Re: Madden NFL 25 Rosters Available Now - Week 1

if they would let me keep them on the team and designate a P.squad yes but the cuts don't allow that so whats the point in CFM?. There is no practice squad

the point I gave u i'd rather have real players on PS instead of some fake player or rookie that's in the ccm that's put on your team when u have to do the cut down's. I like my season to be real as possiable I don't want some nobody rookie that's not even in real nfl on my team just because ea thought it be cool to add them to your team just so u have to do cuts.

I absolutely agree with you. Im just not into all the extra stuff CFM has to offer bro I wanna kind of bypass all the cuts by starting with a roster that is essentially already cut down to 53 so that when I get to cut day I could advance without having the AI cut players that in real life would NOT be getting cut.

Why are all the players on the roster 99 POT?? How does Madden 25 progress players? Does it?

Edit: I had a brain fart moment. I remember the whole arcadey progression deal now...

CT,
Just so I understand this, I remember last year when starting a franchise the game would add guys (UDFA's) to the roster so all teams would start with 70 players and then you would go through 2 cut weeks to get down to 53. But this year you can start with a 53 man rosters right off the bat and no fake guys will be added. It would just bypass those 2 cuts days because the roster already has the 53 players? Correct?

Thanks

The game is playing better with this roster update, I was playing on all madden default sliders

Re: Madden NFL 25 Rosters Available Now - Week 1

why is Tyler Wilson still on the Raiders......wow

The better question is, why is Matt McGloin not on the Raiders? practice squad players being in the game is cool and all, but what would be even better is if guys on the 53-man roster were in the game

Re: Madden NFL 25 Rosters Available Now - Week 1

Well after looking at these, I don't understand how hard it is to just look at the 53 man rosters that are published and stable, and then match them.

For instance, why is Shayne Graham still on the Browns, and Cundiff wasn't signed to them?

I mean it was easy enough for me to take care of, but when you have the full backing of NFL.com, which has right on their website all of the rosters, how hard is it if you are the manager of this game?

Anyway, not a huge deal, more of just awe struck by the mediocre job done.

Donny Moore stated their was an issue with the injured reserve list and hopes it can be fixed in the next roster update. And this is why EA was voted the worst company. How can they drop the ball again on something a lot of people depend on to start their season. GOD I MISS 2K FOOTBALL!!!!!!!

Re: Madden NFL 25 Rosters Available Now - Week 1

EA have deleted 300 players from the roster with this update, including the likes of Vince Young. The best Free Agent QB is now David Carr, followed by Tebow.



There are about 10 extra players on there.

Are they trying to make the free agent pool as thin as possible or what? They should have only removed retired players from the roster and not players who are still free agents. If I recall, they did this same BS last year but they added the players back to the free agent pool a few updates later.

It may have something to do with lazy *** EA not updating preexisting injuries from last year.

Start a CFM and turn pre-existing injuries on. Go to injury report for the Ravens and you will see Suggs listed with broken ribs. That is what they used last year when he had the acl (or was it achilles?) injury. EA never bothered to update it for this year.

Small in the grand scheme of things, but still unacceptable. Another case of EA cutting corners. Remember how they claimed they completely rewrote the code for connected careers? That is a lie and you can tell by looking at the player card to see their draft spot.

Re: Madden NFL 25 Rosters Available Now - Week 1

The Bears are missing rookie DE #91 David Bass (who WAS in the initial roster and for some odd reason removed all together??)

They are also STILL missing rookie CB #25 C.J. Wilson out of NC State

Both players have made the team Wilson was with the team all camp and Bass was a pick up off of the Raiders.

Also if all practice squad players are supposed to be there the Bears are also missing rookie UFA CB Demontre Hurst out of Oklahoma who is on Chicago's practice squad.

To his credit Donny Moore did add Michael Ford and Zach Minter and he moved Isaiah Frey to the depth chart BUT in the wrong position as he beat out Zach Bowman for the nickel corner spot after Kelvin Hayden's injury. I tweeted Moore about this telling him Frey had won the job but I guess he's not buying it. lol

With all the issues with the roster updates year after year you would think EA would get Mr. Moore some assistance with putting them together. A Czar he is not. It's only my wet dream that creating accurate rosters for 32 teams was my full-time job for which im sure I was getting paid handsomely for. I think I would pay excruciating attention to detail to make sure I didn't upset my bosses both in the madden community as well as at EA. I wonder if these rosters are the mans ONLY responsibility?

yup only 1 cut at the end of preseason to get to 53 man roster. If your team already is trimmed down to 53 your all set from what I've seen.
