Esp. since they offer your XP retirement packages to purchase / use, that...well...you can't use...because you don't know...

Interesting that I'm / we're STILL finding things to add to "The List" at this late date...

Where do you find him? Which draft in Madden 13?

Guy has become my featured back pretty cool to see an undrafted rookie turn out to be a real steal.

The same? Where can you get him?

He's my backup to Kaep. I have only used him a few times but he's certainly worth it. I don't bother with any other "name" backups though I do like trying to find UDFAs who are useful.

Where do you get these guys?

Since this thread got bumped up, much thanks on the Cameron tip...

Since I pulled him back out of the FA pool, he's been either Pro Bowl or Pro Bowl level, despite not having his ratings go up much...

Quite the reach on this guy!

Ballard also is a steal...his INJ / TGH issues aren't much of a problem as a 2nd or 3rd TE and he's a great blocker and solid as a pass catcher...

Ben Watson is a 6'3 WR who is a 69 ovr but he has 99 speed 96 accel, 81 catching and 90 catch in traffic. I believe he was an UDFA in draft 14

Not just saying this because I'm a Jets fan, but Shonn Greene is a beast... I shed off so many tackles with him, it isn't even funny..

He's not great or anything, but Marvin McNutt has consistently found himself a roster spot on my team because for a wide receiver he's a tremendous run blocker.

In my CCM I've progressed his route running and awareness to the point where he's a legitimate third option as a possession receiver, though he's never going to be a guy to stretch the field.
