Why Can't We Trade Kickers and Punters?

If you allow something like that which will never happen in real life, you might as well add robots and aliens as players too. We are already allowed to create a player with no limits on their attribute points and add in HOF players, that is the unrealistic part for ya. You have to stop somewhere. We are talking about punters and kickers here, if you are really needing a great punter or kicker there are other issues with your gameplay. Im not the greatest player but I don't see how a kicker can change my game from good to great.

why does it matter to you how others choose to play their game?

EA please don't read this thread...Please send your time more wisely on needed features and enhancements unlike...kicker and punter fair trade logic.


Oh I almost forgot...just my 2cents.

Its doesn't matter the point and question is why you can't make a trade with kickers and punters. I showed with my link it has happened in real life, but the game give you so many things that are in fact unrealistic. I believe that EA wanted the game to be somewhat sim so they chose to prevent things that would change that. I guess I'm saying if they add it cool but we should be pushing for the game to be more realistic than latter. To each his own

ohhh i thought you were saying it was a dumb idea to even put in the game because it wasn't realistic...my bad

i personally don't care about the matter. But I am all for giving users all options possible to make the game more enjoyable for themselves.

I want it implemented because I use the Bills in Franchise mode and Lindell has a weak leg. In a dome setting a few times I attempted a 47, 48 and 50 yd fg and each one was shot except for the 47 with hit the cross bar and bounced back. At first I didn't know this trade wasn't allowed so I offered Lindell, 1st round pick next year and Lynch for a rookie kicker with much better power and just a couple points less accuracy than Lindell but its not allowed. All the kickers on the FA list are worse than Lindell so I'm without a kicker with power. Guess I'll never get the 60 yd fg achievement

Why is everyone focused on this? In Madden, 2 CPU controlled teams can't execute a trade with each other. This is the first thing that needs to be fixed!!! Otherwise trading is a way to have an unfair advantage in a user controlled offline dynasty.
