    2017 APBA BIG TEN CONFERENCE COLLEGE FOOTBALL SET ROSTER The following players comprise the 2017 season APBA Big Ten ConferenceCollege Football Player Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first in bold 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.

  • NFL Roster Cuts –
    7 bekannte NFL Spieler, die in den nächsten Tagen ihren Job verlieren könnten In der nächsten Woche wird es einen Massenexodus von Spielern geben, da die NFL Teams ihren Roster auf 53 Spieler reduzieren müssen. Die Teams müssen ihr Personal bis Dienstag auf 85 Spieler reduzieren, bevor sie ihren Roster am 31. August endgültig festlegen. In einem knallharten Geschäft wie der NFL spielen frühere Leistungen keine Rolle, so dass zahlreiche bewährte Spieler Gefahr laufen, entlassen zu werden. 7 Spieler, die entlassen werden könnten: Devonta Freeman, RB, Saints Freeman hat seine besten Jahre offensichtlich schon lange hinter sich, aber die Saints haben sich in dieser Saison für ihn entschieden, obwohl sie bereits Alvin Kamara und Latavius Murray in ihren Reihen haben. Nun sieht es so aus, als ob Freemans Aufenthalt in New Orleans nur kurz sein wird. Die Leistungen des 29-Jährigen in der Preseason haben seinen Abwärtstrend nur fortgesetzt. Sechs Carries für sechs Yards in Spiel 1 sind einfach zu wenig. Außerdem hat Running Back Tony Jones Jr. mit 82 Yards bei sieben Versuchen in der vergangenen Woche eine starke Leistung gezeigt. Ryan Griffin, QB, Buccaneers Griffin ist seit 2015 in Tampa Bay zu Hause. Allerdings könnte er bald auf der Suche nach einem neuen Team sein. Der 31-Jährige wäre wahrscheinlich weiterhin als dritter Quarterback der Buccaneers geblieben, wenn diese nicht in der zweiten Runde den Quarterback Kyle Trask aus Florida verpflichtet hätten. Da hinter Tom Brady und Blaine Gabbert ein junger Kandidat in den Startlöchern steht, gibt es keinen Platz mehr für Griffin. Sony Michel, RB, Patriots Michel hat nach drei Jahren in der Liga mehr als genug Erfahrung.
