  • The Following Players Comprise the 2017 Season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set. the Regular Starters at Each Position Are L
    2017 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER The following players comprise the 2017 season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble. Players highlighted in yellow played for two or more teams. They are assigned to the team they last played for in the season.

    NFL Draft Preview 2017 tthhhereere is only one IIInn TThhiiiss IIIssssuuee::: PPaatthh ttoo tthhee DDrraafftt AAnnaallyyzziiinngg MMyylleess GGaarrrreetttt LLaattee RRoouunndd SSlleeeeppeerrss 110000++ PPllaayyeerr RRaattiiinnggss Path to the Draft: 2017 is as unpredictable as ever We called last year’s draft “solid” so we’ll call this year…unique, perhaps. As much as the pundits and teams want a solid QB class, it just isn’t there. Edge rushers of all size and scheme continue to dominate the landscape, forcing the NFL into more hybrid defenses that best utilize their talents. Despite continuous claims by experts that the era of the running back is dead there may be more backs drafted in the first round than quarterbacks. This year’s class is very reminiscent of the 2013 draft, which we dubbed “The Championship Builder.” It’s not as strong a class overall, but similar in that there’s a lot of depth where teams can build a solid core of their roster in rounds 2-5. There should be lots of movement at the top of the draft as teams jostle for the few potential superstars in this class. There’s more unknowns heading into the draft than in recent memory, which should make for tons of intrigue on draft weekend! QB: Mitch Trubisky seems to have separated himself from the rest of the pack despite only one year as a starter at North Carolina, not exactly a football powerhouse. Teams are likely attracted to his athleticism, accuracy and a 24-0 TD-INT ratio in the red zone. Notre Dame’s DeShone Kizer is a noted diva and had a down 2016 season.
