Best stats to increase with ur EXP points?

[OakRaiders228]

Just overall for players and their positions what should you raise?

I only upgrade Throw short, mid and deep with my QB and Throw power sometimes haha

But for WR, DE, LB, CB what do u guys think is the best stats to raise?

Mostly for my DBs I raise their Man to man or Zone coverage thats it haha

Strength is surprisingly cheap for LBs. I hate seeing any LB on my team with less than 80 STR. I spend most of my DE, DT, and LB points on block shed and either finesse or power (whichever they excel at.)

Does strength actually do anything for LBs tho? lol I feel like there are some useless stats with players haha

I guess it depends on what you use your LBs for. I like blitzers and run stoppers to be strong.

WR: Catch, Catch in traffic, Spectacular Catch, RTE. Speed just costs way too much for it to be an upgrade I want.

DE: Block Shed, tackle, finesse/power move.

LB: Zone coverage, tackle, pursuit. I like run stopping LBs along with the the zone coverage for some pass plays.

CB: Man Coverage, press, zone coverage. Can't really remember the other stats.

Awareness for every position as well. If it is too low, it's an easy and cheap boost.

Throw power is the most important for QB's. ( IMO ) .
Just based off the difference in 80 throw power to my now 93 . Big difference .

The problem is it just costs so much. You can improve accuracy 2-3 points that would give you one THP. If you're trying to focus on one of the accuracies, like SAC, then I think putting 3 points into that is just as important as 1 into THP.

Disagree . If you don't have the power to hit the wide out in stride then the accuracy won't matter because corners are so fast in madden they pick off passes without the zip .

^^^ I agree with this 100%. I traded for Matt cassel and he has decent accuracy but he throwing power is not good for my liking. Corner routes and outs take entirely too long.....

Well it really depends on how much THP is needed for the type of QB. Does a West Coast type QB really need a 95+ THP? Not really, but sure it still needs to be a bit higher. If they throw middle to deep all the time, then yes THP is very valuable.

I play very West Coast like, only curls, slants, in and outs. THP, while important, isn't really my biggest priority with Andy Dalton who has a THP of 86. I don't really know the difference between a THP of 83 and 96. I'm sure it's great though, I just don't have enough games with different QBs to compare.

Along these lines, do u guys typically go stats first, or save up for the 10-20k things like Big Hitter or Consistency?

Good question. I was wondering the same.

Re: Best stats to increase with ur EXP points?

I spend a lot of points on speed on offense and defense; sure it's expensive, but it's more than worth it. A linebacker with 90+ spd is invaluable, and a db with high 90s spd can cover anyone. I even spend some of my DEs' points on spd, cause a fast DE is much more likely to hit the qb before he manages one of those absurd throws for incompletion that should be a fumble. I have also found that pmv is much more useful than fmv, especially when coupled with high str and block shed.

I play as the Colts so I save up all my XP on Luck to purchase the Clutch Trait. After I saw who Tebow was in the 2 minute offense down by a FG I was like I gotta have it.
