At least this draft has a ton of good WRs so I think you'll be fine. There's a couple that I put over Carroll too. Even if you don't draft one the undrafted FAs can be great, see OROTY Trey Glass.
Maurice Leopard was also a UDFA, he should've won OROTY and best WR on the NFC side. He'd be the clear cut best WR in the league if not for the Ramirez AI games.

My 3rd round RB DJ Greenwood was second place in OROTY NFC voting last I checked this AM. He of the 9 YPC, would've been MVP if he could run between the tackles.

The "spread sheet" (which is just a list) says hes an 87 overall with 97 speed and star development. That is all it says, so maybe he sucks in certain attributes and his overall is boosted by awareness or something. The only way to know that is to you know, scout people.

Wow, that's the only info it gives you about a WR? Talk about useless!

That's the only info it gives about any player. Its not a spread sheet with every rating.

Of course we all know speed is all that matters, so hey!

Maybe if Greenwood hadn't been a pussy and played against Seattle!

Also: SKIP BAYLESS@SkipBaylessEA I want to see how Maurice Leopard does once he can't sneak up on anybody anymore. #notbestWR

MARK SCHLERETH@MarkSchlerethEA Been a heck of a season for Maurice Leopard. Star in the making. #NFC #OffROTY

BARRY SANDERS@BarrySandersEA
You had to give the award to Ben Roethlisberger after the way he played this year. #OPoY

TREY WINGO@WingozEA
Barry Sanders, Tom Brady, Drew Brees and Ben Roethlisberger -- all two-time offensive MVPs.

ROSS TUCKER@RossTuckerEA
To be that good and that talented, wow. #Roethlisberger

MARK SCHLERETH@MarkSchlerethEA
Congratulations go out to Ben Roethlisberger for winning the MVP award.

MARK SCHLERETH@MarkSchlerethEA
Ben Roethlisberger has the respect of players in the locker room and in the media. #MVP again

Too bad Roofies doesn't have the respect of his fellow Madden GAFers.

I agree with Skip, if I threw to Harvin as much as you dorks threw to a single receiver I'd have had over 2000 yards! My problem is I throw it to Owusu too, so he broke 1000 yards also.

I can't believe I lost so many games this season. I actually improved my defense a lot. I was ranked 30th in defensive yards last season. This season my offensive yards is ranked 6th and defensive is ranked 15th. I threw too many INTs this year, I guess. Hopefully I turn around next season

Didn't Leopard catch like 20 of your 23 TDs or something close to it? Seems like people should be able to look at how you use him and think about where he is when the huddle breaks.

I dunno!

It's no coincidence my worst games running the ball were against you and CB. You guys could put 10 in the box and your DBs have no problem being matched up 1 on 1.

Leopard will be fine. I want my opponents to make the choice of either stopping the run or stopping Leopard and Waters.

At least Will Myers finishes the season strong.

MIKE HILL@MikeHillEAIt shouldn't come as a shock to hear that Will Myers is the NFC player of the week.

Cmon Donny, gimme dat bump!

DONNY MOORE@Donny_MooreTwo things are certain this wk...1) W. Myers is not playing like a rook 2) Somebody getting some Madden Ratings love in the #RosterUpdate

Poor DCX, still getting no respect.

TREY WINGO@WingozEACan't convince myself that the Falcons are the team to beat with T. Stark at the helm.

Considering Waters drops 1/3 of the passes thrown at him I'd definitely put more effort into covering Leopard!


You can't say that when you guys have the cards, seahawks, Bucs, and the nfc north. Drizz did alright.

I've won more games than the Browns, Ravens and Jaguars combined! Also I'm the only person to beat FMT this season! When was the last time any of the AFC bottom feeders knocked off a top tier AFC team?

Your better lost two times to a 7-9 team.

Nightz won like 4 games last season (Sorry bud!), which of Rors or LJ did you beat this year? I'll even throw in Crow despite his Velveeta. We all know Rors sandbagged to make a huge 19-0 run in season 3, Year of the Raiders

I defeated you.

I defeated Smokey.

I defeated Crow.

I defeated Nightz.

Should I go on? Rors only won due to the game letting him win. That was my game and it was ripped from me.

Rinse, we will talk! I may be actively willing to move up this draft to anyone with a top 5 or 10 pick!

What have you done lately? (nothing)
When is the last time a non-FMT NFC team won the Super Bowl?
BigAT Packers?

You totally did beat me in my 6th game of Madden this year, I hope you stick around till our divisions play again!

If I could think of a Ryder Cup style Madden tournament AFC vs NFC I would totally do that.

You lost to me, your argument is now void.

You'll never beat me. I'd never let that happen.

Your record is inflated because you play other NFC teams. I'm telling you. Let's hold a tournament with all the bottom halves of the divisions. AFC will win that 10 times out of 10. I'd bet my avatar for 10 years on it.

I proposed that tournament exactly to end this argument! But there doesn't seem to be much traction.

I know you did. We should do it.

Ravens
Browns
Titans
Jaguars
Dolphins
Jets
Raiders
Chiefs

vs

Lions
Vikings
Bucs
Panthers
Cowboys
Redskins
Seahawks
Cards

Bet you an AFC team takes that.

Or we could just do the 4 teams with the best record out of those.

Raiders
Titans

vs

Cowpokes
Redskins

I think we got this, drizz!

DCX, you are the division champ. No shame in losing to you!

Lol, probably not. :( We won't play again for so long too.

I was so happy at the time, up 28 to 7 in the 2nd, thinking this is it! I'm finally going to defeat Rors! Then the game broke bad for me with crazy things happening to let you back in the game. Still, I had a chance late in the 4th and that missed Marshall pass haunts me. That's a game changing play.

I think Ryder Cup style match ups would be fun too.

I would sub out the Raiders or another team from the AFC East because we all know you'd run away with this tournament otherwise.

The Madden Ryder Cup would basically have to be something like: 6 or 7 head to head series best of 3 or 5, which outcomes determining points along some scale where there's a maximum of 3 points available per series, i.e. 3-0 = 3 points for winner, 3-1 = 2.5 points for winner, .5 points for loser, 3-2 = 2 points winner, 1 point loser.

Drafting would be, best six or seven players in the conference with captain's alternating picks of who their roster will play, once a player is picked, they obviously cannot be picked again.

i.e. FMT and Rors as Captains, FMT says I want to play Drizzler, Rors says I want Crow to play Wellie, now none of those players can be picked.

Who would the NFC even field for this?
FMT
CB
BigAT
Birdles
Wellie
DM???
Bobby???
DCX???

That's a pretty strong top 6/7

They're in the bottom half of their division! Whatchoogonnado? That's how the AFC rolls.

Eff that. I propose the following:

1. Cowboys
2. Buccaneers
3. Redskins
4. Panthers
5. Seahawks
6. Lions
7. Vikings
8. Cardinals

1. Titans
2. Patriots
3. Dolphins
4. Jets
5. Chiefs
6. Ravens
7. Browns
8. Jaguars

We can either do AFC side and NFC side or just inter mix from the start.

IE Round 1 would have either Dallas vs Arizona or Dallas vs Jacksonville.

Lol, I like the subtle dig. Good job.

I think this could be fun for the off season. Wish we could use our online teams in this cup. It took me awhile to adjust from Cutler to Myers. I don't know if using Cutler again would mess me up.

DM a 2-time Super Bowl winner last year gets to play, but Rors doesn't?

Weak, smells like pussy

If we can come up with two decent tournament formats, this might be a good way to pause the league during the holidays with the "Ryder Cup" and the "Dumpster Chalice"

Good point, let's dump DM for MrBob. Now the exclusion of Rors is balanced out.

1. Cowboys
2. Redskins
3. Bears
4. Panthers
5. Seahawks
6. Lions
7. Vikings
8. Cardinals

1. Titans
2. Patriots
3. Dolphins
4. Jets
5. Chiefs
6. Ravens
7. Browns
8. Jaguars

Now we have 3 teams from the mediocre division of each conference.

If anything, Rors finishing third in his division is a testament to how strong the AFC is. Thems the breaks, he should be there
