You need to edit career.dbf. Basically, all you need to do is add new entries. The stats fields are fairly easy to decipher (they're the same as the ones in players.dbf), just make sure you don't mess up the IDs. Each new entry in the dbf needs its own unique ID (the next available number) and the PLAYERID has to match the player you want to assign career stats to.

The best way of editing a roster is to save the rosters so that you can edit the dbfs in the appropriate save folder, then re-load the roster with the changes.

Again, the best way is to save the roster and edit the dbf files in the appropriate save folder rather than currentdb etc; that way you can easily reload the files with the changes you've made.
