But, he did this in my sims after averaging less than .5 of each per game. Also, this was only a 20 game sample size, in week 2, against the Sabercats. We didn't realize the ineffectiveness of the Wraith's D line as a whole yet. It's hard to compare 2 players (Maddox and Tuck) when they are part of 2 very different defenses that run different schemes.  The Outlaws get more volume stats as a whole.

Yeah that's a terrible methodology to draw these broad conclusions from with far too many variables not controlled for.

Was definitely not designed as any kind of official test, just a quick and very dirty way of seeing if it maybe could make a difference. Until we do full scale tests across multiple scenarios and multiple positions, we have basically nothing to go on.

Used 9/12 file so I could sim an entire season. Did 20 seasons with the weird tags, then did 20 seasons of the same players with no tags. I don't really see anything to make a big deal about. The DE had a 1 sack per year difference, the WR had about a 2 yds/game difference (also a 1 TD/yr difference but TDs are a fickle stat), the DT was close to identical. I think a larger sample size would bring the averages even closer but doing two sets of 20 took long enough.

Kurt=DE
Willie=WR
Sandy=DT

Well I can tell you don't bother testing TE > OL or QB > OL because that has zero effect. I tested it with a solid methodology.

My position switch made me so bad I didn't even make the list of switched players

Vash Erikson has always been a safety? Did you mean, Started safety and now playing CB? If not, I have clearly lost what direction my player is going in.
