How's Your Franchise Going: Madden 20 Edition

[franch1se]

Just lost my first game of the season to the Colts 33-21. Luck was on God Mode...I need to find a good slider set because this was ridiculous

1-3 so far with a Redskins rebuild on all madden. Its been wild but challenging patriots up next cant wait

I managed consecutive OT wins vs. IND and CHI, somehow, to land at 3-2. I'll take that any day!

Question re: roster stuff: Rodney Hudson is up and wants 10-11M/yr. over 3. I'm not inclined to pay him but I hate letting a guy like that walk, and I won't trade him in-season if I'm competitive, which I currently am. Do you pay this guy or let him walk?

I started my "temp" franchise with the Eagles until updated rosters/sliders come out. Just playing on Pro right now to get controls down since I haven't played Madden in 9+ months.

I played two games in the preseason, made some trades for guys I would have cut anyways (Jalen Mills for a 5th, Smallwood for a 6th, and Will Tye for a 7th). Devonta Freeman got cut by the Falcons so I signed him b/c that was too good to be true.

My first game of the regular season I beat the Skins 20-14 BUT Wentz goes down for 7 weeks with a dislocated hip . I traded two late picks in 2020 and 2021 and Corey Clement to Colts for Jacoby Brissett. Lost to the Falcons 34-27 (Matt Ryan was was like 32-35 350+ yds...I need sliders!). Then I beat the Lions 27-13.

I signed him but he wasn't asking for that much in my game.

Good argument for Hudson, and man Franchise, I wish he were asking for 8.5 instead of 11.5.

I do think he's a worthy player for sure, but I also think we have a weird cap setup where we're paying Brown a king's ransom and our top 6 players are making like $75M in game. I'm locked into big contrasts for Brown & AB but may have some flexibility with Carr after this year. The question is whether it's best to use that flexibility to extend another veteran OL, which I could see doing, or to use the flexibility to save toward near-future extensions for the young core/a choice, young FA @ a premium position.

I love/hate being the Raiders in CFM, lol, due to their cap deal.

I wound up losing badly to HOU, making consecutive blowouts @ GB and @ HOU to bring me to 3-4. I have a home game vs. DET next that I desperately need to win to keep my hopes for the season alive.
