Re: Whats your highest UDFA you got?

I've never seen a starting caliber undrafted free agent. But if I see one starting for another team, and he is piss poor I usually edit him and his potential up. My rationale is that he made the team for a reason other than being a body

Re: Whats your highest UDFA you got?

I've had a couple guys I used as starters, but usually that's at positions of thin depth or I'm pissed at the people there (or both).

I think the highest was like 76 or something, which is like elite as far as those players go and definitely worth a roster spot if needed.

Never had one in the 80's though. Some WOULD be in the 80's most likely if they didn't have such funky skill sets. Between that and them almost always being "F" players are two things about the players themselves they could tweak.

Re: Whats your highest UDFA you got?

I got a 72 OVR fullback with B potential, 82 Speed and decent Impact Blocking, I think that's about the best "straight starter" I got as an UDFA.

I also once got an OLB with 85 Speed but sucky coverage ratings, he was only 67 OVR but had B potential as well so I moved him to DE (running a 4-3) and he immediately went up to around 75 and has been pretty great edge rusher on passing downs.

Another starter I got as an UDFA was a kicker, has OVR sucked (62, with only C potential) but he started out with 95 Kick power and 85 accuracy, that really shows how much the OVR calculation in Madden can suck... how is a guy with a monster leg AND decent accuracy only 62 OVR? Sure, he had only 35 Speed and Awareness, but who cares about stuff like that for a kicker?

Re: Whats your highest UDFA you got?

I saw an 89 overall A potential MLB on another team. It was a need of mine, and I had already draftedan A pot one. I tired to trade for him, but the Bengals wouldn't bite. It makes met htink the computer is just stupid with who it cuts, and they actually know the player's overall.

Re: Whats your highest UDFA you got?

His name is escaping me at this very moment (I will update this when I get home tonight and play a game) but I have a UDFA CB rated 73 overall with a "B" potential and he is currently my nickel CB.

Kid made the team in year 2 and has established himself as a rising talent in year 3.

Re: Whats your highest UDFA you got?

It was a rookie on the Bengals while I was the Panthers. I looked up my draft class, and there was no MLB at 89 overall. I then went to all players and sorted by potential, believing it must be the game showing me his "?" stat. The kid had 99 potential, and I have never seen the game lie before when it is in all teams. I don't know if they have an incredibly low chance, and no one ever checks the other teams, so there is an even lower possibility of detection, or the game is really screwy and completely showed me the wrong information.
