Suggestion
A Team Needs table (center of screen) that breaks down not only which positions a team has a need at, but how much of a need they have, and whether the need is for starters, reserves, and/or minor leaguers. (In the above mock-up, a green box means the team is set, yellow means there is room for improvement, and red means they are in dire need. As you can see, a team can have different levels of needs for starters than they do for bench players or minor leaguers.)

Reason
The way the game currently lists these needs - a text description in the Trade Summary box - is cumbersome and makes the information difficult to visualize. A color-coded table would provide a clear, concise overview. Clarifying the need for either starters, reserves, and/or minor leaguers and how much of a need there is for each would further simplify the trading process.

Priority
Despite the fact that this information is already displayed in OOTP '07, it is so irksome that I feel this is a HIGH need. Plus, having the added Starters/Reserves/Minors component makes it even more important.
