Changing a player's weight

I know it's possible to change a player's weight over time but how much is the most people have seen? I've got a TE that shows good stats for a WR. He's 246 pounds though. Do you think I could get that down to 200 pounds?!!

You'd have to edit his position to WR to get his weight down. You can still keep him in your depth chart as a TE while the weight drops.

Thanks. Yeah I've changed him to wr but simply wondered whether that amount of weight loss has ever been seen in MFN before

It's has been nerfed. Changing positions to change weight to make a player faster/ stronger is useless now. You be lucky to get one to change 10 pounds a season . Under the old model it was about 3 or 4 ponds during the regular season and the same for preseason and camp. Now you be lucky to get 3 or 4 ponds a season . I believe some outlies might benefit but they must be so rare I have never seen one on a season ny of my teams for about a season or two . I bet is was rolled out with 4.0.1

At the rate the game currently has players gain/lose weight, that transition will take about a decade IG.
