First, determine what type or style of football team you want to build. Many successful real-life coaches use the 8-Star System or the Inside-Out Strategy to build their dynasties. The principle of the 8-Star System is that you choose which 4 offensive and 4 defensive positions are most important to your game plan, then draft star quality talent (95 or better overall rating) in those positions. The rest of your roster is supported by solid talent (75-90 rating). The principle of the Inside-Out Strategy is that you build your team from the middle out - all positions at the center of the line, both offense and defense, are star quality talent. Both styles could be combined, or you can come up with your own variation.
