CAG League Sports: Madden 12 "JV League" - We Finished 3 Seasons! Thanks Everybody!!!

For now, I am picking up both of my traded players since the players I am to be receiving have not been dropped yet and it has been 2 nights since I dropped them. I don't want to play my game this week and be even more short handed. I will drop them again after my Week 2 game, which is hopefully this morning.
 
Browns 16
Steelers 13

Had a great battle with the Steelers yesterday. Started with both of us having long drives that stalled out with field goals. Near the end of the first half I potentially screwed up getting onside kick interference and trying a surprise onside kick, but luckily none of that mattered. Played pretty mistake free otherwise except for my players dropping picks and falling in the rain. Anyway, I think I was down 10 for a lot of the second half, but managed to get the TD and then kick the field goal with only a few seconds left. Matt Young got pretty close to getting a field goal to win it, but I got the stop.

Matt got the ball to start overtime, but I made a good defensive stand. I then took the ball and made the game winning field goal. Unfortunately, Hillis, TJ Ward, and someone else that I can't remember are all out with injuries. Maybe it is just those two and Phil Taylor who was already out. Anyway, Hillis should be back after my bye, but I'm already worried that I'm going to have injury issues this season, we'll see I guess.
 
Hey I forget who the Bears play this week, owner messaged me yesterday asking when I could play. Messaged back but didn't hear anything. Let me know.
 
ATL - 21
MIN - 10

Falcons win a game much closer than it looks. Good game Campbell, you made some nice adjustments during the game and made me pay in the 2nd half. Good TD run by Peterson, I knew you were going to break one against me at some point and you did.

i kind felt the same way about it at first but all i did was ask what u wanted for stewart and this was it so i was like out but jenkins is one of the guys in madden that stats are better than wut his overall reflects. so once i noticed that i was like it seems fair. i could always add 4th rounder to it if i had to no problem

LOL...sorry to laugh, but it's pretty funny not knowing what system this league is for. As I've talked about with a few other people, I don't know what it is about the PS3, but people just don't do sports leagues on that system. I think the only chance you'd have would be looking on Operation Sports or the official EA forums or something to try to find PS3 users with your same situation.
 
[quote name='Yanksfan']That's why I wouldn't object.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I think it's all right too. Maybe a little off balance, but in my opinion, Stewart is overrated anyway. The 2nd rounder at least makes it reasonable.

Personally, I don't think that's anywhere close to enough for Asomugha. And I hate to say it, but in my opinion, what would be "enough" would probably put you over your core player limit. I don't know. This is kind of a trade that I can't feel too good about because to me, you're really pushing the limits of "reasonable" with this one. That's just how I feel about it though. We definitely need others to weigh in.
 
NYJ - 31
BUF - 14

Very weird game, for me at least. The 'ticker' at the top of the screen was missing, so I had no idea of downs, yardage, play clock or game clock the entire game. It definitely left me confused on several different plays.

As for the trade, my initial thought is to agree with the commish. I don't know if I would object necessarily, but I need to think about it and would welcome more discussion as well. Whichever way the trade goes though, I have to give DVO a ton of credit for hitting the trades so hard and keeping within the limits. Get this guy a GM job already!

well i think it fair considering his age hes old he isnt going to go up anymore he could very well go down in age. so he gets a first rounder which is usually of great vaule and a 4th rounder i could even go 1st rounder 3rd rounder and 4th but i honestly think thats much becuz of his age
to yanks ya man ive put so much thought into every trade this year to make the cowboys just right and fill the position that need to be filled my defense was main focus but with the no foster the offense was to a little weak so went after johntan stewart. and my CB are old even the one im going after now is old but a simple fix for now could go a long ways.

Here are my opinions on the trades.

The first one is very lop sided. Trading a top prospect RB for a old washed up defensive player who wont improve anymore. I guess the 2nd sorta makes this better, but not much.

The other one I have less problems with, but I cant believe someone would trade their star CB for a only a 1st and 4th.

Basically, my opinion is both of these trades should be balanced out a little more.


ALSO: Tanabeo, are you interested in parting ways with Olsen?

if it makes people happy i could add a 3rd rounder as well to the eagles trade
and if needed to the panthers trade add RB tashard choice as well

Yeah, I hate to say it, but I am getting a "DVO is fleecing people vibe" from these trade offers lately (to be clear, I don't think he's trying to con people...I just think he's dealing with people who don't recognize their players worth). I'm just going to put it bluntly, Tanabeo is awful at valuing his players. He did the same thing in the other league with Josh Freeman, who he was basically willing to give away from a bag of rocks. I didn't argue this trade much because he's just going to come back and say he doesn't care about Stewart/he doesn't ever play him/that's all he wants...whatever.

But the Eagles trade is different. Say what you want about him being "old". Asomugha is a STUD cornerback (93 rating) with A potential still. There is nobody even available in the draft who comes close to that. And I don't think the 4th round pick makes up the difference. But again, that's just my opinion. Majority will rule on this one.
 
its a 1st rounder 3rd rounder and 4th rounder just to clear
and age has to be somewhat of a factor in this or putting an age would be pointless to do hes an aged player. i wouldnt even give more than this for a young player at the same rating. so eagles are getting the steal in this one.
as for the panthers trade i asked him what he wanted for the RB and that was his demands so i agreed to his terms.
i have done no types of tricky here or con jobs just seeing whats out on the tables put my offers out there or see there demands and either agree or dont

for the eagles cowboys trade i would do this
1st 3rd 4th 5th round picks for the CB although i honestly feel thats to much i will do it becuz i do need a CB
as for the panthers i would add RB tashard choice to the trade even though that is to much in my eyes
but im really left with no choice in these trades for i do need these players to help better my team overall

I'd be ok with a 1st, 3rd and 4th. Seems a lite steep for DVO but bottom line is he is getting an A, seasoned player. A number one draft pick would more than like take a season if not 2 to make up for the immediate impact that DVO is getting.
 
I agree that the value still isn't quite there. As n8 points out, the difference between Asomugha and a 1st round corner is quite extreme and a 4th rounder doesn't really make up for it. Also, Asomugha may be 31, but he doesn't drop in quality next year if the other league is any indication. He still is a stud. While I hate to forecast the future of our league, it is hard to see us going more than another 2-3 years and that may be optimistic (not trying to be down or anything, just realistic based off of interest, time and a new Madden eventually coming out. A run like that is quite an accomplishment for us all). I doubt that the first round and fourth round pick will have enough time to develop into studs that would be needed to make up for Asomugha.

However..since Philly hasn't come in to argue their side at all..The Eagles already had three top CBs and then the CPU drafted them the stud CB from the draft. That rookie develops into quite a star in the future. So they really have too many CBs to justify keeping them all. I assume that is their motivation for making a trade and it is a good one. There is no need to keep that many stud CBs. I also hate telling teams how they should manage their teams.

With all that being said, my biggest concern is actually with the Eagles owner. He missed the draft and the first two weeks of the season. If he goes MIA again, then we basically approved DVO to take a top corner from a CPU team in his own division. That isn't the case yet, but it isn't a big stretch to envision it occurring either. That is more of what I am torn still on right now.
 
its a 1st 3rd and 4th pick guys i added it to the trade to make it more fair

im guessing no one really cares about the panthers trade since the main topic seems to be the cowboys eagles trade

Dark Rider objected, so I would say that one is still be discussed. I can see the concern as Stewart is still developing with his A potential.

I will say this though, and it is only my personal belief. Are we here to make sure every trade is perfectly balanced, or are we here to make sure that the integrity of the league is upheld? Value is in the eyes of the beholder, and a team may be making a deal from strengths to fill weaknesses. That is why I personally signed off on the CAR-DAL trade, as both teams are filling what they feel a need is.

The Eagles, however, are trading a top CB to a division rival while getting nothing back that helps them for the remainder of this long season. It seems odd. On top of that, they missed a big league event (draft) and their first two games. That is why I am more concerned with the Eagles trade.
 
thats why i added tashard choice to that trade
soits
mike jenkins 78 overall age 28 pot b
tashard choice 72 overall age 29 pot c or b
cowboys 2nd rounder

and johnthan stewart 87 overall age 26 pot A

now i wont disagree with anyone saying he isnt good if he wasnt i wouldnt want him but hes no where close to being the best in this game

Well, you're no where near giving up the best in the game either. ;)

Adding Choice is fine, but he is a throw in, nothing more for depth. He isn't really a difference maker in terms of value for the deal.

I really didn't want to weigh in on the CAR trade anymore, since I signed off on it, but that 'best in the game' comment pulled me back in. I will try to shut up on it now. :whistle2:#

Bingo. That's another problem I had with it. Just a few days ago, most people in the league were wondering if he had dropped. Then, he shows back up and wants to trade his top corner the next day? If he misses one more game, he's already ineligible for the playoffs. I'm not trying to be down on this trade...but thsee are just red flags for me. He's trading for draft picks...when he just didn't show up for the draft. I don't like it.

But like yanksfan, I don't know how we can ensure that N3XTLVL (or anybody for that matter) doesn't drop from the league next week. I guess I'd feel better about the deal if I felt DVO was actually giving up something. Trading draft picks is still snake oil to me in a way. It's a promise for a tomorrow that may not necessarily come.

Even if it does, as doc pointed out, the amount of time it would take for even a top 5 pick (which DVO's is unlikely to be) to develop into an Asomugha type CB is AT LEAST 2 seasons. I don't know how much tossing more draft picks onto it really helps things. Like I said, I feel what it would take to make the trade even, DVO doesn't have the cap space to make work. Asomugha is a 2 core player guy. I don't see how a trade for less than that makes any sense.

My advice for DVO would be to look for a corner who's not quite as big of a superstar as Asomugha.

EDIT - I will say, the Carolina trade I'm more ok with. As I said before, it's not dead even, but at least both sides are addressing needs and giving up something that will immediately affect them.
 
ok just talked to eagles owner in pms told him that trade was dead and we came up with a new deal.

eagles send rookie CB Laquon Charles overall 84 age 22-23ish pot A
for
cowboys 1st 3rd 4th round picks

this is a more than fair trade same trade only the Cb im getting is 9 ratings lower

I like this one much better. It might even be reasonable to argue that the 4th rounder isn't necessary in that deal (however...if that's what it took for the Eagles to be comfortable with the trade I'd still say it's worth it). At least here DVO is having to groom a player meaning BOTH teams have to wait to reap the full benefits of the trade.
 
I agree it is more fair. My concerns with the Eagles trading a good player to a division rival still stand, but if the league approves, then I am fine with it.
 
lol yay finally good news haha.
hey N8 are we still on point to advance tonight at some point.
becuz thats why ive been pushing these two trades so hard trying to get them to go thru b4 my week 3 game. that way i can put the guys to use
