Thomas (87) 26 yrs old, A potential and a 4th round pick They recieved: ROLB K.Misi (77) 24 yrs old, B potential and a 2nd round pick I have 2 very good, young CBs already in T.Porter (88) and E.Wright (86) but we all know how much players pass online. I also have DeMarcus Ware (94) who is 29 yrs old and Brad Jones (73) 25 yrs old and B potential on the OLB positions with Timmons in the middle so I still have strong LBers.....you guys think that was a good trade? We are in the 2nd season, but I just took over the team so I havent been through a draft yet and know really what the picks are worth.

You should be arrested for robbery. Great fleece job.

NO NO NO to replacing a 94 ovr CB that's 25 years old. If you need a reason for his existence, check the opposing WR stats sheet. If their stud WR is consistently down the charts, that's because your CB's blocking the pass again, and again, and again... meaning you don't need to double-cover them all the time. And he's young... he'll be blocking WRs for years.fficeffice" />>>

A better way to get a great WR is to trade for your 1 and 4 draft picks. Keep the ovr high as possible to find the best WR, and if nobody offers, just lower the ovr a point at a time until you start getting offers. Then pick the best youngest player you can.>>

The only time I trade away A-pot young players is when I simply cannot get them to sign for reasonable money. In my franchises Mebane ALWAYS insists on a minimum 7 year, $80+ million contract, and in all the franchises I’ve started between Madden 10 and 11 I’ve got him to re-sign just once. Knowing he’ll likely bolt the end of his contract I always trade him away for a draft pick.

Is that you Josh McDaniels? After seeing McDaniels trade away Pro Bowl QB Cutler and Pro Bowl WR Brandon Marshall, I wouldn't hold that against McDaniels that he would also trade away a 25 Year Old CB.
