Franchise Update Thread

Post your updates about how your Franchise is doing, any big trades or signings etc.

I simmed the first year of my Rams franchise to get to the offseason. I finished 5-11, good enough for the 5th pick of the draft. I traded that pick and Laurent Robinson to the Eagles for their 8th pick and a linebacker. I picked up fake FS Ben Wells who turned out to be a 78. I thought it worked for me, as I needed more depth on the defensive end, and already had 6 WR on the roster.

So, what about you?

Running a Lions chise in week #5 sitting at (2-2) with losses to GB and Min.

Week 4 Javid Best took over starting spot from Kevin Smith after failing to produce anything and Jahvid blew up going for 200+ yard rushing and caught a couple. Stafford is looking good with 7TDs and 4INTs throwing for 1000+ yards already, Ndamukong Suh is as pormised and is holding it down in the middle...

I restarted my bills franchise and moved a lot of players year 1

Out-whitner, lynch, stroud, schobel, evans

In- mack, davis, hughes, morgan, clausen

I went back to a 4-3 with hughes manning one spot he is monstertown in this game 12.5 sacks as a rookie.

I didn't add any fa and hit paydirt with every single draft pick, got my franchise lt, a monster guard, fb, 2wr, 2de, cb, fs, olb all A potential one de was an 89 as a rookie

Rookie wr shawn nelson rookielt levitre mack wood davis josh morgan clausen rookie fb spiller

On d rookie de kyle williams dwan edwards hughes maybin poz rookie olb mckelvin byrd rookie fs rookie cb

Depth is an issue and I need better dts and a better olb but I'm in year 2 and 3-0

Using my Broncos, in year 1. Haven't made any offseason moves that Denver didn't make in real life. Playing on all madden and starting Tim Tebow. So far I'm 5-0, and the only real close game was vs Indy but I still won by 10.

playing as the chiefs on all madden and well im 8-2 too easy

Seahawks

I'm grooming Dennis Dixon to be the new QB. Right now I'm playing Hasselbeck but looking for any excuse to put Dixon in.

Traded for T.J. Ward from the Browns and released a few bad contracts like Julius Jones, Chris Cole, and Chris Baker

Other than that, I got my base lineup. 0-1 after playing the 49ers and losing in overtime. I went for it on 4th and 5 from my own 25 and failed. I made the risk just because I kinda wanted to lose to get a higher draft pick at the end of the year. Tate and Butler are tearing it up in the slots.

I like the Eagles playbook, it's got some Mike Vick plays which I'll use with Dixon, and plenty of creative pass plays.

Right now I'm just fiddling with the sliders trying to get an ideal experience, while I'm improving at the game as well.

Playing a Packers chise, I traded for Dez Bryant since Driver is on the verge of retirement. Then I wound up with an 89 rated WR out of the draft.

I also noticed the Bears traded away Cutler and wound up with Tebow....

What did you trade for Dez Bryant? I'm curious......

EA needs to make franchise players un-trade-able. Yeah, I know, Donovan McNabb.

BUT, I have not seen a team trade there 1st rd pick (insert player name) of that year to another team for a player or a draft pick.
