Madden 16 Expansion Team Guide

I have had a couple people make cases on Arian Foster could be on the list. But I leave that up to the user. In a way I would agree he fits some of the perimeters

In those cases, whenever I'm considering better players, I always try to think "If I was playing with this team, would I give up this player for free? Do I have better players in this position? Does he have a big salary I would like to cut?"

If I answer no to any of those questions, he doesn't go on the list.

No one's going to arrest you if you didn't follow every rule we do I have my own house rules that are very strict, but that's just because I like it and enjoy it that way but that doesn't mean it's for everyone.

Thanks for the idea. After watching the video on the jerseys I think that I am going to go with the Chicago Blues.

On a side note doing this with armor and swords sliders are legit!!

C Holmes 71 ovr
DT Williams 71 ovr
DT Jones 71 ovr

2015 Re-Draft
Round 1 - HB Gurley
Round 2 - WR DGB
Round 3 - WR Lockett
Round 4 - RG Jackson
Round 5 - QB Hundley
Round 6 - Kept DT Bennett
Round 7 - LG Collins

Free Agency
Since I was under my 30 by 2 I decided to use these 2 slots to pick up 2 extra free agents
TE - Leonard 66 ovr
TE - Lyerla 66 ovr
FB - Pryor 74 ovr
WR - Hurns 73 ovr
DT - Still 73 ovr

ROLB - Freeney 80 ovr
K - Potter 62 ovr *I didn't count my K or P against my 5 FAs*
P - Malone 66 ovr

Everyone else I just filled in the FA pool with sub 70 ovr players. The team came in at 68 ovr. Thoughts?

Really like it very similar to my current team. Only main difference is I went blane gabbert at qb. do me a favor and look at his stats

Also a huge player for me so far has been sean commings CB in the f/a I believe or cheifs depending on roster you use. Check his stats out also he is shut down for me right now

Thanks for the tip, I will definitely look into those guys. Keep me posted on your seasons and off seasons. I will be curious the moves you make vs the moves I make and how our teams turn out and how long it takes to make the playoffs/win a superbowl. Just curious what offensive and defensive schemes do you go with?
