I've been asking about putting them on the regular rosters for a while now and haven't gotten a straight answer. I really hope you can but I doubt it

I did find this... from a games radar review.. so looks like yes!

Perhaps the most underappreciated feature in Connected Franchise is re-living the career of a historic player (and there is a healthy selection of them to choose from). Dropping Randall Cunningham into the modern-day Cleveland Browns as a rookie, for example, then using XP to increase his abilities as a season progresses is one of the hidden gems of Madden NFL 25.

• Barry Sanders

• Dan Marino
• Dave Casper

Decent. But lacking considering Madden 10 probably had twice as many. No Randy white? No Dorsett? No Ozzie Newsome? No Bo Jackson? Member Bo in Tecmo bowl?

Meh. Nice to see Marino and Cunningham tho.

That's just not enough players IMO especially if you love to play with classic teams and players all in one franchise mode together.

Also, I'm hearing EA only allows one player to be used in CCM per team.

You basically have to control all 32 teams and then import a different guy onto a team just to get most of them in CCM.

For all those hassle's I'd rather just wait for a Roster file with created players that allows us to use hundreds of older players all at one time this year with the new Roster share feature.

All you need is a guy who knows his stuff and assign good ratings because I'm pretty sure EA will rate all of those guys 99 overall with someone like Michael Irvin running around with 90+ speed......

Yeah, roster share the possibilities are endless. Should have classic teams in no time. Hope the commentators say some of the old names too.

I'm waiting with my fingers crossed for someone to make some classic rosters, especially 80s & 90s teams.
