I love it this season.

My backup DT doesn't want 4,000,000 a year instead he wants $1,000,000.

It is much more accurate this season.

I think if a team offered T.O a million he would take it. No one wants him at this stage in his career.

That's just how it is. Madden hasnt done anything to make Free Agents ask for more. Even if they are Future Hall of Famers or Playmakers, if their coming off of the Market. Just how it is.

I like it... as opposed to years past when the CPU teams could sign them for that, and the user would always get screwed by them asking for outrageous money.

Let's be honest, if there is a veteran player who is still a free agent when the season rolls around, they are not going to ask for multi-million dollar deals anymore. They are going to sign a modest 1 year deal to show they can still play, and try and earn a bigger contract the next year.

Seems pretty realistic to me. (The $$$ amount is a little low, but it's better than Garrard getting a $4 million dollar contract in Week 2).

If you're doing it through the menu option called "Free Agents" its a bug or something. Everyone just accepts one year, chump change deals no matter who they are. The only way to get realistic contracts is to do it through 'Team Management', and pull the left trigger and select 'Free Agents' on the list above the Bears and below the Vikings. And yes the FA thing is broken. I released David Baas who had like a $6 million deal. I then resigned him through the FA menu option for around $500k. Its broken.

And Owens is an 85 in Madden. The fact no CPU team wants an 85 OVR WR for $850k in a video game, where there are none of the variables that there are IRL, no its not really realistic, sorry. TO in a vacuum at 85 OVR? He'd be the first guy taken in past maddens.
