I have a created team franchise I just started and am featuring Shagg Makino as my starting HB. He has great SPD, ACC, and TRK and I have been doing OK with him. Anyone else try this guy out? How does he progress? He is B potential but I might be able to work with that given his other ratings.

never heard of him

That's because he's not a real NFL player.

He and WR Joe Walsh are just some guys who won a charity event and got to have themselves put into the game with player ratings of their own choosing.

I've always wondered if he was real. I've never heard of him but I have signed him in a couple of my franchises, good pick up.

just drop em both down to 0 overall...they arent real players

I feel like an idiot now. Had no idea he's just some guy. That sucks because I was doing well with him but can't see keeping a guy who won a spot in the game.

I like to keep things realistic, so it feels cheap for me to use Makino in my franchise. I see him on the FA list, I need a running back, but I don't think I am going to take him.

Yea i hate when players are in the game and not real. LOL its funny when you think about it though, these people won a spot in the game only to have everybody taking them out of it.
