Progressing Speed

Does anyone have a method to increase the speed of a player? I have noticed a cornerback's speed increase (only time I remember someone going from spd 90 to 99 over 2 seasons). Is CB the only position that increases speed or was that an arbitrary coincidence? I usually dont see my CBs get faster - just noticed that one player.

Thanks for the help - I am trying to bump a HBs speed (he is great, just cant bust big runs with 89 speed and I don't want to trade him).

It is kinda weird that you had a CB whose speed increased. Did you buy any DLC to get that? They said it was impossible for speed to increase in this game.

Re: Progressing Speed

Speed generally doesn't increase from what I've seen, just acceleration.

You also lose speed once your player hits a certain age.

Re: Progressing Speed

Actually you can increase a players speed rating during Franchise mode.

You have to hire a training staff .I usually get a trainning staff that increases the truckiing rating though.

I think certain coaches also have a speed increase.

Hope this helps
Later

Bingo - I double checked and my trainer gave SPD bonuses to my CBs. Wish the Madden dev team could put together a proper manual for their games.

Too Bad I have to wait another season to get the right trainer, hes going to be 26 already. I agree that trucking or elusiveness are more important, but this HB is mid to high 90s in everything but speed (its Sweetwater, the Sweetness clone).

Thanks for the help - I would have missed that.

Re: Progressing Speed

I had Jamrion Bellows progress to 99 in his 3rd year and Reggie Bush did too at 28. This is not from trainers but just a progression. I have no idea of why. Also I saw Dane Morrow THP went from 97-99 in his 3rd year too.

Is it possible the progression is based off of actual stats like someone said long plays=progression in speed?
