In order for the strat-o-matic pc game to validate your team you must be able to field all possible formations (even if you don't intend to use them.) In order to do so. Please adhere to the min roster requirements below which will allow you to ensure your team gets validated and you don't lose your last blind pick for a 0/0 something..

| Thanks for the tips Phil you are totally cool |
MIN Players
QB 1
RB 3 (min 1 HB, min 1 FB, remaining can be either FB or HB)
BB 1 (this is a tricky one; usually can be your FB & some TE are rated as BB. HOWEVER: Keep in mind, there is a formation that requires 1 FB AND 1BB. so you will need to be able to field a BB and FB simultaneously).
WR 4 (min 1 must be designated Flanker, min 1 must be designated Split end. In most 2 wr sets it requires specifically a SE and FL. so you cant play 2 WR designated as FL at the same time in these sets. you will need to run 3 or more WR to get your 2nd FL on the field.)
TE 2
Kicker 1
Punter 1
KOR 2
PR 2 (so i know i said you may only need 1 PR or KOR, The computer manager has a requirement for a 2nd PR and the roster has a required drop down for 2nd KOR. To be on the safe side i would suggest maintaining 2 of each)
LE 1
RE 1
DT 3 (this can be many combinations, however keep in mind you must be able to field a 5-6. so must be able to play a LT/NT/RT at the same time. Keeping in mind NTs can play either RT/LT and RT/LT can play NT. The only combination of DTs that really wont work is all RT or all LT. Though remember, any tackle playing out of their natural position subtracts 1 from rating)
LOLB or LLB 1
ROLB or RLB 1
ILB 2 (same as w DTs, many combinations of MLB/RILB/LILB will work, but cant have only 2 RILB as no one will be able to play LILB)
DB 6 (min 1 ea designated as LCB, RCB, SS, FS. remaining 2 can be from any position as they are plugged into nickle and dime formations as DB1 and DB2)
