will the flex point value of QBs, WRs, and HBs ever be adjusted?
I'd guess no.

Statements pertain to Borts response on page 3 about shortened player building process and extended player plateau
I just don't understand how you came up with that conclusion. A quicker build process coupled with a longer plateau would yield a short term high level player? The whole purpose of people proposing this is to have high level players for a longer period of time. If the player building time was cut in half and replaced with plateau you would have from seasons 6-12 of peak performance as opposed to seasons 9-12 as it currently stands. That's a difference of three months.
Also, quickening the build process will greatly help attract and retain new player bases. Even if they mess up on their initial run, they can restart, rebuild in a fast paced few months instead of a long drawn out 8-9 months to finally say "Hey, I've got a real player now".
As for league structure issues you can completely separate Minors from the Pros (BBB and up). Then make it an option to own a minor league team and a professional team. Aside from the extra revenue this creates, it creates a feeling of graduation for players, and then you won't have to touch the BBB-Pro leagues at all and just change the minors from being separated by a difference of 4 levels to around 8 levels, which makes it easier to recruit players since you have more of a selection for each level.
I feel I can't properly answer right now. I have not done a lot of thinking on it, as my focus has been elsewhere. Catch and I will discuss it, and if we think it warrants investigation we will let everyone know.

Will you guys be redoing Causal leagues again and getting rid of the uncapped.
When there is enough teams to get rid of uncapped and make AA, yes.

I have a couple of questions;
2. On the replays is there come way to distinguish CB1, CB2, WR1, WR2 instead of them all saying CB or WR, could you use C1, C2, W1, W2

What is more important? Contribution to team or overall stats leader?

I like the idea you have for SSB teams...makes me very happy.
With the way the current mentor is will it stack with Heart of a Champion for the playoffs increasing its benefit?
Yes, they work together.

It's working like it's supposed to. It's supposed to be harder to come by the best stuff for your position.
I understand I am not asking for the BEST stuff , just asking for stuff that works for my position

Does First Step work for all positions? I dumped 2 pieces on my TE as it didn't seem to do anything for me.

I have some questions about pass deflection mechanics in double coverage. There seems to be a bonus for double teaming as was indirectly mentioned in the change log recently.
Is "a bonus to PD rolls" a correct way to charchterize all the "extra" benefits of double teaming ("extra" meaning not directly observable or behind the scenes)?
Does the bonus depend at all on who the other player is?
Is it possible for two players to make a play on the ball but no bonus applied? Is it possible for only one player to make a play on the ball and the bonus be applied?
If one player makes a deflection, does this make it easier for the next player to make a deflection (assuming distance to the ball is constant)?

How does pass distance aeq work?
Is there a max distance a qb can throw that is increased by the aeq?
or
Does it increase the distance a qb can throw before pass quality starts to degrade?

Get on a team. You don't have training facilities at home. This should encourage some of those wishy-washy agents to make up their mind a bit quicker too.
Is something still being planned for CPU teams to offer contracts to players above level 7? Otherwise, not being able to train will pretty much end the life of many of the mediocre builds, or less needed position players, out there.

Any chance of the team-centered marketplace and the ability to place player ads while still under contract?

EDIT: sorry, I typed that before I saw that it was locked! You don't have to answer that one, to be fair.
You can already place an ad while under contract. Team centered one will get done at some point.
