Took over a team destroyed by AI in a league, having to gut it for the most part.

Signing a load of FAs - as will be below the number of active players due to cuts made, are FAs signed automatically added to the depth chart to add up to 46 players?

Asking as have a game tomorrow.

If your depth chart has less than 46 players active when the game sims then the AI will redo your depth chart according to your player weights while activating enough players. You can always sign players to one year minimum deals so I'm not too sure about how many players the AI will sign as I've always had enough. I'm going to look as I think I have a screenshot of JDB explaining this and I will edit if I find it/upload it

Edit: found it, and here's the link https://ibb.co/C6KmPFH

all FA's/draft pix must be manually activated and added into the user depth chart (My Team tab -> Depth Chart).
Upon signing, such players are added to the roster as inactives, but not added to th eactual depth chart.
Just in case - for the uber new to MFN - it's a drag from roster drop to depth chart position situation. :P

PS: never, ever choose the "Auto Set Depth Chart" option.
