Madden NFL 20
Madden 20: xAPATHYx Xbox One Roster Updated Following First Round of NFL Draft
We have been highlighting xAPATHYx’s roster so it does not need much introduction anymore. It is a well put together and cared for custom roster for Madden 20 on Xbox One. Here are the latest updates following the first round of the NFL Draft from xAPATHYx:
A few notes from the Round 1 update:
– I placed Chase Young as starting RE [Redskins]. Washington switched over to a 4-3 defense this offseason. Based off of multiple reports from Washington – I have Sweat and Young as the starting DEs with Kerrigan backing up both positions on the depth chart. Payne and Allen are the starting DTs with Ioannidis being the immediate backup as well as rushing DT on obvious passing downs. All reports are showing that Chase Young will be pursuing #99 which I have him as.
– Several players received rating tweaks based off of draft position.
– I hate this Create a Player option sometimes. Madden makes several of these guys way too big.
Justin Herbert is a perfect example of a player who needs to be skinnier in the game but there’s no way to do it.
Then you have players like Tua and Isaiah Wilson who’s face and hair styles can not be matched by any of the custom faces offered by EA.
– I removed DE Yannick Ngakoue from the Jaguars depth chart (for the time being.) After his Twitter rants and the team selection of edge player Chaisson….the writing seems to be on the wall. If he ends up working out an agreement out I’ll adjust accordingly.
– I moved C/G Cesar Ruiz to backup RG. Coach Sean Payton announced this morning that Larry Warford will be needing to compete for his job with Ruiz so I’m going off of that. I also have Ruiz as the immediate backup to all 3 interior positions on the depth chart.
– 49ers WRs are a mess. So many players with similar OVRs. SF gave up a lot for Aiyuk so I have him in the starting lineup for now. If any 49ers fans want to give me some suggestions on this let me know. I’ll be monitoring SF reports daily.
– OL Isaiah Wilson was placed at starting RT for now [Titans] but it’s looking more and more likely he will start off on the bench for his 1st season behind Kelly. Unless the team gives him a chance to compete at RG.
– Jets offensive line received changes. Becton should be the starting LT with Fant moving over to RT. Alex Lewis should assume his natural LG role with Van Rotten and Winters competing at RG.
– WR CeeDee Lamb announced for now he is taking jersey #10.
Rounds 2-3 will be a similar process today. I’ll be adding more Draft Prospects early in the day as well as additional tweaks.

Roster File Name: UPDATED20
As always, xAPATHYx does great work and cares deeply about this project, so if you have respectful insights that can help him make the roster even better, then by all means head to the thread and give some feedback after scoping out the roster.
At one point I had the week 1 roster untouched but i lost the file when i reinstalled Madden. Sorry. Not sure if theres any available at the moment.
Not on my game at the moment but did you add Jay Ajayi to the eagles.
Not on my game at the moment but did you add Jay Ajayi to the eagles.
Yes I added him to the roster 4 days ago. Currently have him at a 79 OVR. I've since updated him to the proper #28 jersey as well. The Twitter post below was before they announced his official Jersey assignment

This is the largest update I've done for ratings, if not the second largest update up to this point. As always, I do monitor all of EA's changes, especially their 'Big Movers' however I've gone through and made several changes of my own that I feel EA neglected. The most notable changes are QB Lamar Jackson moving up to a 90 OVR, while several players like Maxx Crosby , RB Christian McCaffrey, LG Bradley Bozeman, CB Nik Needham, SS Taylor Rapp and many others received long over due upgrades. I'm very easy going with ratings adjustments, as long as the recommendations or suggestions are backed with decent evidence of consistent gameplay so feel free to hit me up with your suggestions.
* All players that were recently DTR from I.R. or activated off of PUP have been placed back on the primary depth charts and/or starting lineups depending on their status. Reminder: Just because a player has EA's official I.R. next to their name does not prevent you from using them in Play Now or CFM.
* I will need to create & add a couple players who were promoted to the active roster this evening including S Jonathan Owens & S J.T. Hassell . I did create/add TE Jesper Horsted to the roster using an actual face while also utilizing Madden's official EA ratings.
* DE Myles Garrett has been removed from the depth chart. With his obvious suspension looming into the playoffs, he won't be playing any more downs this regular season. You can always add him back if you choose.
* Equipment updates were added with EA's most recent Title Update so I went through and changed several players. @Helmet_Stalker did a great update with all the changes for several players including Zeke, Jalen Richard, Danny Shelton, Robert Quinn etc. I also went through and added the proper collar for Leighton Vander Esch as well as additional edits.
* Going through and continuing to update proper assigned jersey numbers to recent transactions. They may not be done immediately but they are getting done. Several were updated tonight. If I miss anything, let me know and I'll get it done immediately.

As always I will also be monitoring Madden's official roster release tomorrow and will adjust as I see fit. I often feel Madden is too critical on certain positions (especially QB and RB) but I still try and keep my ratings in line with Madden 20's new rating formulas. I'm open doored always, so any suggestions or discussion is encouraged :waytogo:
* Players that were recently activated or DTR from I.R. have been placed back on their respective depth charts. These players are expected to play no later than week 16 if not sooner. This list includes players such as RB Kerryon Johnson , WR John Ross , DE Akiem Hicks , DL Kentavius Street , LB Marquel Lee & others.
* Several players are being created and added to the roster that did not exist on the base roster. I'm referencing players such as TE Jason Vander Laan , TE Stephen Carlson , WR Jalen Guyton etc. I still need to add a couple more such as WR Alex Hollins & OL Sua Opeta . I will get to them in the next 48 hours.
- Several depth charts were adjusted based off the last 2 weeks.
- QB Garder Minshew promoted back to starting QB
- I'm leaving Eli Manning as the #2 QB since Jones' injury doesn't appear to be season ending.

Several teams (especially the Broncos) received ratings edits. Some notable player changes in this revision include K Will Lutz, CB Taron Johnson, FS Justin Simmons, CB Kenny Moore, WR Courtland Sutton, P Riley Dixon, EDGE Za'Darius Smith and over 40+ more. EA's most recent update was looked at and I applied some corrections as I felt necessary but also focused on my own evaluations from the past 2 weeks of game watching. As mentioned before, feel free to contact me with suggestions or discussion because I'm very laid back and understanding when it comes to Madden ratings.

Week 14 production mixed with consistency from the previous 3 weeks are a huge factor in my edits. If you have any suggestions or recommendations please contact me because I'm very transparent with ratings and enjoy community involvement. All I ask is a little educated reasoning and discussion before hand.
- QB Eli Manning switched to starting QB
- Saints Defensive Depth Chart Adjusted
- Raiders secondary depth chart adjusted
- CB Simeon Thomas removed from Washington's depth chart due to season-ending suspension
- DB Eric Rowe moved back to CB . Steven Parker played exclusively at SS with Colbert seeing time at FS. Rowe has been dedicated to playing man coverage on TE's but should see more corner play now with injuries.
* Various edits were done to about 60% of the teams
* All players activated from injury/PUP or DTR from I.R. have been placed back on their respective depth charts.
* Several players were created/added to the roster that were not part of the base roster. Players such as DE Jamal Davis, CB Nate Brooks, WR Alexander Hollins and others were added. I still need to create and add OL Mitch Hyatt, C Tyler Gauthier, CB Linden Stephens & DL Frank Herron. I should get these completed tomorrow.

I encourage community involvement, since it is a Community Roster it makes sense to me to hear out the Xbox community.
The players he mentioned did get upgrades by EA and myself, I just have them rated a tad higher than EA on my roster.

Really appreciate it. Our delivery date got pushed back to this weekend.
My base roster is the Week 1 roster update. The Redskins have the most players with official I.R. status by EA, but every EA update including the game-launch roster, already had some players with the I.R. assignment.
Considering how many players have been placed on I.R. this year across the league, my roster in general has very few official I.R. players

Thank you so much for all that you do - I use your roster in my Dolphins franchise & did accurate accounts of standings all the way up till week 16 & then I went off of Fox Sports for the final 2 weeks - I fired coaches who were on the hot seat - moved the Raiders to Vegas - Resigned players to keep things realistic and drafted all teams 1st round picks as according to Todd McShays latest mock draft - I did make adjustments to my own liking within the draft as some players that he had going to teams already had highly skilled rated positions in Madden - I did draft Tua at #4 - Ruggs III at #22 & Jonathan Taylor at #25. Super excited about this offense!
Congratulations to you & your wife on the new baby! I am praying & believing for a healthy delivery & that your child is going to live an ABSOLUTELY AMAZING LIFE!

For obvious reasons it will be a few days before I'm able to do my usual grind on Madden again. We will see how it goes. I'll update ONLY when time permits. Merry Christmas to Operation Sports though 🎄

Congrats!!! Enjoy him first before you even think about the grind of updating!
The following players have been placed on I.R. and removed from their team's depth charts: QB Matt Stafford , WR Mike Evans , WR Trey Quinn , TE Evan Engram , OL Brandon Scherff , OL James Carpenter , OL Garrett McGhin , OL Trent Brown , OL Chuma Edoga , DE Takk McKinley , DL Adam Gotsis , LB Tanner Vallejo , LB Danny Trevathan , LB Raekwon McMillan , LB Marquel Lee , LB Luke Gifford , LB Kamu Grugier-Hill , CB Kevin Peterson , CB Jimmy Moreland , S Jordan Whitehead , S Rolan Milligan , K Ryan Succop
This was a large overhaul. The positions that received the most changes were at TE, CB & WR. Reminder: Although my roster is based off of Madden's official rating scales, I alter several players that I feel are underrated/overrated by EA. This is a Community Roster, so I also listen quite a bit to Madden players and their suggestions.
-- QB Will Grier promoted to starting QB
-- QB Daniel Jones promoted back to starting QB after team announcement - I gave Eli his final Madden rating
-- DT Al Woods has been removed from the depth chart due to season-ending suspension.
-- WR A.J. Green removed from the depth chart - he was cleared but won't play
-- Depth chart edits were done to a handful of teams including the Saints, Vikings, Raiders, Bengals, Seahawks, Buccaneers, Dolphins, Jets & Broncos
* Here's a list of players that I created/added to the roster: DL Deyon Sizer , DL Austin Larkin , S Montre Hartage
Here's a list of active roster players that need to be created, who do not exist in Madden 20: WR Spencer Schnell , WR Cyril Grayson , TE Cody McElroy , S J.T. Hassell , OG Lester Cotton , OL Matt Kaskey
here is the reason hassell is not on the game the reason he is not in the game is he was born with only 2 fingers on his left hand which is hard for EA to program someone with less than 5 fingers on a hand

Just wanted to wish you all a Merry Christmas. No updates will come until after Thursday or Friday

I will adjust ratings some if they're deserved after Week 17 but the ratings as they are now will likely remain until EA releases their End of the Year Roster Update.
- Several depth charts were revised including the Vikings, Dolphins, Eagles, Cowboys, Buccaneers, Chiefs, Raiders, 49ers, Redskins and Jets
- CB Jordan Miller removed from the depth chart due to season ending suspension
- RB Marshawn Lynch and DE Porter Gustin were added to the roster
- FB Roosevelt Nix , WR Ryan Switzer , DE J.J. Watt & DT Xavier Williams were added back to their team's depth charts. They've been cleared to play for the playoffs.
* There is a long list of players on Active Rosters right now that EA doesn't have in Madden 20: QB Drew Anderson , WR Spencer Schnell , WR Cyril Grayson , WR Trenton Irwin , TE Cody McElroy , OG Lester Cotton , T/G Matt Kaskey , OT Wyatt Miller , DT Kevin Givens , LB Anthony Pittman , CB Donovan Olumba , S J.T. Hassell and more...
I was hoping EA would have added them this week in their update, but they did not. @Equipment_Guru informed me that EA doesn't add Week 17 players who are last second adds to non-playoff teams knowing they will likely be gone after this week. (I can kinda understand his reasoning, but I know several players still use these weekly updates for various reasons.)
I was able to add a couple including CB Donovan Olumba, QB Drew Anderson and a couple others, but the rest will come at a slower pace.
Last year's offseason and draft project for Madden 19 was one of the most detailed rosters I've done over the past 4 years but it took so much time away from my every day life and family. I don't think I can commit to all 7 rounds again as well as some of the created UDFAs.
I will be thinking about this moving forward but wanted to give a small update on the topic since it was asked to me on Twitter and private message. I already promised my wife Madden 20 would be the last year I touch rosters. For future Maddens I will be exclusively playing MUT and my own franchise and private roster editing.
I will NOT be going through and doing Futures Deals until the playoffs & Super Bowl conclude. I will go through all 32 NFL Teams and do a complete roster overhaul utilizing Madden's end of the year roster in preparation for the offseason & free agency. The majority of futures deals are former practice squad members anyway given an opportunity to compete in camp. A lot of the PS players are already on their respective teams.
from players that received last second changes after Week 17. If you have any concerns and suggestions please let me know as I'm very easy going with ratings as long as they're within reason and with educated backing.
* The following players have been placed on I.R. and removed from their team's depth charts: OG Brandon Brooks , G/C Ethan Pocic , DL Daeshon Hall , DT Armon Watts , OLB Mychal Kendricks , FS Juan Thornhill , SS Tashaun Gipson
* The following players have been placed back on their team's depth charts after being cleared from injury for the playoffs: C Brett Jones , LB Kwon Alexander , DE J.J. Watt , SS Raven Greene
This will be the base roster moving forward for future updates. I still plan to add key additional UDFAs that EA chose to leave out. I will wait for the 1st week of pre-season to conclude before I add them. I'm all ears though for recommendations and requests.
I'll get to them as quickly as I can, but unlike previous years I have some new priorities in my life so I will not be on this roster in crazy fashion as I was in previous years. Thanks

* Jersey Number corrections: Madden did a decent job this year, however I found a few errors here and there. Off the top of my head I know a few players from the Bills including Maurice Alexander and John Brown received corrections. Jason Myers and Paxton Lynch also received corrections on the Seahawks roster. WRs Andre Roberts and Jermaine Kearse also were corrected. There were a couple others but I didn't write them all down. Sorry.

Trust me I'm ready to start my franchise mode too so I want to get this roster done just as bad. I'm behind though and trying to cram a million things in tonight before the release. I dont want to release a project that is only 60% complete though. @Houston and myself have found several key players missing and EA already plans to release an updated version soon with all the players added. It makes me want to wait for that release instead but I'm online working on the roster as we speak
i wouild foucs on fort denver TE other than fant just ok
well ****.....
I just checked myself and yeah they added quite a few of the players to free agency and have Darren Sproles, Ziggy Hood Damontre Moore and a few others already added to the game.....
I should have known better.

It utilizes Madden's most recent update which included the addition of RB Darren Sproles , DE Damontre Moore , WR Preston Williams , DT Robert Thomas , & DT Ziggy Hood .
I will update the 2nd post on the 1st page to reflect all the changes that were made today to the roster. This will be the base roster moving forward.
My future plans: adding key UDFAs, and fine tuning the roster as a whole.
Appreciate your patience.
As always: I'm an open door for recommendations and corrections so let me know if you see anything. Take care.

I can second K Doss. He is impressing people at training camp.
All transactions were updated as well with a few depth chart updates from training camp (Ravens, Cardinals and a couple others released depth charts today).
The next 2 weeks are going to be hell for me with training at the fire department (we have promotional testing next month, so I'll be out in the heat all day on my days off teaching.) Not sure how much time I'll have between now and the end of the month but I'll see what I can do.

Have a good one.
I will continue to make small updates available as I do them for myself, but in regards to major updates, I'm trying to have them done once every 2 weeks. I will have another pre-season update which will include a much heavier array of equipment edits as well as UDFAs that make the team. That will likely happen around Week 3 of pre-season if not Week 4 for sure.

FB Alec Ingold , OLB Sam Eguavoen , DE Amani Bledsoe , K Elliott Fry & RB Damarea Crockett . I believe there's a couple more I did but I don't have the list in front of me. More will be coming.
Rating Edits: I'm not going too heavy on rating updates but several free agent players as well as other players have received some rating adjustments. Players such as RB Josh Jacobs had their speed updated while OVRs on certain players such as CB Xavien Howard also were updated. As of today I've updated about 25 players with small edits but nothing crazy enough to alter the whole face of the roster. I'm open eared to recommendations, but I prefer a roster that shows players actual value and not just opinion based by EA.
Equipment Edits: Tonight's games I will be heavily monitoring for key player changes, however all of @Helmet_Stalker's equipment changes have been applied to the roster. This includes helmet corrections for: RB James White, RB Devonta Freeman, TE David Njoku, SS Jeff Heath, K Stephen Gostkowski and several others.
Missing Veteran Players: As mentioned before, several veteran players are missing from Madden. I had to add a few players such as WR Michael Crabtree , QB Matt Simms and a couple others but not every missing veteran has been created/added. For example, recent signings such as RB Kerwynn Williams , DE Kasim Edebali and SS Tyvis Powell are still missing.
This is an ongoing problem with XBOX users - I have the game on both XBOX and PS4 and I have these issues with the XBOX but not the PS4. Please see link

madden 20 has miami running a multiple defense with some 3-4......do you know anything about this?
Miami is primarily a 4-3 but yes Brian Flores brought over a similar Multiple D defense from New England. Jerome Baker for example is a hybrid OLB now and will play the line of scrimmage as a cover LB and a pass rusher also. Minkah Fitzpatrick plays nickel corner but also will jump to outside corner and SUB LB depending on the formation. It's extremely difficult to portray on the roster because you will need to substitute a lot for authenticity.
Ultimately each defender on the roster now has 2 positions at minimum that they are required to learn and WILL play at any given time.

* K Chandler Catanzaro officially announced his retirement from the NFL . He's been added to the retired list and removed from the roster.
UDFAs:
* The following players were created and added to the roster today: OLB/EDGE Malik Reed and WR Keelan Doss .
A few UDFAs including RB Christian Wade still remain on my list to be added to the roster, however I would like to see production from Week 2 first. I'd hate to create the players only for them to get cut by week 3 and never re-surface. Prior to Week 1 all pertinent UDFAs will be added to the game.
* Several pre-season week 1 standouts received ratings adjustments.
As mentioned before I'm trying to stay with Madden's current rating system and not going overboard but players such as Nathan Peterman, Preston Williams, Jalen Hurd and about 10 others received ratings boosts. When I begin really updating ratings, then I will have a full list with details but until then, they're minimal this early in pre-season.
* Equipment updates continue. All of @Helmet_Stalker's updates are included along with several players from social media highlights as well as user requests. ANYTIME a player receives any sort of creation/addition or rating adjustment, their equipment is automatically updated by me to the last game(s) they've played. So players like Peterman, Preston Williams and others mentioned above all received proper equipment corrections as well.

With matt’s sliders and your roster now i just need a good 2020 draft class to start my franchise :)
By the time I'm done with preseason maybe the next title update will be out.
yes Kyron Brown is on my list to create. I will definitely have him added by the end of tomorrow at the latest. I might be able to squeeze him in this evening but not likely.
By the time I'm done with preseason maybe the next title update will be out.
EA released a roster update today, but there are still players missing. My next big roster update is coming tomorrow and will be posted by evening.
Tomorrow's update will consist of ratings updates, equipment, relevant UDFAs after 2 weeks of pre-season and transactions.

Not 1000% sure just yet. Though he's been cleared from the league he's still in awkward limbo with the Patriots and he's also still on I.R. via Madden/EA on all the rosters.
If he begins practicing with the team and plays in pre-season or suits up for the season he will be placed appropriately on the depth chart. (You can remove I.R./previous injuries when loading up CFM and in Play Now also.)
However for the time being, I'll keep him off the depth chart until New England releases more info. As of now, from latest reports he should be available by Week 1 of the regular season, but who knows. Jakobi Myers has been awesome also, so I need to get him added to the roster later today.
I monitor the AFC East closely on a daily basis so I'll have something figured out.
Just for example, I'll remove hand warmers and various things from certain players, after the edits are saved, loaded to the cloud, uploaded to the community files and then downloaded again for verification..... all of the transactions, depth chart fixes and created players are there but the equipment edits are reverted back to default.... which pisses me off considering how much time I put into the equipment portion of it.....
And I know its an error during the upload to the Community Downloads portion because some of the equipment changes I make are available. The Eagles RBs and Lamar Jackson edits are all correct, but several offensive lineman are missing the elbow rubber pads and shoe corrections I went through and did.
Sorry for the rant but I'll have a detailed post made before the end of evening of all changes made.
* QB Josh McCown signed to the Eagles (created/added)
* QB Danny Etling signed to the Falcons (claimed off waivers)
* RB Elijah Hood signed to the Jaguars
* WR Emanuel Hall signed to the Buccaneers (claimed off waivers)
* MLB Albert McClellan signed to the Jets
* MLB Donald Payne signed to the Ravens
* CB Jalen Myrick signed to the Falcons
* P Johnny Townsend signed to the Giants (claimed off waivers)
* OG Cameron Hunt re-signed to the Raiders
* QB Tanner Lee released from the Jaguars
* WR Braxton Miller released from the Eagles
* WR Jordan Lasley released from the Raiders
* LB Stephone Anthony released from the Falcons
* DL Elijah Qualls released from the Ravens
* OLB/EDGE Myles Humphrey released from the Redskins
* DB Jermaine Kelly released from the Texans
* CB Greg Mabin released from the 49ers
* K Elliott Fry released from the Bears
* The following player(s) have been placed on I.R. and removed from the depth charts: MLB Avery Williamson , CB Tavon Young
* OG Christian Westerman removed from the Bengals roster. He appears to be headed to retirement and has left the team.
* Several teams received revisions to their depth charts including the Eagles, Lions, Raiders, Bengals, Jets, Ravens & Bears.
* I'm monitoring the situation closely with Josh Gordon . As of now he doesn't appear ready to play during pre-season and the team hasn't committed to him playing by Week 1, so until his situation becomes more clear I am leaving him off of the Pats depth chart.
I went through and updated several ratings. Be advised though the only 'Veteran' player ratings adjustments were done to QBs and various RBs. The majority of ratings edits were done to players such as UDFAs and 1-year experience players who are moving up quite a bit on their depth charts from EA's default roster. If a rookie or 1 year players has moved up to the #2 roles of their position, those were the players I was targeting in edits.
Equipment changes: This has been the most frustrating experience for me. For whatever reason, after the file is uploaded to the Cloud and then onto the Community Downloads, several players who received equipment changes keep reverting back to EA's default and it's driving me nuts. Several players who I would remove their hand warmers and make changes to elbows (lineman) and sneakers continue to revert back to default equipment after it's uploaded in the Community Files.
There are players that their equipment is corrected properly (players such as Jordan Howard or Lamar Jackson etc., but a majority of offensive lineman are missing their rubber elbow pads that I added and several QBs continue to revert back to having hand warmers. Little things like that.
Just noticed on the bucs, shouldn't JPP be a defensive end?
Just noticed on the bucs, shouldn't JPP be a defensive end?
Bucs switched to a 3-4. And JPP will play more of an outside edge pass rush position. I anticipate when he returns in November/December (if he returns) he would play the OLB/EDGE role in Tampa's defense. Tampa also has him listed at OLB on their depth charts as well.

* SS T.J. McDonald released from the Dolphins
* SS Josh Jones released from the Packers
* LS Andrew DePaola released from the Raiders
* SS Rudy Ford traded to the Philadelphia Eagles for DT Bruce Hector
* The following players have been placed on season-ending I.R. and removed from the depth chart: RB Doug Martin , RB Lamar Miller , WR Hakeem Butler , OLB Brandon King , OLB Josh Carraway , S Josh Shaw , SS Derwin James
* WR Josh Gordon has been placed back in the starting lineup . EA had him on official I.R. with this base roster, however you can turn off pre-existing injuries prior to loading in CFM or Play Now modes. My roster is from EA's original base update, so there are minimal players effected by removing the I.R. status.
* Bengals offensive line was updated. The team announced Michael Jordan and Trey Hopkins
* WR Michael Crabtree and QB Josh McCown were created/added to the roster. Their ratings are copied over from the official M20 ratings with a couple very minor variations. Crabtree and Kirk should see outside action with Fitzgerald working out of the slot assuming training camp indications remain. Josh McCown was boosted some - anybody who agrees with EA's official rating along with how he performed in pre-season....you get my point...
* Equipment edits continue, and several players were updated after Games 2 and 3 of pre-season. Most recently, and off the top of my head, players such as: RB Le'Veon Bell, TE Jason Witten, WR Michael Gallup, RB Dalvin Cook, K Eddy Pineiro, RB Buddy Howell, RB Damarea Crockett, QB Trace McSorley, DE Josh Allen, RB Mark Walton, WR Emmanuel Sanders, and many many more were all updated.
I did a test run of the roster in CFM today and everything ran smoothly. As always, and this is inevitable, you still have to make some minor depth chart corrections (thanks to EA's odd import settings to CFM). A couple retired players, such as Mark Sanchez and a few others also pop up in free agency even though they've been removed from my roster (once again, due to EA's odd import settings). I've enjoyed it so far though. A few late round rookies and UDFAs get cut during sims...so that part may be an issue if you choose to only control 1 team.
That's it for now. Let me know if you have any requests or catch any mistakes. I'll get to it whenever I have time. This is my last month of freedom, because next month starts promotional testing at my work and I start up my 2nd job as well.
I'm giving you all that I can while I can. My time will be less and less as we move forward this year. Take care.

Last year Kareem Hunt was taken off in main menu but would appear in the CFM. I'm guessing next update Kane with remove Andrew Luck, but he could still show up in CFM.
In the show once a players taken out of MLBPA they turn generic on that game, imglad EA and NFL are not doing that for this game for the people who still might wanna try to win a SuperBowl for him.

49ers signed TE Daniel Helm.
While running some test sims, Dez Bryant kept getting back into the league (often with the Browns) and acting like it was 2014.
To fix it I made a list of the top FA (anyone over 70) and then went to a different roster file that had made the edits to these guys (TFG, but his roster has all sorts of quirks) and put down his edits in a spreadsheet that I then edited in-game.
Very nice indeed.
one question I Have, I know you keep mentioning that you have a lot coming up and you are going to be putting this to bed soon... can we expect an Opening day roster after the 4 pm cut time on Saturday? Or should I just use what you have now as the base and keep it up to date myself moving forward?
He was added to the roster about 2 days ago :headbang2
49ers signed TE Daniel Helm.
He's been added to the roster for a day or two now, however when he first signed with the 49ers, the team's roster met maximum capacity per EA's rules, so I intentionally left him off the roster anticipating him not making the 53-man roster.

Very nice indeed.
I have edited quite a few FA players, however no I have not gone in depth to edit every single FA player or to test out that portion of the sim in CFM. The only FA sim I've checked out is the re-spawning of retired players and how certain teams sign players that I've removed completely from the roster. (Haven't been able to control that.)
I'm 100% on board for FA rating edits though and have always been an open door policy with Community Suggestions/Discussion. I didn't think Dez Bryant being at a 77 OVR would have that much of an impact but I'm obliged to take your word for it. Especially since several other players have higher OVRs.
Let me know what you think of, or encourage to edit and trust me, it will get done. My reputation proves that. TFG has always focused on how ratings effect the game and for that I can't dog him about, but I can find endless mistakes he has on his rosters due to lack of attention to the actual roster themselves. He makes low rated teams even lower (Dolphins for example.) which makes them border line unplayable period... I don't like to alter Madden's new ratings system TOO MUCH due to a limited amount of time with it in play. Madden copied a lot of what he used to do with ratings, so now TFG has to find new content to put out to maintain his reputation with ratings.
It's complicated on my end but here's my attempt at answering your questions:
-- Yes I plan an opening day roster after pre-season... HOWEVER:
** I have my 2nd child/baby due in December. Due to it being a high-risk pregnancy, I anticipate a very very hectic October through December in order to get to that point. So far everything has been 100% healthy so I'm hoping it remains. However because of this my attention to Madden won't be anything what it used to be. I ESPECIALLY don't anticipate any Draft or things along those lines for the roster like I have either.
** I'm a firefighter/paramedic full time and have recently picked up a 2nd job as well to help pay for baby-related things, both medically and necessity. Because of this my old schedule has been altered so my ability to play Madden like I used to once again is not helping matters.
And now with Hurricane Dorian on the way, I'm anticipating having to deploy to the east coast as part of the FL-USAR team that I'm on with my fire department and that also will take me away from Madden for multiple days.

This is a known error with XBOX that has not been corrected as of yet - I have fixed it previously by uninstalling and reinstalling the game - the caveat to this is that any future updates to this roster - you will not be successful in downloading as you will have to rinse and repeat this step
Damn, thanks for the heads up though. Any reason it's just this file it has happened with?
All other files I've downloaded have worked fine.
I have the same issue as you but it happens with every Community file I download. As mentioned by Teleo, re-installing fixed it, however immediately after a Title update it reverts back to the same problem.
Here is a link at EA describing the same errors. You aren't alone:

I'm posting a 53-man cut and PS roster update today, however Charcandrick West has been on my roster since he was signed by the Colts. Neither Ware nor Marquis Young made the practice squad or 53-man team so they will not be on the roster.
Check the next page for an update. It's being made available tonight (90% completed.)
** All 32 NFL teams had their roster cuts addressed.
Some of these teams carry 4 total LBs and 4 total defensive lineman with no practice squad additions either, so it's miserable trying to copy the roster over with EA preventing it.
** The practice squad players that exist in the game, were added to the 32 NFL teams that signed them today. There were thrown in at the bottom of the depth chart positions so they should not be listed as starters. It's impossible to have every single practice squad player removed from the depth chart, so you'll have to correct your depth charts in CFM. It's inevitable anyway, because EA distorts all depth charts regardless on every roster loaded into CFM.
* All of today's additional transactions were included in this update. I believe I managed to catch all of them, but if I missed any let me know. I've been working on this roster for 2 days and my brain is fried - so bare with me.
* There are roughly 39 main roster players that are missing from Madden and not in the game. I've created and added a majority of them, however I'm fully aware there are a few yet to be added. I will get to them soon.
* Jersey number corrections will come when I get ahold of them, but politely let me know if you catch them before I do and I will correct them immediately. Don't be a jerk about it though; I had a few people last year PM me on Xbox pissed off because a newly signed player had 59 instead of 58 less than 24 hours after they were signed. (I do have a life....)
** Depth chart corrections: For the most part they've all been addressed but I gaurantee there are plenty of corrections I missed. Like I said, I've been working on this roster for 2 days so bare with me. Read above also because unfortunately some PS players will be included in the depth chart, but you can NOT remove ALL of them.
When EA releases it's official Week 1 roster update I will closely analyze it and make the final decision on whether or not it's worth using for all my roster updates moving forward. I know the hand full of player photo additions are important to people so I take that into consideration. The luxury of using an early roster update and building from it is that there are fewer players on official I.R. set by EA. Every update more and more players get official I.R. status preventing you from removing them or editing them as needed.
Like I said, I will let you know what decision I end up making but I really need a break for a little bit.

I have this problem sometimes too. Easiest solution is go back to the dashboard, close the game and restart the game. Jump back to roster share and download your file. Should appear now and is ready to load...I do this all the time and so far this way it always worked for me
Thanks this worked, way easier than reinstalling the whole game.

That's always funny right? People are getting soooo lazy and cannot even edit a #number on it's own, same for depth charts, position swaps.
I had this problem back in the days with NBA 2k14. I made rosters for PC and Xbox for a lot of Filipinos and after a while they started to complain about the craziest things like rotation time, shot edits/animations, wrong numbers, ito wrong depth charts and always asked for a full new update with those tweaks, about the rookie bug, that after adding the whole PBL league the PBL crashed because of the schedule etc. Funny thing is some things were not my fault and problems of the game itself....And yea and one point it was just ridiculous and totally took the fun out of me creating any rosters since then.
Negative. I won't be doing any draft classes with the roster. I haven't tested any of the current ones available either so I'm unable to provide any suggestions. (TFG's rating system is completely different than mine and wont be compatible). As my life currently is, I will not be doing the draft this next offseason with this roster, so I will download a few draft classes and offer an opinion soon.
ALSO: Roster Update 8.0 will be coming tomorrow likely.
Looking to do an "Auburn" fantasy draft team and I know a few guys who are either on practice squads or free agents.
Thanks!
Nevermind! I just read backwards and saw practice squad players are in. I just know players like Duke Williams, Ryan Davis and a few other former Auburn Tigers weren't in the launch rosters.

Some players were created/added on my roster a while back, such as Duke Williams. I can't create/add every single PS player that doesn't exist in the game it would be overwhelming.
I'm currently holding off on any additional major additions until I get my hands on the official Week 1 roster released by EA either later today or tomorrow.
EA left a few I.R. players on teams that were officially cut a while ago (Kenneth Dixon , Chase Allen are just a couple quick examples). They'll permanently end up on these teams when using this roster as a base ��
Depth charts are pretty off as usual which stings knowing I'll have to go through all 32 teams all over again.
I'm also going to have to re-add all the practice squad players all over again.
A lot of the missing players however have been added to the game which is a pro of course and will save me some time.
The equipment edits are surprisingly decent this go around. At least with the new player additions they were matched from game play. Those I'm always editing anyway so it's not big deal to me.
Give me till Saturday night for an official roster release. I'm on duty at the fire department tomorrow for 24 hours but I'll be home all day Saturday

I'm doing a new roster this evening as we speak, however the older roster file that I have available at the moment in the Community Downloads has Miami switched to a 3-4. There's a few errors with EA's depth chart on Miami though. Sam Eguavoen plays exclusively over the LT which should make him a ROLB. Charles Harris played almost exclusively over the RT which should make him a LOLB. EA has them reversed. There are other errors as well with EA's new roster but not really a big deal.
Sorry - I haven't been using this website that much since the activity has been minimal. I've been releasing more information on Twitter than I have here. I should have the new roster available by later this evening.
All practice squad players are officially signed to that team's payroll and are employees of that team. Their contracts are still covered by the NFLPA however they have by-laws in their agreements that allow them to be signed by other teams at any time (as long as they are signed with the intent of being a full time squad member of their new team.) There's an exception for the International players though as the agreement gives their original team's the 1st right of those players.
All PS team members are salary based contracts starting at a minimum of like $8,000/week - however all PS players have the right to negotiate their contracts to make more.
They are not free agents.

* C Russell Bodine released from the Patriots
* LB Tuzar Skipper released from the Steelers
* LB Nate Stupar released from the Giants
Practice Squad Movement:
* I added all the PS players that were available in the game to their respective teams. QB Cardale Jones signing with the Seahawks PS included.
- I did my best to keep the PS players off of the main depth chart, but certain teams and certain positions make it almost impossible to do so. Especially when teams, such as the Ravens, only have a total of 4 defensive lineman on the main roster, the PS players are going to end up on the depth chart and eventually difficult to release down the road.
- The PS players were added in order to assist with more realistic play for those who enjoy pre-season in CFM as well as utilizing the PS feature after pre-season concludes.
- I will create PS players upon request, but will certainly add them as they're activated to primary rosters as well.
Ratings were adjusted to the free agency list. Several key free agent OVRs were lowered or adjusted in order to prevent a crazy influx of signings in CFM. Some things are inevitable though and it's impossible to work around.
* The fact that Andrew Luck shows up in CFM free agency no matter what drives my OCD insane. During testing, I always sign him to the Dolphins, lower his ratings completely, and then release him to free agency with a 12 OVR. He never signs to a team again. (It's up to you how you want to handle this.) He does not exist on this roster though.
- Equipment Edits will be on-going all season long. I lost all of my equipment edits from pre-season since I switched base rosters so I will be going through each week and making changes as they come.
I did update quite a few players from TNF the other night between the Packers and Bears. Trubisky, Jimmy Graham, Adrian Amos, Khalil Mack, Preston Smith, Kevin King and many others all received helmet and equipment edits.
I also added the recent helmet updates from @helmet_stalker as well. I have AB still with the Xenith helmet that he's supposedly going to wear, but I read an article today that AB is switching back to Air XP - so I will see what happens in New England.

* Cincinnati played exclusively in a 3-4 defense Sunday. Atkins, Billings and Glasgow played the line while Hubbard and Dunlap set the edge as OLBs. The team played well statistically and maintained pressure the whole game.
It appears that Cincy may revert back to the 3-4 quite often this season with only 4 active LBs so they are now officially a 3-4 defense on my roster until the team shows otherwise. In Play Now mode - you will need to set your defense to a 3-4 (do not use Taylor's default defensive playbook). In CFM just adjust your coaches scheme to a 3-4 and you're all set.
* Going back to my last update, I switched around Miami's LBs after they switched to a 3-4. In preseason Sam Eguavoen played exclusively at ROLB but played ONLY at LOLB in Game #1. Long story short, Miami's defensive depth chart was updated and corrected. Realistically, Miami's defense is very difficult to replicate in Madden. I was at the game and there was ZERO consistency in formations and/or placement. So my roster mimics the lineup as close as possible right now. Miami's offensive line also switched with Jesse Davis moving to LT and Davenport and Isidora to the right side.
~~ Nick Bosa moved to RE . He played almost exclusively there all game with great pressure on the QB while Dee Ford was across from him at LE.
~~ RT Kaleb McGary won the RT job in Atlanta . He was in direct competition with Ty Sambrailo all the way through Game 1.
~~ Base RB, 3rd Down RB and PWHB depth charts were adjusted for a few teams including the Redskins, Dolphins, Buccaneers and a couple others.
Injured Reserve movement: DT Malik Jackson , QB Nick Foles , WR Devin Funchess , SS Justin Evans & RT Marcus Gilbert were placed on season ending I.R. and removed from their depth charts.
:popcorn:
* Several players are being released over the 1st two weeks of the season from I.R. with injury settlements. As mentioned in a previous update about pros and cons with EA's roster(s), a majority of these players are unable to be released from the roster since EA has restrictions attached to I.R. players. You can neither trade nor release any of these players so I do apologize for this, however myself and other custom roster creators have zero control over this issue unless we constantly use EA's roster each week (not happening.)
Players released that I'm unable to remove from their teams on my roster: LB Tre Lamar , CB Phillip Gaines , DB Brandon Bryant , RB Matt Dayes , C Aaron Neary & a few others.
** Equipment & Helmet Edits are always ongoing but players such as Le'Veon Bell, John Ross III, Andy Dalton, Nick Bosa, Dee Ford, Earl Thomas, Vernon Davis, Jordan Howard, DeVante Parker, Mitch Morse, Jason Peters, Harrison Butker and many many more received corrections.
Shouldn't have to uninstall the quiting and restarting trick a few pages back works.
Thanks so much for the roasters. Is this the last update, just checking before I start my franchise?

I’m glad the quitting and restarting worked for you and it may work for others but it never worked for me - the uninstall and reinstall is the only time I have been successful and that only occurred off of multiple attempts
Thanks so much for the roasters. Is this the last update, just checking before I start my franchise?
I do larger updates once every 1.5 weeks or so, but I try and keep the roster up to date on a daily basis to the best of my abilities. As far as CFM goes it's up to you because the roster is constantly being edited.
Updates are going to be slower for the next 2 weeks because of promotional testing at work so my time will be limited until the end of the month.
Appreciate the support.

First, thank you for your time and effort. Rosters are great!
Quick question. How do you create the injuries? Or do just use the latest roster and go from there?
Thank you sir!

Thank you sir!
Every roster update moving forward will be utilizing the week 1 roster update, so whichever players that were on official I.R. at that time (which is done by EA only, not me) will unfortunately remain. If I continue to utilize weekly updates by EA the number of players on official I.R. will increase - which I cant stand because you cant trade/remove these players.
For newer season-ending injuries, I try and have the player completely removed from the depth chart (Ben Roethlisberger is a great example most recently). That way it leaves the user the opportunity to still use that player if they decide but also has the player removed if they want a more realistic "Play Now" experience.
Jeff Driskel was recently signed by the Lions but hes on official I.R. still on the Bengals roster (thus my case and point of why I cant stand official EA/Madden updates.) I have a plan in place - it should be completed by Thursday evening on the next large update

Appreciate the support but I don't believe custom roster creators should be accepting money - just my opinion but I do appreciate the offer.
The project isn't dead, I've been trying to keep the roster updated on a daily basis in regards to transactions but other changes have been slow because my life has been beyond hectic lately.
If you're seeing AB on the raiders, then you're not looking at my roster. AB has been off the Raiders roster since early September and has also been the case on my custom roster so make sure you have my actual roster downloaded and then loaded. He currently sits in free agency (reverted back to #84) on my roster - and I'm monitoring his situation as we speak because he's unofficially threatening to retire from the NFL as of this morning.
Here's just a summary only (there are many more transactions and changes that I've done but I'm not listing all of them). If you see any mistakes or want me to make any changes, let me know and I'll get to it ASAP. Jersey # corrections will be going on later this evening when I get back home.
* QB David Fales signed to the Jets
* OG Adam Pankey signed to the Packers
* OT Sam Young signed to the 49ers
* DE Taco Charlton signed to the Dolphins (claimed off waivers)
* DE/OLB Noah Spence signed to the Redskins
* LB Ray-Ray Armstrong signed to the Saints
* S Juston Burris signed to the Browns (claimed off waivers)
* S Doug Middleton signed to the Dolphins
* WR Marvin Hall promoted to active roster
* TE Darrell Daniels has been promoted to active roster
* TE Evan Baylis promoted to active roster
* OLB Willie Harvey promoted to active roster
* P Matt Wile has been promoted to active roster
* RB Spencer Ware released from the Colts
* WR Antonio Brown released from the Patriots (switched back to #84 jersey in FA)
* WR Chris Lacy released from the Lions
* OL Jeremy Vujnovich released from the Cardinals
* OL John Wetzel released from the Falcons
* OL Bryan Witzmann released from the Dolphins

* RB Darius Jackson signed to the Colts
* WR Keon Hatcher signed to the Packers
* DT Taylor Stallworth signed to the Saints
* MLB Scooby Wright signed to the Patriots
* RB David Williams released from the Colts
* TE Alize Mack released from the Saints
* DE Gerri Green released from the Patriots
:flag:
* The following players have been placed on season-ending I.R. and have been removed from their team's depth chart: WR Trent Taylor , TE David Njoku , OG Lane Taylor , OT Jordan Mailata , OLB Christian Kirksey & CB Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie
* QB Josh Rosen is now the starting QB
* QB Daniel Jones is now the starting QB
* Bengals defensive depth chart corrected. I went back and watched game tape from the last 2 games and I had Sam Hubbard and Carlos Dunlap on the incorrect sides. As mentioned in a previous update, the Bengals have been utilizing a 3-4 defense and Dunlap and Hubbard have been setting the edge at OLB standing up, so please stop sending me hate mail in private message that the Bengals depth chart online doesn't match my roster. I'm fully aware of it, however actually watch their games and tape and you'll see why. All you have to do is switch Cincy to a 3-4 scheme in Franchise mode or use a 3-4 defensive playbook in Play Now mode and all your problems are solved. The 2 of you who sent me the private messages and then gave me a dislike - you know who you are. Next time I'll call you out individually with screen shots.
* The Lions WR depth chart was messed up for some reason but I went back in and corrected it. Not sure what caused Danny Amendola to disappear from the depth chart but it's corrected.
* Ratings Update: Several players received rating edits. Of course many of these players received OVR adjustments in the process. A combination of 2 things are included: a.) I've gone through EA's ratings updates over the past 2 weeks and have taken strong consideration of their "Big Movement" players updates. I either duplicated or did my own adjustments. b.) I went through game tape the last 2 weeks and have updated quite a few #3 and #2 RBs that aren't getting enough love in my opinion from EA. Offensive lineman were also included with edits. I know the Vikings run blocking stats received updates as well as players such as Ereck Flowers and other various lineman who EA neglected were all touched up. These updates included defensive players as well. I don't have any YouTube or other ways of communication to explain my adjustments but you will see several players different from EA.
Once again - if you have any concerns, suggestions and what not - I AM AN OPEN DOOR so please feel free to contribute.
* Equipment Edits - Still ongoing - every week I go through social media, watch games religiously and constantly go through and update players as I come across them. Obviously I can't correct all 1,696+ players across the league - so if you want a player corrected let me know and I'll get it done.
* Created/Added Players: A couple players are now on active rosters that do not exist in Madden, however I will be creating them and adding them soon. I already added OLB Willie Harvey & OG Keaton Sutherland , but I also need to add WR Greg Ward & FB Jakob Johnson . Jakob Johnson has zero custom faces/hair in Madden that match him or his skin complexion, so I may hold off on creating him since he will be released immediately after James Develin returns from injury.
Side Note: I have no idea what I'm going to do with Antonio Brown just yet. My likely decision will be to lower his OVR down to 12 so he's not picked up in Franchise Mode while leaving him in free agency. He's 'Unofficially' telling people he's quitting the NFL so until it's official and on paper I do NOT want to remove him from the roster all together. I will keep you posted and what changes I make when I do.

* LS/TE Jon Condo has announced his retirement from the NFL . He's been removed from the roster.
* Week 3 ratings adjustments were included in this update. As I've previously mentioned before, larger ratings updates will go out every 2 weeks, so next week will have a much larger +/- to player OVRs. This week, players who stood out and were highlighted received tweaks on top of their Week 2 ratings adjustments that I did in the last major update.
* WR Fred Brown , LB Justin Phillips and FB Jakob Johnson were added to the roster in this update. Jakob Johnson does not have any custom faces pre-loaded by EA that resemble him properly, but he does have proper appearance and equipment in game when being played with.
* Still haven't made a decision on Antonio Brown yet in regards to what I'm going to do with him in free agency. I'm still likely going to lower his OVR quite a bit so he's not signed in free agency when you load CFM but that decision hasn't been done yet.
* I lowered Jordan Reed down to last on the depth chart . It's looking as if his career may be over but the team hasn't placed him on any reserved lists just yet. I'll monitor the situation but Vernon Davis should hold the starting TE spot for the remainder of the season.
* Just a reminder that if a player is expected to miss 4 weeks or so due to injury I will not be removing them from the depth chart. These rosters need to be readily able to load into CFM so unless the person has a seaon-ending injury with I.R. status I will likely keep them on their appropriate depth chart spot.
kane might not add LB justin Phillips to the game he is still on raiders pra squad outlads jakob johnson should be added with deviln going on I R will be instering to see how ea adds him the hardest guys for me to make is the int's guys

* Additional players received ratings edits tonight. Patrick Mahomes was included in regards to his new 99 club achievement. Several of EA's Week 4 "Big Movers" along with approximately 20 other players all received ratings tweaks. As a reminder, I do not agree with a lot of EA's ratings, so although I mimic a few of their changes, I often vary from what they do. QBs like Gardner Minshew, Daniel Jones, Kyle Allen etc - all different rating systems from EA. If you agree or disagree with my ratings - I totally understand and am open eared to suggestions/corrections. I only ask that you provide legitimate reasoning, proof or explanation. :headbang2
Equipment Edits continue - As I typically do: i browse through social media and basically update as they come and as I go. I also utilize @Helmet_Stalker's updates as well in regards to helmets. Once again, if you see any mistakes or want certain players corrected immediately as opposed to waiting, let me know and I'll get the edits done as soon as I get to them.
* RB Jon Hilliman was created/added to the roster tonight. I have him at a 66 OVR which is MUCH kinder than what EA will give him. He played poorly in pre-season so I understand the concept, but take it for what it's worth - at least for now.
When you start a franchise with ANY roster, the depth charts will be altered some. This is a known issue with EA/Madden and difficult to completely work around. You have to go back in and edit as necessary.
Remember to load the roster first > then as you start CFM import current roster (dont import the pre-season roster option).
Make pre-season as your CFM starting point to help avoid unnecessary cuts and signings done by the computer.
And yes, unfortunately you would have to control all 32 NFL teams in order to avoid the computer making alterations to the remaining 31 teams in the league - but once again this falls on EA/Madden and has nothing to do with my actual roster.
Hope this helps.

Based off Week 3 and Week 4 performances, several offensive and defensive players received ratings tweaks. As a reminder, I do observe Madden weekly ratings however I also go off of my own assessments as well. You will recognize the most significant changes with QBs and WRs, however I also mimic several of EA's "Big Mover" changes and will adjust accordingly. I am always open ears with ratings and welcome any input, suggestions or discussion.
* Several depth chart corrections were made. A lot of offensive line movement was made this past week with injuries and I went through and updated as needed. Defensive fronts also received tweaks.
* Equipment edits continue. I go through game day photos each week and try and update as I go. If any player received rating edits, they also receive equipment edits. Thanks to @Helmet_Stalker for the assists as well.

On Friday I will go back and update a much larger portion of players, so bare with me until then.

:flag: This was the largest ratings edit I've done to the roster since Week 2. Madden's 'Big Movers' edits were included but I also updated a very large amount of players outside as well. QBs, RBs, TE, DEs and CBs were focused on the most.
* The following players have been placed on I.R. and removed from their team's depth charts: RB Corey Clement , FB Jakob Johnson , TE James O'Shaughnessy , OL Mike Pouncey , OL Zack Bailey , OL Ethan Pocic , DL Kemoko Turay , DT Zavier Williams , CB De'Vante Bausby , S Johnathan Cyprien
* Additional players were created and added to the roster: WR Duke Williams , MLB Noah Dawkins , C Nate Trewyn
* QB Case Keenum promoted back to starting QB . Dwayne Haskins demoted to #2.
* Several offensive line and defensive lineman received tweaks as well.
As I mentioned in my previous post - with my wife's pregnancy I'm getting less and less available for these updates. I will do what I can when I can but I can't make promises. Please feel free to make recommendations, suggestions or advise me on mistakes. I will get to those quicker as I monitor frequently. Take care! :usa:
What I posted is correct. Cyprien was placed on I.R. 2 days ago by the Falcons. The trade for Duke took place back on September 30th which I had already done on a previous update.
it said before the edit. all good man, keep up the good work!:cheers:
A J Johnson needs a boost 61 to 68 all over the field so does DT Mike Puerrll 64-67 LB M Reed 62-66 D Walker i think he is a 70 so 71-or 72

* Several key offensive players from Week 6 received ratings updates. As a reminder: I update offensive players weekly and do a large defensive & offensive ratings adjustment every 2 weeks.
I've been requested to list a handful of player adjustments that I do so here's just a few names that received edits: QB Lamar Jackson 79-80 (+1 OVR), WR Terry McLaurin 75-78 (+3 OVR), Kyler Murray 76-78 (+2 OVR), RT Chuma Edoga 66-68 (+2 OVR), QB Kirk Cousins 80-81 (+1 OVR), TE Hunter Henry 85-86 (+1 OVR), QB Matt Ryan 90-91 (+1 OVR). Like I said, this is just a quick preview, but quite a few players received edits as they have every week.
Yes I do lower players OVRs too, and often, but I don't list all my changes. WR Paul Richardson is just a quick example of a player who was lowered this week. Feel free to check the roster and provide input and suggestions. I'm always open eared. I do a lot more than I list.
Retirements:
* OLB/EDGE Connor Barwin officially announced his retirement from the NFL and has been removed from the roster.
Yes, I still do weekly equipment changes. This is one area that few people contribute towards, so I still rely on social media game day photos as well as @Helmet_Stalker for corrections. Also shot out to @Equipment_Guru who's done a much better job this year compared to the previous 2 years on updates.
brock o has also retired
Yeah he's on the retired list sitting at the bottom of free agency with a 12 OVR. Updated it 2 days ago.
* RB Tra Carson signed to the Lions (claimed off waivers)

* The following players have been placed on I.R. and removed from the depth chart: WR Travis Benjamin , TE David Morgan , OT Seantrel Henderson , SS John Johnson
* CB Darqueze Dennard placed back on the depth chart . Cincy activated him from the PUP list yesterday.
* LT Russell Okung placed back as starting LT . He announced he's been cleared to play after recovering from a pulmonary embolism.
* OL Kendall Lamm promoted to starting LT . LT Greg Robinson has officially been demoted by the team.
* QB Ryan Fitzpatrick has been moved back to starting QB .
* OT Chris Clark signed to the Texans, however due to the quantity of official I.R. players already on Houston's roster I am unable to add him. This issue is due to EA/Madden's random restriction and limited amount of players they allow on a roster with official I.R. status. Out of my control for the time being, but I will try and get a workaround going. EA seriously needs to let go of this feature.
* CBs Marcus Peters, Jalen Ramsey, Troy Hill & Brandon Carr had their jersey numbers corrected. After the trades, the NFL agreed for them to alter their jersey #s. I plan to go through the last week's worth of roster updates and get all the newly signed jersey numbers fixed, so yes I'm aware of it and plan to address it.
Additional ratings edits were included with this update. I went through EA's most recent updated ratings and mimicked quite a few (primarily from the 'Big movers'.) My ratings do vary from them however so understand I'm not here to copy EA. I do have several players either +1, sometimes +2 more than EA's ratings and also have players often -1, or -2 from EA. If you have any questions feel free to ask or make suggestions. I'm easy going with this stuff.
I'm on duty at the fire department today, but at some point today or tonight I plan to do a major overhaul of jersey numbers of recently signed players. Got quite a few to do.
UPDATE: jersey # corrections will be Tuesday

:flag: New England's defense received the largest amount of team edits, so as much as it stung to do so as a Dolphins fan, there's no denying what they've been doing up to this point in the season. Also players like Brett Maher who's been kicking multiple 60+ yarders had his kick power and accuracy increased. Your Player of the Week winners obviously received some recognition as well. If you have any suggestions please contact me and I will revise ratings quickly depending on the argument.
* Ratings changes were done to a large bulk of free agents. Several free agents had their OVRs lowered in this process.
* A handful of players were created and added to the roster. Players such as DE Kasim Edebali , WR Chrsitian Blake , DT Anthony Rush were on today's update. I plan to create CB Shakial Taylor , RB Craig Reynolds & S Jake Gervase soon also.

As a reminder, even though I follow some of Madden's changes, I choose to follow my own evaluations as well so while I monitor EA's "Big Movers" and weekly changes, I add my own variations. QBs, RBs & TEs will always have the most notable differences.
* Equipment edits were done to several players from Week 8. Thanks again to @Helmet_Stalker for constantly giving out updates for helmets as those corrections have been applied also (Charles Clay, Greg Olsen, Corey Bojorquez, Levine Toilolo etc etc etc).
Appreciate the comment and support. I've actually been behind the 8-ball lately and haven't been able to update like I have in previous years. I will try and get an update out tonight but if I cant I will have to wait until Thursday. My wife and I are expecting a baby in a few weeks so it's been hectic lately.
Not to mention this website or at least this portion of the website has been pretty dead compared to previous years. Makes my motivation dwindle when theres minimal Community involvement.
I'll get an update out soon

As I've mentioned in the past, I do monitor EA's rating changes, but I also do my own edits based off of a combination of actual gameday observation along with weekly NFL statistics & user suggestion/recommendations. If you feel a player is way too low or need adjustment, please let me know and I will gladly look into a correction if needed. Whether you go by EA's ratings, my own, TFG's or anybody else - no matter what - all Madden ratings are subjective 100%. There is no perfect rating system so be open doored to discussion first before ratings get changed.
* Several teams received depth chart corrections including the Jaguars, Dolphins, Rams, Cardinals, Redskins, Steelers, Lions and Jets.
* QB Nick Foles placed back as starting QB . The team announced the move after his return from injury.
* LT Trent Williams has been removed from the depth chart . He was activated by the team finally, but it was announced he will not play this season.
* WR N'Keal Harris was placed back on the depth chart . He's been activated from injury.
* QB Chad Henne was placed back on the depth chart . He's also been activated from injury.
* RB Derrius Guice was placed back on main roster . He's been activated by the team and should assume change of pace duties.
* LG Max Garcia placed back on depth chart . He's returned from injury and activated by the team.
* S Ibraheim Campbell placed back on depth chart . He's also returned from injury.
I've added 2-3 players to the game that did not exist on the base roster from Week 1. MLB Paul Worrilow was the most recent addition.
I have to add a couple more players still (likely tomorrow) including RB Tony Brooks-James , LB James Vaughters & WR Michael Walker .
I wasnt able to make jersey # corrections like I wanted so those will be taken care of tomorrow along with the missing players mentioned above.
He's completley gone from my roster as it currently is. My roster is based off the Week 1 roster update EA provided so he was completley removed at that time.
I haven't seen any updates to the glitch but I believe he still shows up in free agency during Franchise Mode. I could be wrong...
* I fixed him on my roster.
* The following players have been placed on I.R. and removed from the depth chart(s): RB Ito Smith , TE Chris Herndon , OG Brian Winters , C Brian Allen , OT Martinas Rankin , DE Ronald Blair , DE Zach Allen , DE Emmanuel Ogbah , DT Daylon Mack , DT Kevin Strong , LB Bryce Hager , SS Karl Joseph
I will be observing Madden's rating changes tomorrow (Thursday) as well but for the most part all my edits are included in this update. Thanks to the few of you who have been private messaging me on Xbox with suggestions and recommendations. While everyone is mostly informative and helpful, there's always a couple users have nothing positive to say ever and feel like criticizing when they've contributed absolutely nothing....
* Several players have been activated from PUP or I.R. and placed back on depth charts. A few players added back to the depth charts are: WR John Ross , WR Keith Kirkwood , WR Devin Funchess , TE Jordan Thomas , TE Garrett Celek , OLB Marquel Lee , OLB Andrew Van Ginkel etc.
* The following players were created/added to the roster: RB/FB Khari Blasingame , WR Cody Hollister , OLB/EDGE Kahzin Daniels & CB Kyron Brown . I will update these players with official Madden ratings once they've been added by EA. I still need to add CB Mazzi Wilkins , but I didn't have time tonight.
* Tampa's defensive depth chart received some updates. JPP moved to ROLB/RRE after rushing exclusively at the LT all game. Barrett moved to LOLB/LLE.
* Arizona also received defensive depth chart updates. Chandler Jones has been moved to ROLB/RRE as well after exclusively battling with the opposing LT. Suggs was switched to LOLB/LLE.
* Several offensive lines received depth chart corrections after injuries. I.E. Tom Compton is now the starting RG after replacing Winters . About 6 offensive lines were touched up.
* Several jersey number corrections were made. Obviously if you see a mistake let me know and I'll get it corrected immediately. I went back through the last couple updates and adjusted all jersey numbers there were available. I will update the numbers of today's transactions later this week.
* Very little equipment changes were made on this update due to lack of time. I did however update all the helmets for players listed by @Helmet_Stalker. I will focus more on equipment later.
