The only downside is if the player accepts your offer right away and then your kinda stuck, but if you can get him a deal with a minimum signing bonus then you can deal him away to either a team that makes sense or his orriginal team without much of a salary cap hit.
This is true. While I've never really thought to use this strategy, it makes perfect sense since most times when I make a bid for a player I'm outbid the next day. Well, unless it likes a 70 rated player, but for sure on the top free agents.

Re: Franchise Still Broken

lol and this is what you get for getting the game early. The gaming GOD's frown upon horse assery and pompacity.

Re: Franchise Still Broken

I'm not suprised the least bit either. Thankfully, I plan on playing head coach this year to take care of my franchise needs. However, it is quiet sad that we have to purchase two seperate games (head coach and madden) to get a complete football exerience. EA disgusts me, yet I feel cornered into purchasing their game. Cruel World.

yeah i won't be buying this or NCAA for a while until they fix the unreal bugs in the games. i might rent them and play them some, but that will only be if they get good reviews by people.

right now, i don't even plan on renting them. ncaa is a joke, and madden has not been good for a while now.
