If I want to cut wages, what is the best method to select players that want to keep or release? And how many players should I have?

What I could do is to select a player for every position needed to have a legal formations and special team players, and then guess how many injuries there will be during the season.
Or I could drop every one who is 25 or older, then drop a few least talented players and finally drop players with least team work.

What do you think, are the maximum values even important when determinig who is to be out? Or should I compare just the starting values and team work abilities?

i'm cutting back on wages by firing players that aren't good in any positions. Then i get my players that are all around and they play 2 positions(usually offense and defense) it really cuts back on wages and i have good players for every position.

Could you explain why ?

I haven't seen any proof of this to be honest.

The second reason is spot on and reason enough to not play players multiple places.

If a player plays say OT and DT, will he gain full positional rating for both positions? Equal as if he would had played only one position? Remember, we are talking about cutting the wages by 50 %.

he wont!
