least win 1 tourny game.
age group: 160 day (nat minors)
so the FA market is now picked clean. while I have day 160 starters, at appropriate levels, I'm debating on which would be better for some back up playing time: a cpu player, or a day 120 level 42. obviously, players with ELs under 42 are just out of the question, and if the EL was 50ish, they could hold their own as backups. but what about those whose ELs are at 42 or just over. Do they have any value at all? I'm using some 42s on ST and they seem to be horrible and I love their builds as level 42s. I'll be keeping the number of CPUs under 9 so they'll have the minimal cpu penalty.
last season, our mutt team was pretty evenly split between day 120s and 80s, and the 80s and cpus really seemed to be outplayed by opposing CPUs. so this season, we split them as much as possible by age into 2 teams. so i'm leaning towards using cpu players, but just wondering if any one has had any relevant experience with this scenario. the exception seems to be punters and kickers with the cpus definitely being better until reg pro, or maybe semi pro.
