Player Editor

Overview

The player editor lets you change a player's name, position, salary, contract, seasons played, age, and typical season statistics. To turn on this feature, you need to:

 Enable Commissioner Mode

 Select the Scouting Report for the player you'd like to Edit

 Hit the Edit Player button

Editing Vital Stats

Position: Player's primary position (e.g. 'Linebacker'). (Position in parentheses provides additional information, such as 'Left Inside Linebacker'.)

Contract Years: Total number of years in the player's current contract.

Editing Player Stats

The center of the 'Edit Player' screen lets you edit historical and predicted stats for the player shown. Historical stats are actual stats accrued by the player in NFL season. Use the dropdown listbox to select the season you want to edit. Predicted stats are stats used by the Football Mogul game engine to generate internal ratings during game simulation. For example, if you type in 1500 yards in 300 carries for a running back, that player will tend to rush for about 5 yards per attempt, subject to the skills of his offensive line, weather, usage, injuries, and other factors.

That is, if the player allowed 3.25 sacks, this will be displayed as the number 13.

Note: Edting 'Predicted Sacks Allowed' will have no effect, because this value is derived from the player's 'Pass Blocking Rating'.
