How is your franchise going? Madden 18

[GOATMoss84]

Started one with the Jets. Went 4-12(as did the Dolphins). I am excited to see how the draft goes. One of our needs is a QB(first need actually) but two of the QB's on the depth chart have 1-2 years experience and I feel like I don't really need to invest a first round pick for a QB.

Decided to shake it up this morning before work. Did a fantasy draft which i never do. I did the first 22 rounds then i simmed. Kinda happy with the results. I went kinda young, D heavy. Before i play my first game heres my team.

LA Rams Roster:

Offensive Starters:
QB:Mahomes
HB:Gordon
WR1:Jarvis Landry
WR2:Thielen
WR3:Chris Godwin (R)
TE:Gresham(might make a change here)
LT:Bolles
LG:Osemele(what a beast..)
C:Nick Martin or John Urschele
RG:Boone
RT:Gilbert(another beast)

Defensive Starters
LE:Ngakou
RE:Easley
DT:Collins or Sammie Hill
LOLB:Wilbur or March-Lillard in coverage situations
MLB:Kuechly and Kwon Alexander
ROLB:Houston
CBs:Rhodes/Lattimore/Cooper Sr
FS:Maurice Alexander
SS:Kam Chancellor

Key backups IMO
TE:Nick Boyle strong blocking stats, will fit in with the line and Melvin.
RB:Jamal Williams(R) may see some touches behind Melvin, similar stats for trucking, little stronger, and 1 better carry.

Dont have many other stand out back ups aside from on thr O line from CPU picks.

Fast and young on offense, strong on defense. One thing that might make me stronger is sliding Alexander to LOLB and switching to 4-3. Id get s good rush with him and houston off the edge and it would cover up my LOLB weekness. But, my coverage might suffer, only 1 strong CB with a decent CB2.

GAME 1 HERE I COME.

Haven't started yet but I have decided to do a Steelers franchise. Yes they are good, but they have plenty of old veterans at key positions that I will have to replace soon. Also I got to decide if I want to keep Le'Veon Bell at a high price. Game 1 against the Browns should be coming soon. Excited to get started.

If? Why would you not? Top 2 no debate and can catch. Unless you can spread that money for 2 stars hes worth every penny IMO

I have a hard time coming up with interesting "scenarios" to start a franchise with that keep me interested, so I'm gonna try something a little different. I'm a Falcons fan, but playing with Matty Ice for the last decade has gotten old, so here's my scenario:

Before the draft last year, Atlanta dealt Matt Ryan to San Francisco to be with Kyle Shanahan. Atlanta takes Watson with the #2 pick. Solomon Thomas falls to Kansas City, so Mahomes falls to Houston. Just gotta work out the trade particulars. Thoughts?

I haven't started my franchise yet. I can't settle on a team.
I either want to be a franchise with low expectations to rebuild (Bills, Rams and Dolphins are on my mind) or an almost there team (Raiders, Titans, Bucs and Eagles on my mind)

But I am open to suggestions if you guys have any advice
