Until the passing game is fixed to accommodate for the minimal Skill Points that a low-level QB can invest (let alone the well-rounded builds it takes to be successful with passes to targets other than the TE and HB), the Pee Wee and Minor leagues (under the 26 cap) are a waste of gameplanning effort.

I like that the passing game is worthless at the lower levels. It reminds me of a real pee wee game, or lower ages football game. There isn't much passing, and if you do pass a lot, then you will lose. The older the players get, the better they are able to pass. It makes sense to me.

True... and I don't mind it really, because I hadn't spent any time down in the Pee Wees until Season 12 (and now this season here, and over with the Bonn farm club), but this is a game with real people spending real money, and understandably, most want their creations to play like Larry Fitzgerald, or they'll whine about the gameplan like TO.

Losing three seasons with an under-utilized WR isn't conducive to wanting to stick around with a club that's building from the ground up (without a network of established agents)... which makes the newb owners open up the passing game so they can make the agents happy... and lose big... and end up losing their rosters anyway due to lack of team success.

... not making a point, really, just griping... I can understand why the new owners fuss about the Pee Wees. If they don't know what they're getting into then it's a waste of money.

I understand that WR agents would feel like it's a waste of time. And it is for them, for a while. Those WR agents who stick around and build a quality player will become super valuable later in AAA+ levels. I'm expecting to lose some WR's on my Cap 22 team because of a lack of involvement. A decision to win vs. make an agent happy is not a decision at all. Personally, I would rather have win first agents with average builds as opposed to prima donna agents with superior builds.
