I don't know what Madden's CAP restriction limits are....but there are ways aroudn it like editing over scrubs in the free-agent pool and the active roster players

Then you can save CAP space when you need to create additional players for each team.

All I'm worried about is actual Player names, ratings, height/weight and uniform Numbers.

It won't be as easy as NCAA to just take the default rosters and edit over them but i'll make it work to the best of my ability

as in previous maddens u cant change their height and weight or skin tone, and im sure there is a cap limit but im not sure what it is. so i think the easiest way would be to just edit players already in the game that might closely match the player u are making, such as height weight, and of course u would want to get their skin tone correct. but i agree with your op in that this madden seems to finally have the gameplay really solid. it even resembles 2k in some aspects and is evident that they copied them in some things, but thats ok as long as they make a good game, and im glad that they brought back the player roles and added the new dpp feature as this helps make players alot more unique instead of just generic ratings. so a combination of skills/ratings seems to be the best way imo to rate players in a video game. im also a big historic roster guy so i would love to see these when youre done, however i play on the ps3.

There are work arounds my friend.

Dont let EA deter you I haven't. Player roles/traits are HIGHLY overated in my opinion as well. You can make individual players play like them selves without the involvement of player roles. It just take a balancing of ratings etc. Might be more work to some but if you end uo doing it right away it's already done

I want an all time roster PLay! get to it!

Yes Playmakers, you can start to roll on this roster. Can't wait along with everyone else.

playmakers, i would be very interested in how u plan on doing the ratings for these players. i have thought of a few methods, such as using old madden ratings and another one where u could use stats to convert into ratings but that can be tricky. so just thought i would pick your brain a little on this as i would be very interested in your input. thank you.

Old Madden ratings (of course some of those ratings are way too high) but scaled back to match physical and raw attributes that are more realistic

So there won't be many RB's with a exaggeretad 80 strenght....Jim Brown might be one of the few exceptions. I won't inflate any players speed, agility or accleration rating just to make his overall go up high. If he was slow he was slow that is why they have other ratings to capture a players tendency like Emmitt Smith he will not be getting a 90 speed just because it's Emmitt Smith the guy only ran between 4.5-4.7

Player comparison charts/tendencies much like the way i do with NCAA Football....I will take a player in today's game and match his skills and physical ability to a older generation player.

and i refer to a few resources that help me capture a player's raw attributes

Joe Namath, QB, Alabama

"Most pundits agree Namath is an absolute steal at this spot. Some scouts rate him as an absolute sure thing, equal to or even better than John Elway as a quarterback prospect. At 6-foot-2, 200 pounds, Namath has a prototypically powerful arm, but he did suffer a significant knee injury as a senior."

and of course I'm sure most die hard fans followed NFL's networks list of top 100

If you dont wanna buy the ps3 game and spend the time redoing those rosters id be glad to help with making the ps3 one

I usually spend most of my time messing around with QBs, and while we've had some great ones in Minnesota the three who I'd have to recommend the most is #1 Fran Tarkenton (obviously) #2 Tommy Kramer and for the backup, I'd have to say Wade Wilson would be it considering he nearly got the Vikes into the Super Bowl in 1987. Also for Running back, if you're doing 3 starters, Peterson, Robert Smith, and Chuck Foreman. If you need a backup quality RB, my personal favorite would be Leroy Hoard, who was a great power back in his own right.
