Hey Jeremy,
First and foremost, BB is like a marathon and not a sprint, a lot of patience is needed when forming a team.
Secondly, you will need to sell a lot of your players that you have recently bought. Specifically anyone who costs over 10k per week.
Next, you definitely got lucky by getting Emerson Foreman and being able to sell him for about 2 million dollars. Don't spend it all on players, you will need that to expand your arena.
Lastly, you are in a league where all the other teams are run automatically by BB (aka bots). These team are very easy to beat, you can easily beat them with your starting team you were given to from the beginning.
The key to D.V is to:
1. Keep a low salary roster.
2. Learn the basics of your lineup/tactics
3. Learn how to manage Gameshape and Enthusiasm.
4. Build up your arena.
5. Build up your cash.
Sent me a BB mail if you would like more specifics, I would like to help you get a good start at BB.
