NFL Head Coach Hints: ------ Submitted by: conner54 Drafting Reggie Bush: --------------------- When starting a new season, choose to coach for the Texans so that in the first year's draft you can choose Reggie Bush. Alternately, coach for a team that has one of the first draft picks and choose Reggie Bush if he is still not drafted when you get your first draft pick. If he has been drafted, reload your game and try again until he is available. Recommended players: -------------------- There are two sleepers to watch out for in the 2006 NFL Draft. Troy McCoy is a very intelligent MLB and possess decent speed and strength. He has above average tackling and is great in zone coverage. McCoy's downside is that he is injury prone. This sleeper will usually still be around late in the fourth round, but he is usually not available after that. Another sleeper is LE, Chris Craig, who is big at 287 pounds with exceptional speed at that size. He shows good awareness, which will only improve with experience. He has the strength to get by the offensive line, and is an outstanding tackler. A lot of teams do not have Craig rated high on their boards, so he usually will be around in the third round, even though he should go in the first. Clown body: ----------- Enter "Red Nose" as a coach name. John Madden body: ----------------- Enter "John Madden" as a coach name. Santa Claus body: ----------------- Enter "Merry Christmas" as a coach name. Super Bowl always played wherever you coach: -------------------------------------------- Enter "Hometown Hero" as a coach name. Trades never rejected by other team: ------------------------------------ Enter "Robert Vapor as" a coach name. Better player performance: -------------------------- To allow your WR and QBs to have high numbers on game day, run either the 1 vs. 1 WR/DB Con or Pass Skeleton Con drill as your last practice before game day. This will allow your WRs and QBs number to almost be their best for a game, and allows no time for them to drop before a game. Recommended players: -------------------- The best sleeper in the 2006 NFL Draft is Claude Wroten, the DT. He will start off as a 68 overall but at the beginning of the season will be at least a 77 overall, and when he is really doing a good job he can go to a 90 overall. Chris Craig and Troy McCoy are also two great sleepers. In the 2006 Draft Troy McCoy will do better off for you than D'Qwell Jackson ever would. If your team needs a MLB then wait till the fifth or sixth round to get Troy McCoy. Chris Craig will go as far as the sixth round and no later. Claude Wroten goes into the fifth round but try to get him in the fourth round. Recommended players: -------------------- When choosing a franchise, interview with the Atlanta Falcons. When you get the job, trade Michael Vick and your first and second round draft picks to the New Orleans Saints for their first round pick. Select Vince Young with the second pick. During your first year, Vince will not be as good (probably as a 79 rating). However, work with him in the offseason. In the second year he will be spectacular, and at the end of the season he will be near or at a 99 rating overall. He will lead you to the playoffs. He will become a star and help you through many seasons, which will improve your coaching status.
