CPU's Trade Logic is Al Davis like

[JWO35]

Usually Madden's Trade logic, isn't the best....but my goodness! I planned on getting rid of Kevin Smith (80 HB, Detroit) since they drafted Jahvid Best. I manage to get the Radiers to trade Tyvon Branch(86ovr), 5th rd, and that Scott guy (77ovr OLB)
Then, I decided to sign Kevin Mawae(83ovr C). When my C got healthy again I put him on the block, guess what I got offered? Elvis Dumervil(93 ovr) and Mike Sims-Walker(85 ovr).
Anyone else getting this? And can they fix this Al Davis trade logic with a patch.

I'll hate to see what I'll get if I put Calvin Johnson on the block(maybe Peyton Manning and a 1st)

Havent attempted any trades in my Falcons chise yet. The computers trade logic was decent last year but not anywhere near perfect. I hope its not as bad as you say it is. There is a simple solution though: House Rules. If you play sim football, you wouldnt be signing a Center just to trade him away anyways.

Dumervil for Mawae! Not good for sim players.
I don't trade much but I just keep it realistic myself. I know Dumervil would be tempting but he just signed a new contract and would be 99ovr at DE for the Lions so for realism sake don't do it.
MSW I would need to add a 3rd rounder. He's a good young reciever and Mawae is a 39 year old centre so he's worth nothing. Got have some dicipline playing Madden. Someone here said earlier it's like it tries to get you to cheat.

i traded kurt coleman (68 ovr) who was a late round pick for the eagles for taylor mays and a 5th. unrealistic. oh well i got taylor mays

[JWO35]

I was tempted to make that Dumervil trade but I didn't....I traded him for some young CB. But, the strange thing I'm seeing is that the CPU's team wouldn't give up a 1st round for Mawae, but would rather give up one of their best players...Both trades would be bad for the CPU but they would rather hold onto a question mark 1st rounder over their best player?(I think Dumervil is, it could be that LT)

I always control all 32 teams. That way you don`t have to worry about unrealistic trades, just make the real life trades with the teams.

If it's in the game, it's in the game!

Al Davis is in the game right? So he is in the game! *LOL*

I think the cpu overvalues draft picks, and undervalues certain positions. I had to trade Marshawn Lynch a 2nd and 3rd for Clausen
