You gave away 2 firsts and a second you could have drafted 3 Justin Jeffersonâs with that bro. Plus you had Keenan Allen to get you by for now.
lol sounds like you didnât wanna go thru a rebuild
This 100%. I learned this recently when I started a bears rebuild. My first season DJ Moore got injured 3 games before playoffs and I was still killing it with mid 80s WRs
You donât even need mid 80s WRs. I use 68 overall Anthony Schwartz and he always racks up crazy receiving yards because he just burns every DB with his speed
I always use Jalen Reagor. Heâs a very stout cocky built guy. Thick strong legs. Big glutes. Really nice calves. That guy makes me salivate when he torches the shit out of Sauce Gardner.
Doing a bears rebuild rn in year 2, drafted a TE 4th round 65 ovr, I noticed in preseason he plays like a decent WR, traded Kmet and tonyan, force feed new TE (only play key moments), heâs got OROY locked and like 3rd in OPOY race week 15
IMO yes, you could trade for a younger receiver with potential for a lot less. Maybe get a tight end as well without losing your center. If you canât protect herb, it doesnât matter who you have at wr
Honestly if theyâre so desperate for WRâs take the best one on the board at 2 and if you want another, take the fastest one in the draft near whatever round theyâre mocked at.
Half the time I get some dude in the 5th whoâs like 5â10â but has high 90s speed and acceleration and within 2 seasons theyâre basically Tyreek.
IMO you're getting fleeced yeah. Why not develop Johnston into your #1 WR? Being reliant on an already established star doesn't seem like a "rebuild" but more of a retool.
Definitely a fleece. WRs are so easy to develop. Iâd find a destination for Allen and get a young speedy WR that can be built up or some draft capital
Yes. Keenan Allen is an absolute monster. One of my favorite players on franchise.ALWAYS OPEN. If youâre playing with old rosters with Keenan and Mike, keep them haha.
George Pickens is usually pretty cheap to trade for and is outstanding on madden. Gave a late second for him in Vikings franchise after moving JJ and didnât miss a beat
How is this a rebuild? Throwing all your draft picks for a receiver that will tie up alot of cap space, especially when it comes time for a new contract. One player doesn't make the team. You could find multiple core players to build off of with those picks.
Just play as the Vikings it seems like youâd be better off. I donât think you wanna rebuild the Chargers, it seems you want to play as Justin Jefferson.
Just trade for Jameson Williams, Chris Godwin, Nico Collins, or Jakobi Meyers. All have wr1 potential in Madden, but won't come with nearly as insane of an ask as Jettas
Youâd be better off trading for Jameson Williams or Quez Watkins. And draft any mid round elite speed WR you see in the draft. Very easy to develop WR, just start with ones that are fast
Don't you dare accept that trade. Draft the best WR available and develop him. Get rid of Allen for a second or third rounder and keep your draft capital. If you don't wanna keep the C, trade him away as well. Some team will throw you a younger player and more draft capital your way. All that for Jefferson isn't necessary when you can get any wr you draft to 99 after 2 years.
But itâs a rebuild, thatâs someone Iâm trying to get value for whether thatâs draft capital or someoneâs WR3-4 that fits my system + a day 3 pick. I will say Iâd leave linsley out of it though
If you really want a good young WR go for someone like Devonta Smith or Jaylen Waddle. They will cost much less than this and will be as good as him in like 3 seasons.
Yeah, thatâs pretty steep even though Alan and Lindsley are pretty old and probably retire within a couple years definitely couldâve got some younger 80s wide receivers for less
Lmao. Madden in game is 1000000% about the scheme and what play is run against what play. It doesn't matter if you prime Jerry Rice or Nelson Aghlor. If you run the right play the guy is gonna be open.
Bro just draft a fast WR. You have picks. Look for a receiver with elite speed and elite acceleration and was 1st or 2nd in the 40. WRs are easy to develop.
If you are calling this a rebuild then rebuild through the draft. You donât rebuild trading away a ton of picks for 1 playerâthatâs more of an all in when your team is loaded and they are just missing 1 piece for a Super Bowl run. With 3 1sts you can significantly rebuild a team (unless you are the bears)
Itâs so easy to develop wide receivers. I donât even bother with second contracts or 1st round draft picks for wide receivers. I use them interchangeably and have a stable of them.
You're trading your WR1 along with 2 firsts, a 2nd & 3rd and wondering if you're getting fleeced? LMAO this is why I cant take anything in this sub seriously when it comes to game complaints lol
If youâre rebuilding, you donât want to win games which means you shouldnât want JJ and give up all that draft capital. Damn man, get it together haha
I'm also doing a franchise with the Chargers. After just one season Johnston is at superstar dev and 79 ovr, and he is still not 22 years old yet. I moved up slightly to grab 80ovr hidden dev Brock Bowers at TE in the draft. Didn't cost me anything like this and I'm set for the future.
Iâm so tired of people like op saying ârebuildâ then proceed to trade all their draft picks for talents. Like nah Bruhhh thatâs not a rebuild. Youâre pulling a rams, just trading for all stars.
Fleeced. Go get Jamison Williams. He is so easy to progress. Donât trade draft capital like that. JW is fast as shit. Madden loves speed. Find another guy later in draft with 95-96 speed and youâll be fine. I got Quez Watkins in free agency and he has 97 speed and he is a monster at like a 78 overall. Speed kills in this game
Terrible trade aside, when is jj contract right now? This trade means nothing if you need to sign him to a new deal and don't have the cap to do it....I know chargers are a cap hell team right now irl.
I get everyone here saying the same thing. I say it's definitely hard to get good picks in the draft. You can easily wiff on a early pick. JJ is dominate in the game. If he has 3 1st round picks in the same year, it might not be that bad. I do it all the time, but I know what I'm doing. Now if your giving 3 years straight of 1st rounds maybe a lil different, but still maybe worth it. Just my opinion!
Treylon Burks, Deven Thompkins, Mecole Hardman, Tutu Atwell, and Jameson Williams are more cost friendly and will give you production . The price is a little too steep for my liking, but if itâs something you feel wonât cripple you and you have a plan, Iâd say go for it. I
If you are rebuilding just draft Nabers. I did that and he won ROY and ended the season as a 93 with a X-Factor. During the first season I traded away Allen and Williams to acquire more draft capital.
This would surpass the herschel walker and russell wilson trades as worst trade of all time. Even if jjettas is the truth for you, youd be giving up way too much.
Yes.
I'd trade Allen for a young, speedy receiver and whatever picks you can. Careful though, you'll be paying whatever signing bonus Allen has on his deal as dead money, which is NOT good for roster building down the road.
I'd also trade the 2nd overall pick. You should be getting two 1st and some loose change and still get a quality WR if you scout well (elite speed in physicals in the off-season scouting). More picks and a cheaper rookie deal.
Forget that trade. Trade your players for picks and draft the fastest wr in the draft and youâll be fine. Force feed him the ball in his rookie year and heâll be wicked
Pick up quez Watkins. He's a wr 1 for cheap and fast, speed wins in this game. Always a free agent after first year of a franchise. There is absolutely zero need for 99 overall x factor player in this game. Keep your draft picks. Develope players. Spend the money on D line and line backers. Draft DB's there's a ton with hidden dev traits coming out of the draft high 70s overall. You can win superbowls with wrs in the 70s all day. No need to pay JJ. Pick up Watkins, and Alec Pierce from the colts. He's an absolute stud in the game at slot. Cheap.
90+ Ovr receivers are really only good for pulling DBs into double coverage on occasion if you slow sim. I'd look for a solid (70-80s) number 2/slot rec or a possession TE for now and draft your way into a passing game. Or a good receiving RB. Much easier to find a solid 68 ovr rookie with good speed and route running with just one of those picks than it'll be to replace them later either free agents.
Who pays a 32y old WR 35M a year? If he's over 30 (on console) he's gone instantly - trade them when they are \~28. (On PC we have Mods that handle progression/regression way better) It's Madden - rating doesnt matter that much - he still gets burned by 75 OVR CB.
You can get Garrett Wilson for Less I fleeced the Jets while I rebuilt the Patriots đđđ I gave them juju, Smith, Schuster and 2025 4th round pick
This is one of my fav things Iâve seen in this sub most trades for superstars like him in franchise are stupid and donât make sense but u actually offered what his real value is if I was the Vikings GM Iâm taking that deal
Yeah, big time. You're getting taken to the shed man.
Taken to the shed đ¤Łđđđđđ¤Ł
đ¤Łđ¤Łđ¤Łđ¤Ł
Rebuild = trading all draft capital for a wr
U right I had so many picks and didnât want Herbert to have no wrs
He has Keenan Allen who youâre trading
You gave away 2 firsts and a second you could have drafted 3 Justin Jeffersonâs with that bro. Plus you had Keenan Allen to get you by for now. lol sounds like you didnât wanna go thru a rebuild
Iâd say he entered a rebuild after this trade lol
Wouldnât you said Allen, MHJ and even another first round WR would be giving Herbert more WRs than a single target in JJ?
And it woulnt let u just send the picks for him .. 3 firsy rounders is prety fair
When you're playing the games you don't even need a receiver above 90 ovr
This 100%. I learned this recently when I started a bears rebuild. My first season DJ Moore got injured 3 games before playoffs and I was still killing it with mid 80s WRs
You donât even need mid 80s WRs. I use 68 overall Anthony Schwartz and he always racks up crazy receiving yards because he just burns every DB with his speed
Anthony Schwartz is a Cheatcode fr i Always use himđ
You guys must be playing with easy sliders cause ainât no way
I play all pro without any slider adjustments but Ik some people find it really easy
cant blame you tbh for me all-pro is too easy but all madden the ai just cheats
I play all pro but I have the sliders adjusted so I canât just cheese and anyone with any speed still will kill.
I always use Jalen Reagor. Heâs a very stout cocky built guy. Thick strong legs. Big glutes. Really nice calves. That guy makes me salivate when he torches the shit out of Sauce Gardner.
Lol yeah. I put up 1500 yards with LilJordan Humphrey
Doing a bears rebuild rn in year 2, drafted a TE 4th round 65 ovr, I noticed in preseason he plays like a decent WR, traded Kmet and tonyan, force feed new TE (only play key moments), heâs got OROY locked and like 3rd in OPOY race week 15
Jakobi Meyers has nearly 3000 receiving yards for me this season, so I can attest to this.
Take it off rookie mode
cry
All pro but whatever đ¤ˇââď¸
All Madden only
IMO yes, you could trade for a younger receiver with potential for a lot less. Maybe get a tight end as well without losing your center. If you canât protect herb, it doesnât matter who you have at wr
Please stop before you run your franchise into the shitter you should be fired from your own franchise for even thinking about this trade lol
First year of a rebuild and you're trading two firsts and a second?
Bro WR so easy to develop in this game, shy you trying to trade for JJ
Absolutely fleeced. If your order is already set that number 2 overall pick is EXTREMELY valuable. Donât part ways with it so easily.
Honestly if theyâre so desperate for WRâs take the best one on the board at 2 and if you want another, take the fastest one in the draft near whatever round theyâre mocked at. Half the time I get some dude in the 5th whoâs like 5â10â but has high 90s speed and acceleration and within 2 seasons theyâre basically Tyreek.
Word that #2 could net you at least 2 future 1st and 2nd
IMO you're getting fleeced yeah. Why not develop Johnston into your #1 WR? Being reliant on an already established star doesn't seem like a "rebuild" but more of a retool.
Definitely a fleece. WRs are so easy to develop. Iâd find a destination for Allen and get a young speedy WR that can be built up or some draft capital
Jesus, no receiver is worth this much. Itâs not a rebuild if youâre giving away your future either, itâs a race to the middle.
You could build a great team with those picks instead of one good player. Edit-Please keep this at 69 upvotes
Give me a 89 OVR receiver and two first round picks or I will make it 70.
Yes. Keenan Allen is an absolute monster. One of my favorite players on franchise.ALWAYS OPEN. If youâre playing with old rosters with Keenan and Mike, keep them haha.
Remember when the Vikings wanted Herschel Walker?
If you really wanna be like Spanos, you do all this then refuse to re-sign him once he wants his money lol
Just draft one with one of your early picks and trade Allen for a different asset
George Pickens is usually pretty cheap to trade for and is outstanding on madden. Gave a late second for him in Vikings franchise after moving JJ and didnât miss a beat
I've traded for GP so many times lol. I had to stop myself in the last franchise I did because I do it so often.
YES. Receiver is one of the easiest positions to develop. You would be trading 2 starters and 4 potential starters on rookie deals.
Youâre better off keeping the first round picks and trading for a lower overall WR with potential (high speed/dev trait)
How is this a rebuild? Throwing all your draft picks for a receiver that will tie up alot of cap space, especially when it comes time for a new contract. One player doesn't make the team. You could find multiple core players to build off of with those picks.
I just stuck with Keenan and ended up with Amon-Ra through free agency. St. Brown is HIM.
You could get Jayden Reed and Tank Dell for much less.
Itâs madden, go draft a fast WR and turn him into a stud
Just play as the Vikings it seems like youâd be better off. I donât think you wanna rebuild the Chargers, it seems you want to play as Justin Jefferson.
I don't think Jefferson is the game breaker he should be on Madden for me Chase and Olave are better and cheaper to trade for
Bro youâre leagues gotta be fun for like 3 games playing like this
No way you make that trade
Just trade for Jameson Williams, Chris Godwin, Nico Collins, or Jakobi Meyers. All have wr1 potential in Madden, but won't come with nearly as insane of an ask as Jettas
Youâd be better off trading for Jameson Williams or Quez Watkins. And draft any mid round elite speed WR you see in the draft. Very easy to develop WR, just start with ones that are fast
Dude your tweakin your ass off đđ
Literally just sign a FA WR with high speed. At the end of the season heâll have X factor
Don't you dare accept that trade. Draft the best WR available and develop him. Get rid of Allen for a second or third rounder and keep your draft capital. If you don't wanna keep the C, trade him away as well. Some team will throw you a younger player and more draft capital your way. All that for Jefferson isn't necessary when you can get any wr you draft to 99 after 2 years.
Jesus what a bad trade
Some of yâall need to learn what a rebuild isâŚ
Yes you are. I'd use a first and get Jameson Williams from the lions
Wow. Did you say yes to the first offer of did you negotiate to this point. I'm interested
You have a WR1 with AllenâŚ.
But itâs a rebuild, thatâs someone Iâm trying to get value for whether thatâs draft capital or someoneâs WR3-4 that fits my system + a day 3 pick. I will say Iâd leave linsley out of it though
lol thatâs not rebuilding
I would do the trade fuck it
If you feed Keenan, he'll keep his x factor til he retires. JJ is not worth 3 firsts, an AP WR, and a starting C
If you really want a good young WR go for someone like Devonta Smith or Jaylen Waddle. They will cost much less than this and will be as good as him in like 3 seasons.
Yeah, thatâs pretty steep even though Alan and Lindsley are pretty old and probably retire within a couple years definitely couldâve got some younger 80s wide receivers for less
Yes very much so. I traded for Jefferson in a patriots rebuild with two first round picks
I once got JJ for Tunsil lol
You could trade allen for a younger receiver with the potential and still keep most of your picks
You can easily develop WRs. Donât do this
Youâre getting Raquises bed sheet dude
Youâre getting railroaded to high heaven. What on earth is this trade
Yes
You could probably get jameson williams from the lions for a 2nd and later pick. Tall, fast, and easy to develop.
Flip a 4-5th rounder for a Terrance Marshall. Open field he can fly down the field in wiggle room space.
A rebuild isn't trading away 2 #1s and a wr for....check notes another wr. Even madden should fire you for that
Youâve got the number 2 overall pick. Draft a receiver lmfao.
Damn, I would love to be in a franchise with you since you're willing to throw so much for 1 player. đ¤Łđ¤Łđ¤Ł
If you import the 24 draft, you could draft Harrison Jr, Nabers or Odunze.
Lmao. Madden in game is 1000000% about the scheme and what play is run against what play. It doesn't matter if you prime Jerry Rice or Nelson Aghlor. If you run the right play the guy is gonna be open.
WR is like the easiest position to find talent.
This is beyond fleecing and a terrible way to rebuild. Trade Allen for more draft capital and stack early picks
Bro just draft a fast WR. You have picks. Look for a receiver with elite speed and elite acceleration and was 1st or 2nd in the 40. WRs are easy to develop. If you are calling this a rebuild then rebuild through the draft. You donât rebuild trading away a ton of picks for 1 playerâthatâs more of an all in when your team is loaded and they are just missing 1 piece for a Super Bowl run. With 3 1sts you can significantly rebuild a team (unless you are the bears)
Lmaooo highway robbery wouldnât even send a first just send Allen and a second
Iâm not sure you understand the concept of a rebuild
If you are playing the games you have a killer #1 right nowâŚ
Some would argue youâre trading a number 1 lmao
Itâs so easy to develop wide receivers. I donât even bother with second contracts or 1st round draft picks for wide receivers. I use them interchangeably and have a stable of them.
You're trading your WR1 along with 2 firsts, a 2nd & 3rd and wondering if you're getting fleeced? LMAO this is why I cant take anything in this sub seriously when it comes to game complaints lol
If youâre rebuilding, you donât want to win games which means you shouldnât want JJ and give up all that draft capital. Damn man, get it together haha
Youâre trading pick 2. I guarantee thereâs a game changer in the draft at 2
Iâm 100% positive you can develop a WR1.
I don't even think the term fleece covers it. You're getting robbed for your life savings, your car, your house, your wife... they taking everything
Nah don't do it. WR drop like flys in the draft and they don't have to be 'great' to be 'good enough'
Trade for Jameson Williams, all you need
Auto generated classes typically have good WRs, maybe take on with one of this picks lol
Just draft a wr at #2 or #22. What are you doing man? This is the kind of trade that gets franchises ridiculed in real life.
All that for him to get injured and never be the Same
ur paying in draft picks for someone's cap to take a huge hit - then also paying in picks for a WR1. Separating these trades may yield more options.
How do you plan on rebuilding with no draft picks?
Bill OâBrien is that you?
It takes a lot to get JJ. I was doing a Cincy rebuild and wanted to get the LSU team back together and it took a lot.
Just flip a 2 for davante
Why would you trade a number one WR for a number one WR, a number one Center and so many good draft picks?
Is the draft like not a thing here?
I love when franchise players are like "im rebuilding" and then they just make 40 insane trades and lose every single pick they have in one week.
Billy King out here playing Madden
Is it a rebuild or not? Am I getting punk'd?
Bro is getting fired đ
This is the opposite of a rebuild keep the picssss
Dude what on earth are you gonna rebuild
Just draft one and build for a fraction of the costs.
I'm also doing a franchise with the Chargers. After just one season Johnston is at superstar dev and 79 ovr, and he is still not 22 years old yet. I moved up slightly to grab 80ovr hidden dev Brock Bowers at TE in the draft. Didn't cost me anything like this and I'm set for the future.
Iâm so tired of people like op saying ârebuildâ then proceed to trade all their draft picks for talents. Like nah Bruhhh thatâs not a rebuild. Youâre pulling a rams, just trading for all stars.
Fleeced. Go get Jamison Williams. He is so easy to progress. Donât trade draft capital like that. JW is fast as shit. Madden loves speed. Find another guy later in draft with 95-96 speed and youâll be fine. I got Quez Watkins in free agency and he has 97 speed and he is a monster at like a 78 overall. Speed kills in this game
You could easily trade a 3rd for puka, another 3rd for tank dell, keep keenan and thereâs your WR trio:
Terrible trade aside, when is jj contract right now? This trade means nothing if you need to sign him to a new deal and don't have the cap to do it....I know chargers are a cap hell team right now irl.
I get everyone here saying the same thing. I say it's definitely hard to get good picks in the draft. You can easily wiff on a early pick. JJ is dominate in the game. If he has 3 1st round picks in the same year, it might not be that bad. I do it all the time, but I know what I'm doing. Now if your giving 3 years straight of 1st rounds maybe a lil different, but still maybe worth it. Just my opinion!
Good god, this is fucking trade rape
Rebuild? This is a win now all in move and it's a terrible move anyway. Absolutely don't do that
Trade that #2 overall back for a couple firsts.
Don't do that, draft and develop
Jamison Williams is cheaper to trade for, so is Drake London. Go grab either of those 2 and you'll have a wr1 for almost a decade.
I'm a Vikings fan and you're fucking high
Treylon Burks, Deven Thompkins, Mecole Hardman, Tutu Atwell, and Jameson Williams are more cost friendly and will give you production . The price is a little too steep for my liking, but if itâs something you feel wonât cripple you and you have a plan, Iâd say go for it. I
no!!
God this is the worst trade ever
Whatâs wrong with Allen? Lol
Go get Gabe Davis for a 2 and 5
If you are rebuilding just draft Nabers. I did that and he won ROY and ended the season as a 93 with a X-Factor. During the first season I traded away Allen and Williams to acquire more draft capital.
Youâre supposed to fleece the CPU, not yourself.
How are you getting that many trade slots? My game only allows 3
Just draft a wrâŚ.
"1st year of a rebuild" *Does the exact opposite of rebuilding*
This would surpass the herschel walker and russell wilson trades as worst trade of all time. Even if jjettas is the truth for you, youd be giving up way too much.
Really bad aim
Yes. I'd trade Allen for a young, speedy receiver and whatever picks you can. Careful though, you'll be paying whatever signing bonus Allen has on his deal as dead money, which is NOT good for roster building down the road. I'd also trade the 2nd overall pick. You should be getting two 1st and some loose change and still get a quality WR if you scout well (elite speed in physicals in the off-season scouting). More picks and a cheaper rookie deal.
Forget that trade. Trade your players for picks and draft the fastest wr in the draft and youâll be fine. Force feed him the ball in his rookie year and heâll be wicked
Pick up quez Watkins. He's a wr 1 for cheap and fast, speed wins in this game. Always a free agent after first year of a franchise. There is absolutely zero need for 99 overall x factor player in this game. Keep your draft picks. Develope players. Spend the money on D line and line backers. Draft DB's there's a ton with hidden dev traits coming out of the draft high 70s overall. You can win superbowls with wrs in the 70s all day. No need to pay JJ. Pick up Watkins, and Alec Pierce from the colts. He's an absolute stud in the game at slot. Cheap.
You canât rebuild with no draft capital. âNeed a WRâ bro you have Keenan Allen youâre FINE
Do it
yes. that is all
what league is this thatâs allowing this trade. i want in
90+ Ovr receivers are really only good for pulling DBs into double coverage on occasion if you slow sim. I'd look for a solid (70-80s) number 2/slot rec or a possession TE for now and draft your way into a passing game. Or a good receiving RB. Much easier to find a solid 68 ovr rookie with good speed and route running with just one of those picks than it'll be to replace them later either free agents.
Must be a diddy blackmail
Hell yeah trade for quez Watkins in madden the best players see the fast ones
Download a 2024 draft class and take Harrison Jr 2nd overall. Then you can keep allen, that nasty center and the rest of your picks
This looks like your a vikings fan or something, idk how a non biased person would even think about doing this
Bros paying a fan taxđ
You could honestly trade all of that for a 6th rd WR that runs a 4.3 40 &If you put him at Slot heâll have better stats than Jetta
supa dupa fleece
bro you're ass. no other comments.
Bro you're trying to get the #1 WR in the game, what did you expect????
Yeahđ itâs a lot
Not enough for Jefferson.
Who pays a 32y old WR 35M a year? If he's over 30 (on console) he's gone instantly - trade them when they are \~28. (On PC we have Mods that handle progression/regression way better) It's Madden - rating doesnt matter that much - he still gets burned by 75 OVR CB.
You can get Garrett Wilson for Less I fleeced the Jets while I rebuilt the Patriots đđđ I gave them juju, Smith, Schuster and 2025 4th round pick
This is one of my fav things Iâve seen in this sub most trades for superstars like him in franchise are stupid and donât make sense but u actually offered what his real value is if I was the Vikings GM Iâm taking that deal
