This roster update featured some very interesting moves up and few moves down. Aaron Donald saw some attributes drop as his performance on the virtual field has been minimal for the Rams with just 2 sacks and 7 tackles. Montrel Meander of the Browns was one of the biggest boosts of the update. The Browns focus player all season has placed himself at the forefront of the AFC as playmaking linebacker.
The Baltimore Ravens had a few players move up the ranks including Nyheim Hines and Marquise Brown. Brown was one of the few players to also move into the Superstar X-Factor development.
The Washington Commanders and Jacksonville Jaguars enjoyed some quarterback increases. Kyle Allen was one of the bigger boosts on offense moving from a 69 overall to a 79 overall. Allen is a top 5 statistical leader with a rating of 126.8. 19 TD’s and 8 INT’s. The Jaguars Trevor Lawrence continues to trend upward moving into the 90 overall rating field. This is no surprise as Urblessed00 is a Hall of Fame user who prides himself on elite QB play. D.J. Chark was increased to Superstar development to go with his +1 speed attribute increase. His increase was the result of winning a trivia contest.
Another fun story to watch is the emergence of Tight Ends Jacob Hollister and Adam Trautman. These two future weapons have really propelled the Jaguars and Saints into position for playoffs runs this year.
