Does realism bother you when choosing a team for CFM?

[whosgotcha]

I usually take the Jets. And generally, they have been flawed so it helps to keep the goal of rebuilding and restoring real lol

I usually leet the CPU do a complete fantasy draft and just pick a random team before the draft. Sometimes I get an aging QB or a young one. Totally random.

I always do my saints and well, we all see their not great, but young defense and im liking where my sliders are, im 5-3 so far dang brees got injured for 8 weeks so I needed to find another QB aj McCarron is my starter for now, might keep him seeing as how hes young and not too bad

You could always sim a few years ahead and hope the cpu makes bad decisions for a good team...

Ultimate rebuild: take any team, cut every player and clear cap penalties. (Make up something in your head, team caught in massive ball deflating scandal ect.) Then sign all free agents outside of the top 5 at their position. Usually takes at least 3 years to be solid

Usually i choose a team and edit all the players to 40 years old so they retire after the first season and frame it like a "We Are Marshall" rebuild/ storyline.

For me, it's all about your enjoyment. I have no problem taking an existing team and redoing their roster to put them in the state I want them to start with. I get the most enjoyment out of a team that I like. But that is just me. I think it is an individual decision. No right or wrong answer.

in almost 26 years of playing madden, i've never played a game as any team other than the niners. always pick them for my CFM.
