CapForge: Football GM 2026

• Smarter first rounds: tackles and centres now go where they really go. A centre can top the board and still slide to a late-first pick, and clubs no longer reach for a run of cornerbacks at the top. • Clubs draft for real upgrades: a team stops stacking depth at one position when it already has a starter there. • College stats that match the hype: a highly projected prospect's college numbers now read like a first-rounder's, not a backup's. • A sharper scout's take: your scouts tell you when the tape and the numbers disagree, and when a pick is too early for his position. • A cleaner draft board: your recommended pick is marked OUR PICK right beside the reason, so rows stay compact. • New in the draft room: a DRAFT CLASSES sheet shows where each class is deep, and a SQUAD peek lets you check your roster from the market. • EDIT STAFF, reopened: set a coach's skills, personality and position coaches using the same ELITE to VERY POOR words the cards use. Staff contracts now show and edit their guaranteed years. • FILLS A NEED works on a full roster: free agency, TRADE BLOCK and the draft board show who would actually start for you, and a free agent who fills a need carries an arrow on his position. • Offensive linemen get scheme-fit tints and the SCHEME FIT filter like everyone else, and a player's "Thrives in" line now matches what the game rewards. • Contract drama: young stars coming off rookie deals can demand an extension, and a spurned star can refuse to re-sign or sit out. You'll see it coming, and other clubs will come calling for him. • OT, OG and C are now separate everywhere you filter players. • New-game setup adds an ADVANCED step: pick your league's starting year and more. • Press write-ups speak to each position, including a dedicated quarterback storyline. • A cleaner STAFF market board. • Fixes and polish: the last-pick draft card fits small screens, the FINAL mock draft waits for the locked draft order, staff RELEASE no longer hangs on LOADING after a relaunch, starter proposals name the week they take effect, and the staff contract editor fits large text sizes.
