I just retired my free player and on day 40 I am going to build a new guy...

But I really want to know what the best/worst archetypes are for every respective positions...

Naturally it being a free player I have preference to take a glamour position or a high profile defensive position...

Any help greatly appreciated

Combo TE is worst TE
Pass rushing DT is the worst of all.

Depends entirely on what kind of player you want to build. If HBs get down enough to be eligible for the free player, then I like the Elusive archetype.

Has anyone built a STer HB?

Does kick returner count as a ST'et?

I've got a HB returner, but he's an elusive a-type, not ST'er. I'm curious as to the answer to Dub's question.

ST HB on a WL team

edit: I have a combo TE, ST HB, and pass rushing DT... bad archetype trifecta! I'm so good at this game.

I would stay away from anything not "starter material". Any Combo or STOP or blocking positions. You're on the right track about going for the high dollar dots... just know that everyone else is trying to the same. The good news is that the Free Dot has been around for long enough now that there's not as many competing against you. Still, positions like QB, HB, and WR are the same here as it was back in high school... everybody wants to be one. Pay or Free.
I would add to what everybody else has put down so far... the rushing QB. Yeah... it's something people use... but if you're gonna have a Free Dot QB... throwing the ball will get you more PT than running it. And that's what the Free Dot is about (to me, anyways)... getting the most bang for it.

So wrong, Pass Rushing DTs do quite well when you know how to build


Build a WR

Either a Possession or Speed WR and i can help point you in the right direction

I have a KR HB, KR archetype, he is pretty good running and catching out of the backfield, as well as returning

Power WR is prett bad, and the "combo" guys with lowers ALGs are inherently bad. I think the hard hitter CB arch is also somewhat disadvantaged just by their weight. I can't think of any other archetypes that are "bad" by nature, and all the "good"ones are probably equally good in their own ways.
