- Knights/Paladins/Warriors (or whomever the main character is) - usually the QB... Burrow, Dalton, Palmer, etc....though back in the day I used "Blake" for the guy that tried his best to save our franchise
- healing dudes - usually offensive line guys
- multi class dudes are usually the tight end (whoever is starting at the time)
- for women characters it gets a bit tricky....the last couple years I'll use Burrow's gf, Katie Blackburn, or Eli Apple (cause Eli is a *****)
- Then I use WRs/RBs to round out the party
ive never used Bengals players... but thats an interesting thing... i usually use a cast or names from another fiction.
Like Dark souls 1 i made a pyro name Richard Rahl... In Dark souls 2 i had Nathan Rahl also pyro (his 1000 year old uncle) from the sword of truth series. (they are both wizards in the book with richard being a war wizard)
Then later i used Sean Bean characters cause he dies alot in his films.... lol.
And i used Game of thrones characters for a game. But generally i just pull from like wise media/history. (wizard named rasputin/ warrior named Atilla)
FF7 taught me not to name people after friends lol
