Then I started really throwing to my other WR's (James Jones, Mohammaed Massaquoi), and they also caught only 1 in 5 balls. Then I traded Jackson for Andre Johnson. and he catches everything. It almost seems to me that something with the changed ratings are making WR's drop balls alot more. Is that possible? or is it because I'm playing on All-Pro, is that maybe why they are dropping more balls then normal?

My guess is that this is just how EA's gameplay is because EA is used to most WRs having 80+ catching stats so having stats that are below that may make the game play somewhat unrealistic. That was my only worry about these rosters.

I still can't load them onto my PS3. When I put them in the PS3 folder, onto the USB stick, and view the roster on the PS3, it shows up as corrupted. Any pointers?

I don't believe he actually studied each player and said Foster is a bad route runner. What was Foster's route running in EA's rosters?

What has EA's roster to do with it? He changed Foster's catch rating compared to what EA had. Compare other route ratings with other RBs. Why should Foster have such a low route number? Do you know? He was the second leading RB with receptions and first with yardage.

No mention of Lloyd and how he compares to Welker and Roddy White. My post above was not only about Foster. Lloyd should not have a higher catch rating than Welker and Roddy White to name a few.

I am finishing up my own roster, so what you guys do is no longer my concern.

That is pretty much what I did, I wanted to keep the main guys skills the same but the things they are not so good at will be dropped accordingly.

Theres this really cool feature I like to use in Madden and it is where you can edit the player attributes. Try it out and you can figure out all your problems with the ratings bud

What does Route running have to do with receptions and yardage? You can catch a lot of balls without being a great route runner. I was just saying what he did to the rosters he didn't specifically say "oh Foster sucks at route running so I'm going to make it low." He just adjusted it the same way I'm sure he adjusted some WRs that had lower route running stats.

The Lloyd, Welker, White stuff yea you're right Welker and White are better at catching, but he based these rosters off of EA's and my guess is EA had Lloyd's Catching higher then Welker and White. And again even you know that Catching is not the only stat that matters for a receiver.

Exactly!!! If a RB catches a screen pass, how great of route running is really that necessary. IMO, I would have it higher than 58, or have all the RB's that low, but it's Competitor's call since it's his rosters.
