Simply stated:

Allow the ability to choose who the primary reciever is on a play within the package creatino screen. This could be our bridge between what we have now and the OPC. How many times have we seen WR's that we want to throw to get open and the QB doesn't even look at him because the WR is too far down the progression chart. Here is what I see.

+1 to the suggestion

My question though is who is the QB going to throw to if you set the HB as the primary receiver and the FB as the 2nd progression? Would it automatically default to the 3rd progression since guys out of the backfield are invisible to QB's now?

My theory is that the progression works in an order chart...

So if original progression is hypothetically for this play:

WR2
TE
WR1
HB
FB

And you choose WR1 as primary instead of WR2 it would just go in order still but with rollover.

WR1
HB
FB
WR2
TE

This seems the simplest way to do it or we could incorporate a choose your own progression as a 1st read, 2nd read, 3rd read and then QB chooses open man after 3rd read?

+1 infinity and beyond

Might as well add that for OAI outputs also

I would love this. From the package/output screen a simple drop down menu could be placed similar to the man coverage selector in the DPC. It would effectively make every pass play in the playbook play different.

or let the AI dictate 1st read then immediately look for open guy. too often you find a play that will work if only the QB would hit the open guy instead of the primary target.

I love it

I liked this idea better:

+1
but BTW
http://goallineblitz.com/game/forum_thread.pl?thread_id=3553315
locked it and then AFTER you locked it made your own?

anyway +1

Correct but incorrect... I created before I locked the other as I didn't see it.. But I rather a thread with detailed information prevail than a thread that just generally suggests that something should be done. Nothing against it... just elaborated the idea with detail.

instead of having the QB select fav target the OC gets to select it on every play

OP updated for original post suggestion.

Please, please make this happen.
