thanks man

So it's confirmed that Rodgers and Favre are Slinger 1 and basically the same release? I'm using Rodgers... and love him so far. But I think Favre will become the best QB in the game once he gets his UL card. I picked up his Power Up and The 50 card and will just hang onto them in my binder until then.

I overlooked him when he was released... there was a thread today asking about the best WRs in the game and I took a look at him and said... there's my Deion upgrade! Have not played at all today but will hop into some games tomorrow hopefully.

I just hope the WR is not a Route Runner archetype because I literally just shelled out 500k for Isaac Bruce earlier today! Give us another Deep Threat... PLEASE EA!

Bookmarked for later. Thanks for the tip.

I agree with those below who wish they would go slower to make the game last longer. But EA caters to the majority... and the majority of players do not play this game year round. Many are done when the Super Bowl is over or shortly thereafter. So that's when EA starts to divert resources and we get only stale recycled content from that point onwards. As I said in another thread recently... this is what we can expect from here out: Combine Promo - end of February Free Agency Promo - mid March Series 6 - late March Color Smash Promo - early April Draft Promo - mid April Rookie Premier Promo - June Maybe... if we are lucky... Golden Tickets sometime in May. I'm not holding my breath though.

I just looked at Bruce... he's a Route Runner archetype and looks incredible. I'll be picking him up later this week to replace Deion.

This question can only be answered in the context of theme teams vs. non theme teams plus abilities vs. no abilities. Non-theme team here... 98 OVR team... I prefer Route Runner archtypes because Route Technician only costs 2 AP. So I have Diggs and Deion with Route Tech as my #1 and #2. I put Moss in the slot because he's still great without abilities. I have maxed Tyreek as WR4 and will situationally sub him in and even throw to him on occasion... and Swann as my WR5 who no longer sees the field. Deion will be replaced with the next great Route Runner but he's still balling for me.

Here's what we can expect.... Combine Promo - end of February Free Agency Promo - mid March Series 6 - late March Color Smash Promo - early April Draft Promo - mid April Rookie Premier Promo - June Maybe... if we are lucky... Golden Tickets sometime in May. I'm not holding my breath though.

I think it's pretty safe to assume we won't be getting ANYTHING innovative from this point onwards. There will be a few expected promos (Combine, Color Rush, Free Agents, etc.). But it's evident that EA doesn't invest many resources into Madden following the Super Bowl.
