Going backward to move forward. It's probably the best way to explain what leagueManager creator Derek Adams has done to help create a more in-depth Online Franchise mode experience for users in Madden 11.

A third-party tool created by an avid Madden fan, leagueManager is more like a next-gen League Daddy website tailored just for Madden 11. By using leagueManager, you enable your Madden Online Franchise to incorporate free agency, player contracts, a salary cap, holdouts and even Pro Bowl nominations. Simply put, an actual in-depth offseason comes into play with leagueManager in tow.

In fact, you can actually do even more than what has been listed, but the point is simple: leagueManager equals more depth for those gamers out there who expected more from the Online Franchise mode in Madden 11.

"Once I heard no updates were being made [to the Online Franchise mode], I decided to take a custom approach for myself," said Derek Adams. "I built a (primitive in comparison) tool for managing my league's salary cap and player contracts. After a few people approached me about getting it set up for their league, I expanded it and made it possible for anyone to create a league instance."

WOW, good work.. I may actually pick Madden back up now. It's been in the dog house since 2k11 and SVR11

WOW. Great site! I set my league up with it already. Now how to I get my members to join and be able to manage their teams?

That is awesome. Well done! Props to you, Derek. Tools like this for Madden, and PocketScout for NCAA are what really makes me appreciate how lucky we have it here at OS. Not to mention the incredible work done on 2KShare for 2K11 and the slider work done for baseball and all the other sports titles we so enjoy!!!

Good tool.

We use it in our Madden league.

Embarrassing that EA Tiburon, with all of its manpower, tools and resources, is outdone by a single independent programmer.
