The Filter drop-down typically appears to the right of the View drop-down on screens that have lists of players, like the Roster screen.

Where a view answers the question "What pieces of data would you like to view?" A filter instead answers the question, "Whose data would you like to view?" By default, FHM displays data for all relevant people for the current screen. For example, the draft screen displays all players in the draft. A team roster displays all of the players on that team. Filters are used to narrow down the list of players whose data you are viewing.

In FHM3, you have the following filter options:

Filter Usage
Age Shows all players that fit into the specified age range (as of the current day in the game.)
Abilty/Potential Shows all players that fir into the specified ranges of ability (the player's current skill level) and potential (the ability the player may be able to reach in the future). These are relative to your current league (or the top league in the game if your are unemployed); 6.0 is the approximate cutoff to be good enough to make the starting roster of a team, approximately 8.0 and above are star-level players.
Position Shows only the players whose primary position (the one listed first on their player screen) is checked on this list.
Signable If checked, shows only players who you can sign to a contract, e.g. players who are younger than your league's minimum age are excluded.
Nationality Shows only players who have the selected nationality (players may have up to three nationalities, so they may have other ones as well.)
Restricted FA's Shows only free agents who qualify as RFA's according to league rules. Usually, signing these players requires providing compensation to their former team.
Unestricted FA's Shows only free agents who qualify as UFA's according to league rules. These players can be signed freely without having to compensate their former team.
