    I'm struggling to keep up with the speed of this draft. Mikey takes the Pats, theoneadlum is next up.

    Impulse decision: Denver Broncos. Would never take Manning in a franchise. But he should hold his own for a knockout competition.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 16,192 Mod ✭✭✭✭adrian522


    Thanks, Perrin is next up.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 6,337 Mod ✭✭✭✭PerrinV2


    Texans


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,692 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    Come on Adrian, keep up!


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 16,192 Mod ✭✭✭✭adrian522


    Texans for PerrinV2, Colts for myself. Helimachoptor is next up.

    Packers for me


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 16,192 Mod ✭✭✭✭adrian522


    Packers slide a long way, but no further, Carroller is up next.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,507 ✭✭✭Carroller


    Ill go Vikings!


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 16,192 Mod ✭✭✭✭adrian522


    Tipped as a top 5 pick elsewhere but they fall a long way here.

    linebacker52 is up next.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 476 ✭✭linebacker52


    Atlanta Falcons

  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 16,192 Mod ✭✭✭✭adrian522


    Good Pick, linebacker52 takes the Falcons, Raoul takes the Saints (via PM).

    Paully is next up with the last pick of the draft.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    I'll take the Buffalo Bills please.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 16,192 Mod ✭✭✭✭adrian522


    Has someone hacked Paully's account?

    Bills it is.

    :pac:

    I've been doing a bit of research and have shortlisted a few teams that I think I may like that also have a very good chance of falling to me in the draft.

    I'll play friendlies with the other teams, but if nothing else I'll be able to rule the Bills out after one game :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,825 ✭✭✭Mikeyt086


    The 2 guys who do the official Prima Madden Strategy Guide have the Buffalo Bills at #4 in their top 32 teams this year.

    Ssshhhhh! :pac:

    They will be overlooked by many but have a good Madden team. Manuel can run the option and has a throw power in the mid 90's. Spiller is one of the best running backs in the game, add in Jackson for a great 1-2. At wide receiver there's Johnson plus speed merchants in Woods and Goodwin. On the defensive side of the ball the two Williams' will scare QB's and in the secondary there's Gilmore and Byrd.

    Of course there's plenty of weaknesses, but for someone picking at the low end of the draft they seem a very nice option.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 6,337 Mod ✭✭✭✭PerrinV2


    Ya the Bills have potential,if I were picking lower in the draft I'd be all over them


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,557 ✭✭✭madalig12


    Hmmm maybe an option at number three now!

  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 16,192 Mod ✭✭✭✭adrian522


    Dear God!

    Maybe an option at 30. Not at 3 I don't think.

    I'm high on them in Madden but that would be absolutely insane :pac:

    There are 2 guys, they work for Prima Games, they make a Madden Strategy Guide.

    They have ranked the 32 teams in terms of immediate usability, they have ranked the Bills at #4.

    Hope that clears it up :pac:

    Where do I find this?

    You don't. :p

    It's only for absolutely elite competitors like myself... And apparently Paully :pac:

    Honestly I can't remember where I found it, it's a 50min podcast of the 2 lads, ZFarls and SGibs who are competitive Madden players who are now employed by EA to do the official tips and tricks on Youtube and obviously the guide, talking about each team and their strengths and weaknesses, but they are talking from a Head 2 Head perspective, not Careers, so it's not so much their potential but ability now. Regarding the Bills it is because EJ Manual is actually a beast on Madden.

    I'll try find it, think it was posted on PFL.
