A school festival is a festival that takes place at our school!
Do you want to recreate Madden 2004 with a lightening quick Michael Vick throwing to a 97 rated Jeremy Shockey???

How about having a backfield comprised of Jim Brown and Walter Payton running behind a Anthony Munoz anchored line??

Then lets play Madden 15 on the PS4 with all Hall of Fame rosters in a fantasy draft!


I know there are already 3 other PS4 leagues currently running, but I figured there would be enough interest in a 4th league if we had Hall of Fame/legends players involved in a fantasy draft. So sign up and we will get the first portion of the draft scheduled for the week after the Super Bowl. Depending on how many players we get signed up, I will section the draft into 2 parts so we don't skimp on depth (it is pretty fun to pick up someone like Vincent Jackson in the 30th round due to the sheer number of awesome players).

So when you sign up, please list the following information:

Team
Most reliable evenings for the draft (I am going to shoot for sometime Tuesday-Thrusday evenings to draft next week, so let me know if one day works better then the others)
Any specific players you want in the league from certain years (like if you were a big fan of 2003 Alge Crumpler or 2008 Troy Polamalu). Most of the players will be in the league already, but I just want to be sure player's favorites are in there as well.
PSN Id


As for the rules, they will be like most of the other PS4 leagues running currently. All-pro difficulty, 6 minute quarters, no cheese play, etc.

Reserve your teams now and let me know your preferences!

At the speed in which we advance...we play like 1 game a week in each league if we are lucky. I play more MUT games than that in a night usually, rofl.

I didn't even know this was an option with madden to use Hall of Fame/ Legends.. Is Sean Taylor in this mode?

I also work nights, so I wouldn't be able to draft. I may join however after the draft to a CPU drafted team.

We will be using a custom downloadable roster that was created online. I will make sure Sean Taylor is one of the safeties for Washington.

Just updated the list! I guess we will shoot for next Tuesday for the first part of the draft, how does 7 Central work for everyone?

I meant to sign it up as owners, but I don't care. There is no salary cap or anything.

Let me look up the roster we are using, it is one of the more popular ones. I only added one player, Ron Mexico.

The draft will be on Tuesday at 7 central (since paperback was the only one that wrote back)! It should go fast with so few owners. But yeah, like Dubious mentioned, there are some really powerful people on defense that can change a game.

E: poo poo, can you move the draft back an hour for me. I'm a west coaster and unfortunately I have a very good job for being :350: all the time. I get off at 5 and then have a 40 minute commute home. Welcome to CA.

Yeah, we can push the draft back to 8 Central. I can't guarantee we will get the entire thing done tonight, but we can see how everyone is doing.

The info for people that want to join before I can send them an invite:

League Name: SASLegend Password: moss2moss

I might be wrong about the password, but I am pretty sure that is it.


I keep forgetting to post what rosters I am using. Just go to downloadable rosters on the menu, then it should be the first one that says "Legends" on it.

Will the CPU give me a dogshit team if I only stay around for the first couple of rounds? I mean I really want Favre but honestly don't give a poo poo what I get as long as I can compete.....

I can't do the the whole thing, I just want to do like 15 rounds or something to build a base and let the CPU do the rest. In my sim draft I did everybody good was gone by then.

If its the one i used its reasonable. Theres 99s yes but you arent building a 99 ovr team and thats for drat sure.

Unlike that mlb roster jabro used where your whole team was 99 all the way down to AA.

davecrazy posted:

There are like 2-3 99s per team, then several legends listed in the 90s. A look at the top 15 rated Cowboys:

1. Larry Allen - 99
2. Bob Lily - 98
3. Roger Staubach - 98
4. Emmitt Smith - 98
5. Randy White - 97
6. Troy Aikman - 97
7. Tony Dorsett - 96
8. Michael Irvin - 96
9. Bob Hayes - 95
10. Demarcus Ware - 95
11. Dez Bryant - 94
12. Darren Woodson - 93
13. Herschel Walker - 93
14. Jason Witten - 93
15. Troy Smith - 92


It seems like every team has about this many people rated in the 90s. Loads of legends ranging from Red Grange to Kellen Winslow. If you guys have a more preferable roster, let me know.

Once again, sorry for simming the draft. I couldn't stop it, tried quitting out and rejoining, but it kept going.

Trading with the computer is ON. So feel free to set up trades to make up for my gently caress up.

I simmed to the 1st week of the season (injuries were off in the preseason). I am turning them back on as of week 1.

Week 1:

Vikings (Dubious) vs Rams (CPU)
Raiders (mdubb354) vs Jets (nasty-niss)
Ravens (Paperback75) vs Bengals (CPU)
Buccaneers (TPotts87) vs Panthers (CPU)
Cowboys (Havoc904) vs 49ers (CPU)
Giants (dpcv8) vs Lions (brb_alcohol)


Sorry once again for the gently caress up.
