Well, when you figure that the Titans already have an outstanding line and piss poor receiver core, one would assume if you're giving them free players, an offensive guard isn't that one. Bruce Matthews is a hell of a guard, but who are you going to sit for him? In every Madden 10 franchise I did, both of my offensive guards after the first season were damn near a 90 overall. My top receiver? Less than an 85... I mean, a CB and WR would of been a much better choice.

Were you trying to match the HoFers with their former teams?

Yes I made an effort to put the Hall Of Famers on their original team where possible. Of course for some teams like the Bears and the Cowboys there were more then two worthy players.

So I did my best to spread out the talent and get the best players in the league, no situation of course as you can read above was perfect...

Thanks for following...
