Which Madden NFL 18 GOAT Edition Player Should You Get?



Not sure which Madden NFL 18 GOAT edition player to get? Scott Cole aka Coltrane walks you through it.
  • Tom Brady - only if you're a pure pocket passer. Devin Wade from longshot has better mobility and throw on the run.
  • Barry Sanders - Great speed and elusiveness, but with Gamestop's Bo Jackson or so many elite RBs you'll be fine without him.
  • Jerry Rice - The real GOAT. He's a great WR but not top end speed and there's so many to choose from this year including Gamestop's Randy Moss and Doritos Calvin Johnson.* Colt Cruise from Longshot is a great option too.
  • Ray Lewis - My Pick because he's already at Top 10 MLB in the game on launch and he has the speed to be versatile against the passing game and running game.
  • Deion Sanders - If you have a second pick with the GOAT Edition plus the GOAT edition upgrade pack, go with Prime Time.* Most schemes you'll need 3 or 4 CBs anyway.* He also provides you with a valuable Kick Returner.

I still haven't picked. It's between Lewis and Sanders ....

How do or did people get to pick two

Bought another GOAT pack in the store. Only thing, not sure if you will be able to upgrade both down the line or just one of them.

I went with Deion Sanders, not only is he a shutdown corner but his punt return skills are pretty damn good.

Re: Which Madden NFL 18 GOAT Edition Player Should You Get?

Of course, now I'm already dumping my special players. At least while activating Chems does not incur a cap hit. All you get is credit for the team he plays for.

Like with Brady, if you combine him with two other Patriot players in the starting line up, you get a small boost. But with Alex Smith, I get the Chiefs boost, and a Move the Chains boost that bumps stuff like Catch in Traffic. They are small boosts, but increase with more players. Three is tier one. Six is tier two, and so on. They also stack. So right now I'm trying to maximize the boosts, which can boost player and team OVR, but not at a cap hit. Last year there was a cap hit for every Chem activated.

I went with Prime Time for the same reasons. It was between him and Barry Sanders, but I went with Deion because I thought he could have more effect on the game than Barry.

Prime Time is overhyped. Everyone thinks it's the cool pick I guess

Haven't had a chance to play with him, but the fact that he is a return beast, in a year when they game seems tuned to make it easier to run back kicks, it think he can have a bigger impact than the other guys. There is an advantage in having Elite returners as great regular position players.
