Coach XP Boost Packs too expensive

Giants' GM Jerry Reese was berated at the start of last season for letting some big-name players get away and instead relying on the system. A season later, he has a Super Bowl ring and looking through his drafts, the WORST draft he had was when he picked one of the top receivers in the league and a LT who (if he can stay healthy) is the unquestioned starter for the Giants. He's been the GM since 2008 and his amazing drafts haven't really been noticed until now (which of course makes sense considering it takes time for the players to develop or fall apart).

And a LT/RT pack, rather than having to buy a LT then a RT By my 4th+ season of CCM I won't be able to afford all the packs and I don't think that's right. Not to mention I'd like by the 4th or 5th year to have the scouting package as well, and that is also very expensive.

Enjoy this set up. It going take time to be a legacy coach

i bought all the boost packs by the beginning of my second season. i think they could be to cheap or the price is right. seems to me you just want to boost ovr and complain.

Scouting package is a waste. 2,000 scouting points a week is plenty. There is no need to scout every single player. I scout 3-4 players around my first 4 draft picks then just sort by intangibles on the unscouted be usually 5-7th rounders in Madden never become starters. I still have a few thousand left when I'm done scouting.

Spending QB XP boost is pointless to me as well. I buy for what position needs progression faster. For example with the Saints, I buy RE and C to boost Martez Wilson and my drafted C.

you know how many defensive starters i got in the 5-7 rounds that are all 84 and up, you can find the some of the best players late your philosophy is wrong, but i do agree that the scouting pack is useless you get more than enough to scout the whole draft if you wanted to.

What's the best to draft? 5,000 is way to much to find out what type of player he I'll be. What's your approach to getting good players in draft

draft everyone by awr its only 25 points and it means the probably have high skills or once you get high skills there ovr skyrockets,

so scout the awr and if it is a b or higher scout some other traits and the fit your scheme and Boom you find the best players, i never drafted a bust in 5 seasons , i leave the draft with the best draft every year.

Awareness is 100 not 25.

They recently changed it.
