I brought in my FS for the Marvins, but we actually turned away a few guys in a similar level range (26-29). Entering the offseason we knew we would need a center so I got on the ball early and started pestering a few guys about their centers. By the time they were ready to choose I had three centers (level 25-30) who wanted to commit to our team, but at that same time we had a previous associate of Crix and I bring his center over so I had to turn all three of those guys away.

I think the key to recruiting is to watch throughout the season and to jump on those guys who post adds early, they have the oppurtunity to actually look through the teams and deliberate instead of making a rash decision because they are swamped with PM's and have no possible chance of reading them all on the first day off the offseason.

Of course... now Bort is getting rid of the Players Looking for Teams forum to force us to use the marketplace. I believe I read that someone can post 5 days before their contract expires, this will certainly change the dynamics of recruiting.

Ahh, haha

The two expansion teams im on both filled out quickly, and all ive seen on the forums is people bitching because no one will sign their players below level 10. Try harder

not many people want to make safeties because they don't produce outstanding stats in any 1 area

well, I was put in charge of building an offense which I already got an extra day late start on and with the exception of WR, filled it in a day. I was able to land 5 WRs soon enough, but then I decided to do the defense because the guy recruiting for the defense was all but useless (in fact I'm fairly certain he didn't sign a single guy). So I got about a 3 day late start on the defense, and most of the top talent had dried up, especially at safety. Rest assured, it wasn't from lack of trying or lack of skill, that cause difficulty recruiting at that point. That said, I've all but filled the roster (still have like 4 spots, but can be filled with level 7s if I need to.)
