lol you already have like 3/4 of a team in MUT 17 already :v:

QB: Tom Brady
HB: Marcus Allen
WR1: Odell Beckham
WR2: Corey Coleman
TE: Rob Gronkowski
LT/RT: Laremy Tunsil

SS: Laywer Milloy
CB: Eli Apple
ROLB: Shaq Lawson (lol, he was cheap and I had like 6 of his pieces from packs)
MLB: Daaron Lee
RE: DeForest Buckner

Oh, and I maxed out the loyalty vouchers (10) and get the bonus vouchers for meeting the secret pack opening/games played milestones. The rookie cards wont be anything special, I'm sure they'll all start with low 70s OVR cards.

Still, 5 elites out of the box isint bad. Also one of the voucher sets will be an notrade/nosell "Elite Offense Pack + Elite Defense Pack".

So that's two more base elites. 7 Elites day one before I open a single pack.

I do not wear this mask to protect me. I wear it to protect you from me.

I have a newborn and a PS3 so (at the moment) I'm not upgrading to Madden 17. Once I get Harrison Smith I'll have a pretty solid mostly-Vikings defense. I don't expect Chad Greenway to get an upgrade so Shaq Thompson will have to do and then I'll worry about other pieces later. I wish they'd re-open the Gauntlets.

Any word if Best Buy will be doing the boosted trade in for Madden16 in the weeks before the Madden 17 release? I've done it the past 2 years or so where you get something like $20 for the game and an extra $10 for Madden 17 plus your GCU bonuses. Just havent seen those deals advertised in a while.

I haven't seen anything yet. I have an order in already through Amazon but I've been debating cancelling it to do a trade in with Best Buy or Gamestop or whoever.

12th in DVOA only 6 TD, buttttttt

Olsen was 17th in DVOA so LOL who knows

My point stands tho. Madden rankings are silly and based off reputation and feelings. IE Deangelo Hall in every madden ever; or Suggs, played less than 1 game last year, 90 ovr

Is the game going to do some ratings penalty for me putting Jalen Ramsey at SS in base? I can handle it telling me he's a 47 ovr SS but if that makes his AWR go to 20 then gently caress this game

Trading still in, challenges made less annoying (they can end when you achieve whatever the objective is instead of always having to play out the game I guess), chemistry reworked.


e: Huh, the new chemistry system shows exactly which attributes its boosting and by how much, that's neat.
