no i just created a team then released all my computer generated players and built a team of nothing but true free agents, didnt mess with any of the teams to get players, it was fun cuz my guys werent the best, sounds wierd but it provided me with a nice challenge, then from there each season i tweaked and added FA's. im not a big fan of the computer generated rookies so i just released them all and signed FA's. try it out its pretty fun!
