Gridiron GM: Pro Football

Run the cap, work the draft, call the week. Free to play, no forced ads or timers, ever. Everything in the shop is a convenience, never an advantage.

You are the general manager. Seventeen games, fifty-three players, one salary cap and an owner who reads the standings.

• A real salary cap — signing bonuses, proration, dead money, restructures, post-June-1 designations and the franchise tag. Cut a player and you pay for it for years. • A seven-round draft with fog. Every prospect is a range, not a number, and the range only narrows if you spend the season scouting. • Play-by-play simulation. Every yard lands on a named player's stat line, and the season leaderboard looks like a real one. • Coordinators own the scheme. Lose your offensive coordinator to a head coaching job and every player's fit changes with him. • Players who want things. Money, snaps, a ring, the spotlight. Ignore them and they hold out. • Owner goals, a job security meter, and a coaching carousel that will sack you — and clubs that will hire you when it does.

Free to play, with optional rewarded adverts. No timers, no energy, no interruptions, and nothing you cannot earn by running the club well.
