Some sting-filled omissions. Their solution to free agency is mildly interesting, I guess. Seems like it'd add an additional layer of drama to our league, though.

whats a madden league without drama? Although if FMT lays out some ground rules for free agency at the start it should be alright....maybe

Clearly the order in which they should address the missing features is:

1. Salary cap
2. Import draft class
3. CPU trade logic

I'd put trading for picks and contracts waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay ahead of bullshit we'll never use like draft class and cpu logic.

The way Ian worded it, it seems that Gamespot's report that you can't trade players might be old information. Maybe I'm reading that Q&A wrong.

I thought you said picks, not players? I kind of assumed we could try players or even multiple ones.

You can trade players, not sure about picks. It says its almost identical to offline so I assume you can do picks as well no?

Can't do picks.

Q: Do you have multi-week and season ending injuries in online franchise?
A: Yes, we do. We also have career-enders as well (very rare).

This should be interesting when someone loses their key RB or defensive player...oh how much fun that will be until it happens to me :lol

Let's hope the first career ending injury is McNabb :D

Since the speed has been turned down I'm wondering how this will effect the online experience, seems like it could make it much better. This will be the first Madden that I've paid for since 05'

I expect at least 3 kick return for TD's from you in the first year with DeSean!

Per Wellie,

Eli- 87
Carr- 60
Bomar- 62

Jacobs- 90
Bradshaw- 73
Brown- 71

Hedgecock- 87

Nicks- 76
Smith- 76
Hixon- 70
Barden- 66
Moss- 60

Boss- 83
Beckum- 69

Diehl- 88
Seubert- 87
Ohara- 91
Snee- 97
Mckenzie- 88
Beatty- 76

Osi- 94
Tuck- 95
Kiwi- 85

Canty- 84
Robbins- 83
Bernard- 80
Cofield- 75

Boley- 82
Pierce- 86
Sintim- 74

Webster- 90
Ross- 81

Phillips- 78
M. Johnson- 78

Tynes- 66

I wonder what Mario Manningham would be. Checking at a glance, some of the rookies seem to be rated highly, and that's for all across the league. Beatty was a late 2nd rounder, and he's a 76. I'm okay with Nick, Sintim, and Beckum's ratings.

I don't understand Jacobs being so high.

I don't understand the OLine being so low.

Also, Giants motherfuckers. The Madden 10 redemption tour begins now.

I think Jacobs deserves his rating much more than say Tomlinson. Jacobs is money as long as he's not hurt. If they kept his INJ low, then I'm fine with that rating.
 

Striker

Jacobs is going to be about strength, trucking, and break tackle, and little about speed and acceleration (and hands). He's okay where he's at, especially considering guys like Larry Johnson at 88, and Jones-Drew and Gore are in low 90's I believe.

Eli's right at the spot I expected him, in the mix with McNabb, Romo, Cutler, Rivers, etc.

:lol I'm sorry, I was just trying to push Wellie's buttons. I like how you both quoted the same article, though. Nice synchronization.

We're all agreed on Eli, though, right?

Cant wait till our first matchup CK. It feels like forever since we played. I know its cause neither of us really had our hearts in the game last year. This year, im ready.

Oh, and your superbowl win over me is still tainted. EA put in the TO Douchebag rating in madden 06 and i lost because of it!

Its because you tried to play 2K.

Think I might play my copy of Madden 09 now.

I dont even remember who you played as in 2K. Nets? The New Jersey Devin's? Pretty sure i won that match-up.

Im convinced your Mr. ChiCity

Because of the low ratings, I think it will be harder for bad teams to go all the way in our league, so the SB will probably be an NFC east team (besides Was) vs Pitt or NE.

Year 3 will be much more interesting. My new QB will be a 2nd year vet by then!

FMT better switch to the Jets then. Only Sanchez can save him
