None like said above. You gotta find what works with the style of plays you call and the scheme you run. I run my scheme with big bully receivers like Alshon, TO, etc. and they are must have players for me, while other players will probably hate using them. Just gotta figure out what your scheme, style and type of play is. You may like high point receivers or speedsters on offense and you may like pure bull rushers like Ray on defense or quick agile guys. Just find players that can accent your strengths while covering up your weaknesses on the game skills because you won’t really find a game over type of player just one that can improve your scheme.   like all the guys above that love Peppers. He may be great when rushing 4, but I send most of my heat from the lb’s and slot so he goes unnoticeable and blows hard against the run for me but he may be lights outs in other schemes.

If hemed up Chuck Badnarik is without question the best in a 3-4.    Von gets my vote because of his ability to get to the outside and speed/agility. Ware just never seemed to be the dominate force his stats showed for me.

Considering that every two players revealed (offense and defensive player) an LTD player is revealed. I wonder if this will mean that 3 offensive players, 3 defensive players, 1 LTD offense, 1 LTD defense, and 1 LTD surprise will happen... or if it will be 3 UL LTDs.  Or is it just 6 UL players in total with 2 O’s, 2 D’s, LTD O, and LTD D.

Quote from mvandor >> Simple economics. With a crashed market, even though EA has improved pack odds (they clearly have), it simply does not compensate for a market that at best has dropped to half of what would be typical this time of year. Others have noted other games cut pack prices periodically, it's being done and is not a new idea. And do you REALLY think any sane individual is dropping a dime of real money on bundles right now when your return will be half what it was a few weeks ago? There is no value, not when a newly released gold 99 UL can be grabbed off AH for 100,000 coins as someone above cited for a Harrison.   If you are one of those guys that seldom pays in cash or coin for packs or bundles, and is still working to upgrade your team, you're in heaven, certainly, as AH has collapsed to where you can grab who you want for a song.

Quote from mvandor >> Clearly they need an economics advisor. The AH has crashed to dirt cheap yet EA is holding prices for UL and Legends packs. You'd have to pull a gold 99 PLUS some to have any chance to recover your 120,000 coins on a UL pack.   They need to start cutting prices on packs or find a way to recover the market. This is the first week I won't buy ONE of these. I wanted the UL Rodney Harrison for my Chargers and bought him for 150,000 on AH in the first hour.   Wake up EA. Paid attention to much of anything they’ve done this year? They’ve held the market very balanced with mild inflation’s and deflation’s through the course of the year.

CJ is much better than Sanders imo. Sanders got powered down after 5-6 games because he just wasn’t cutting it for me. Sanders may be better in the long run because his learning curve may take a bit longer, but CJ just broke so many tackles for me and played so well that I had to bring him back.

Your only legit options are either putting eagle cbs in the main D lineup and putting your legit starters at sl cb, jr, Pr, etc. or having Graham, Alshon, Ag, Lane, etc. plus the other Eagles players in the main lineup and choosing 2-4 non-team players for your cb’s. Unfortunately there aren’t any options at cb for the Eagles. Darby is decent but not good enough to keep up with the current wr’s.

So much aggression on here. The thing is cheese doesn’t exist. Just schemes and plays that are more difficult to stop and require more adjustments, or understAnding of route concepts and reading coverage.   If you don’t understand how and when to run these plays then it won’t matter what the play is called. Grab 5 plays in a couple formations and s fun or two from each plays and run them like crazy through man, cover2, cover3, etc.and once they become natural reads then you’re ready to put them to use with efficiency.    Heres one. This is the ground work play for my scheme out of the NE playbook.  Singleback Bunch Ace PA Fork Shot drag your X  Streak the TE Block your hb motion your outside receiver outside Read from drag (x), corner (a), post (b), streak (rb)    From this formation you can open up the toss, inside zone, etc.

Your backfield players traits will change the way they block. Scrambling qbs hold blocks for a shorter time to prep for going Down field, pocket passers hold the pocket longer, etc. . Same goes for running backs and their hidden running style. The awr of the qb and the rb will also have an influence on how your line will block.    This is why like mentioned above, it takes a few games to adjust to the traits and reestablish your money plays that may work for one player but not the other

A DT and a NT are two different things. Scheme is a big focus this year with EA so it makes a big difference that your DL fits the scheme. Guys like MJG, Bruce Smith, etc. don’t perform anything like Damon, Brandon Williams, Casey, etc. if you put them in a 4-3 they would be in the shadows, but they are huge strong guys and cause havoc in a 3-4. This is part of the reason why some guys love some players and get endless highlights with them where others never even notice them doing anything.
