Roster limits, AI choosing player to release

Reed · 09-02-2016, 05:16 PM

I play historical (real players retire/miss season according to real life). Normally I play with unrestrictive reserve roster limit. If I set a limit, what criteria will the AI use in deciding which players to release if their team exceeds the limit. Will the AI just look to see which players have the best current ratings, or potential rating, or future career value. I.E. will they release a good prospect with poor current ratings keeping a so so player with 1 year left in his career.
Under historical tab, historical player rating I have base potential on remaining years of career but I don't know if AI looks at that when releasing players due to roster limits.
Also, some AI GMs prefer prospects and some prefer vets, will that factor into the selection?
