re: Madden 17 Franchise Stories

How can you make a draft class??

I really can't wait to bring fournette into the fold too. He's already created on operation sports

sounds nasty!!

Whats the name for those rosters? May plug em in

What rosters? You can't download rosters onto madden. You have to create fournette yourself. They just have the ratings and stuff to create him on OS.

but I signed Matt Flynn (keeping the LSU theme alive) and he filled in for 4 weeks

Last year in madden 16, I picked up Flynn in my first preseason as the saints. And in like my first year, Brees got injured in the second to last game of the season and Flynn came in and played decent the rest of the game and played well for the last game. We finished 13-3. And Brees was gonna be out for the playoffs and super bowl. But Flynn carried us to the super bowl
I did have fournette at running back to be honest.

I hated how they got rid of the "Be A Pro" feature in last year's madden. Did they bring that back? I liked playing with just one player trying to be the best

They didn't


You mean to tell me you went a whole year without realizing you could control just one single player and have a career mode with him??

Started a franchise with the Saints (my first problem I know).. Started out 2-0 in two close games. Third game I lost to the Falcons because they held the ball for most of the 4th. I realized after a few games I needed to turn off the quick clock and turn up quarter lengths. I need to look into the sliders too to get more realistic.


Only thing that was noteworthy was in the 4th game against the chargers they blocked two punts (no other punts blocked through 6 games).. One for TD one for safety. Obviously they killed me. I'm 3-3 through 6 but the stats have been extremely off.

I think when I get the game, my first franchise will be a pseudo expansion team with the Saints. Like I keep Brees, Thomas, Breaux, and Anthony and replace everyone else with shitty free agents and try to build.

Holding off on Franchise until I can get a roster update. Saints roster is missing guys like Erik Harris, Ken Crawley, Tommylee Lewis.

Made a bunch of trades. Traded for Phillip Rivers, Piere Garçon, and Navarro Bowman in year one. Then dealt Garçon, K'Waun Williams, and a 2nd for Alshon Jeffrey. I dealt Mingo to the Pats too.

Drafted a 6'4" CB and a 6'4" SS. The CB has slow development though. Then floated out two seconds and a third for Chris Harris and Denver accepted it In madden 16 you couldn't get an elite CB for two 1sts unless they were older than 32. I try to do fair-ish deals 99.9% of the time.

Should be a playoff contender in a tough division. Our major weekness is pass rushing. Our OLB's are still young and needing development. Capable but they're not much better than a replacement level player.

I'd also suggest turning up your XP sliders to 150-175 on most everything. I have an old QB so I'm not sure there. My OL got very little development. Cameron Erving got one upgrade on the season. Felt like a wasted year.
