This created playbook would have the same organizational capacity as the default Madden playbooks (i.e. formation groups, then various personnel sets and alignments in each formation; ex. Shotgun category, with Shotgun 4WR, 5WR, Dual HB Backfield, etc.). Formations should be adjustable (i.e. the player should be able to adjust formations at his discretion, both with personnel and with alignments). Individual plays would be customized by assigning predetermined routes (using routes EA has in the game) and and depth factor to determine how long of a route it is (i.e. 5-yard out vs. 15-yard out, and so forth). There should be a flag on the quarterback to designate whether the play is a playaction play or not. The capacity for other complex actions (i.e. flea flickers, end-arounds, toss-passes, read option, read option pass, bootlegs, rolling the pocket, fake handoff then toss) should also be present. Finally, there should be a flag in all modes that would allow for custom playbooks to be banned from online play. It should default to Off for Ranked Games. Not sure how high this is on the EA totem pole of stuff to get into Madden, though; I'd gladly buy it as DLC if it wasn't included in the game outright if it was as full-featured as I describe above. Thoughts?

That will lead to exploits online ; IMO, it's best not to allow the user to change a players location in the formation or the blitz angle on defense.
