hmm ...we dunno the circumstances of this, so not easy to have an informed opinion ...but imo if a team drops a player(s) without trying to communicate with him about the situation, then that is poor team management to say the least ...I wouldn't suspect them to have a good list of agents, if that is how they go about their business ...I don't have to worry about any of those things, coz I own my own players, so it is easy for me to be a prick on the forums, etc
...but if I did have agents to tend to in my team dealings, then I know that I would give them every opportunity to play a part in my team's success, and I would ensure that they got equal PT ...but they would have to comply with some requests within reason also ...If I asked them to change their pass coverage settings, and they didn't respond for half a season about that, then I wouldn't have any regrets about dropping them from my team ...if they were innactive for more than a few games, without informing me about this beforehand, then I wouldn't have any regrets about dropping them ...if they had closed builds, and wouldn't respond to my questions and queries, then I wouldn't have any regrets about dropping them.
