Madden has me wanting the Bills to move to Brooklyn.
According to the simulation it seems to be the only way Barkley stays in the city beyond his rookie deal. I’ve learned a great deal about the financial side through Madden-inspired research. The game pays attention to contracts though the algorithm suggests players generally want a lot more than they are worth and remain surprisingly finicky. My situation became difficult when I found that I had two x-factor QBs who were both due big money contracts. I signed both, but later tried to trade the 91, because I thought I could grow the backup and reap rewards for the starter in free agency. It turns out I destroyed my cap beyond all recognition and was unable to sign any of my starters who were up for big deals due to the trade. Still working my way out of that one.
I play the Bulls, which is to say I play with a Bills team that I moved to Brooklyn and traded damn near everybody in order to build from the ground up. It feels good to have done so. I don’t particularly care for the Bills, but I enjoy competing in the underrated AFC East. Here’s something to consider: If the AFC East is so bad then why is it that the top team has been in most of the Superbowls over the last decade?
Exactly. Perhaps the division is good and also seen as not as good because of the dominance of the Patriots. These are the things I’ve been considering. Still, I ought to be paying better attention to who is getting minutes and making rosters, because the fantasy draft draws nigh.
