NIL Freshman Abilities and Rating Caps
In dynasty, there is a big balancing issue with the highly ranked NIL freshman and their rating caps/mental abilities. Pretty much all of the real 5 star freshman have severe rating caps and no mental abilities, making them significantly worse than the freshman that you recruit in the game.
Bryce Underwood and Keelon Russell are the top 2 recruits and max out at an 87 OVR, reaching all their caps after 1 year. The highly ranked offensive tackles Juan Gaston, David Sanders, Lamont Rogers, and Ty Haywood literally can’t improve at run blocking, the 5 star DL all have extremely low caps on pass rushing and IQ, etc. It’s a major issue with the freshman at every position that needs to be fixed in the first title update to allow people to start dynasties without this issue.
