The LS position has to be either a C or TE really. I honestly can't understand why EA Sports doesn't add this player position to the game. I mean they have this position in the depth charts but we have to use someone else on the team. This is an important position for all NFL teams.

The main attribute rating for this position is "Pass Block" because they essentially are playing only on these type plays(punting & kicking). Also, the "Awareness" attribute will affect the ratings more too. The other attributes like speed,agility, and acceleration aren't as important but still need to be close enough.

It's hard to create a good rating for the LS position but it can be done. The problem is that we have the LS coming from various positions in the NFL but if you don't use either C or LS then the rating is gonna be too low in Madden. Geez EA! Help us out by getting this position into the game please. Thanks!

Yeah, and to add to this, most teams don't have their LS do anything other than that. Add to that the fact that EA generally leaves them out of the game, which is what they have done for the past 3 years with the Texans' LS of the past 4+ years Bryan Pittman.

They have not put long snappers in Madden ever. It's not a regular position but it's there in the depth charts & every team has a designated LS. It's time for EA to get this player position into the game now. Their roster requirements for Madden are shameful really. They don't match NFL rules. We are the ones left hanging in the dark to try & fix them & not EA Sports. Geez!
