    Cathartic Madden Season

    I do this fairly often, but I restarted my Ravens franchise and made a few roster moves during pre-season.

    Traded T. West to the Dolphins for a 2nd round draft pick in 2019 (I've found that it is very easy to trade for decent future draft picks).
    Traded D. Woodhead, and 2 3rd round picks (2018 and 2019) to Arizona for LB Hassan Reddick and a 5th round draft pick in 2019.
    Traded J. Maclin, straight up, to the Niners for DE Arik Armstead.
    Traded Lardarius Webb, Peanut, and Campanaro to the Redskins for WR Ryan Grant.

    Signed TJ Clemmings to back up Ronnie Stanley at LT.

    The Bills cut rookie RT Dion Dawkins, so I signed him to the active roster. He'll be Howard's replacement.
    The Cowboys cut RB Rod Smith, so I signed him to be my 3rd back.

    Starters on O:
    Flacco
    Collins
    Ricard
    Wallace
    Grant
    Moore
    Boyle
    Watson
    Howard
    Skura
    Jensen
    Hurst
    Stanley

    Starters on D:
    Suggs
    A. Armstead
    B-Will
    Henry
    Judon
    Reddick
    Mosley
    Carr
    Jimmy
    Weddle
    Jefferson

    I simmed the first season to get to free agency and plan on playing season 2.

    First season results
    • 8-8 record, missed playoffs (Patriots played the Eagles in the SB and won).
    • Flacco stats: 3,244 yards, 61% completion, 21 TD's 15 INT's
    • Collins stats: 755 yards, 6 TD's
    • Buck stats: 609 yards, 7 TD's
    • Wallace stats: 985 yards, 5 TD's
    • Grant stats: 659 yards, 3 TD's
    • Moore stats: 480 yards, 3 TD's
    • Doyle stats: 590 yards, 6 TD's
    • Judon stats: 12 sacks ( )
    • Suggs stats: 9 sacks
    • Armstead stats: 9 sacks
    • Mosley stats: 84 tackles, 2 INT's, 3 sacks
    • Reddick stats: 90 tackles, 4 sacks, 3 FF
    • Weddle: 7 INT's
    • Jimmy: 4 INT's


    Off-Season Activities (haven't done the draft yet):
    • Re-Signings: Jensen, R. Grant, & Dion Dawkins
    • Did Not Re-sign: Mallett, Wallace, Watson, Hurst
    • Traded B. Urban to Indy for TE Jack Doyle and a 2019 3rd round draft pick.
    • Signed QB Joel Stave to back up Flacco.
    • Signed WR Jordan Matthews to a 4 yr deal.
    • Moved Correa back to OLB (Plans to put him on trade block as his rating increases from ILB to OLB).
    • Moved Za Smith to RE from OLB (Plans to put him on trade block as well)
    • Traded Carr to the Bucs for a 2019 2nd round pick (I fleeced them...future picks are the way to go...)
    • Signed DT Jaleel Johnson (1st year player, Vikings cut him)
    • Am planning to trade DT Michael Pierce.

    I moved the Browns to Toronto and run up the score on the ravens. It makes me feel good taking out my frustration on them
    Burn it down

    Judon is the next decent star player on this roster. 12 Sacks sounds right to me.

    You should trade Joe. He's value quickly drops in Madden.

    Coach. I don’t think you could actually play the games in owner mode.

    Ha. You know there are people that actually think because they’re good at Madden, they’d be good in real life.

    Like I said...cathartic and meant for light fun. ;-)
