Getting sick and tired of seeing a safety show up at CB5 when I have CB5 with multiple CBs in the depth chart.

Change the rotation so that it uses the last player in the depth chart regardless of its energy rather than grabbing from the roster.

are the CB listed already on the field at CB1-4 positions when the safety gets pulled in?

This usually happens because you dont have the CB depth chart spot filled in (not just the CB1-CB4 spots). Filling that with all CBs has always cleared that issue for me.

But CB5 spot has other issues as well (possibly related I would say). I have seen other CBs put into that position that arent even listed on the CB5 depth chart. I suspect its also because of energy but I would prefer to see the depth chart respected rather than move people around. After all...if I wanted my CB1 at CB5, I would have put him there.

Which one of the 15 teams are you talking about? just looked at one of your teams and you have the same dot starting in the CB3 and CB4 slot, so obviously he cant be in both... if you have the same dot in CB5 that starts in another slot thats your problem.

put 1 dot in CB5 that is only a backup elsewhere and your problem should be solved.

it is pulling from the safety spot because there are no other dots to choose from. Fix your DC. This isnt a suggestion...

just for yello teams, when he screws up his DC, instead of pulling in another player, just play with 10.

Yello1 strikes again he screws up on a depth chart and he wants GLB to fix his mistake. I am still waiting on the ultimate Yello1 suggestion. "Please GLB run my teams for me so that I have a chance at having a winning team for once"

Lmao... he's saving that one for his Christmas wish list.

Yes I did forget and leave the CB starting at CB3 and CB4

But CB 5 does not have that dot in it.

And, in fact, the CB5(2) dot is not on ANY other CB list.

Thanks, I did have the generic CB slot empty. Its filled now, and have redone the whole CB chart since it looks like I had not finished it. Not sure otherwise why that CB5(2) would not have been someplace else. Unless it was my first effort to keep the safeties off the CB chart, no this came up and annoyed me before - after I intentionally put them there and did not care for the results.

Going to lock this as the only time the roster is used to pull a dot is when the slot is essentially empty (it's empty at the time of the fill, meaning all the dots within that slot would already be on the field).

There is no sort of energy override where a player from outside the depth chart slot is magically chosen over one from within.

Seems like yello mildly figured this out.
