One player it feels like EA has never heard of

I’ll start with my guy Josh Jobe. He has consistently been a top CB for the Seahawks ever since he took the starting job.He put the straps on MHJ, Jordan Addison, Keenan Allen/rome odunze, and garrett Wilson And I don’t think he even had a core gold. Even if it’s a lower ovr i need an upgrade for my guy. hopefully he gets one with some upcoming promo.

Billy Sims. He was Barry Sanders in Detroit before Barry Sanders. And without Barry in the game, it would be nice to have another BS in the game!

Josh sobe made sense. Never heard of him til this thread. Billy sims is a legend with countless documentaries and books etc written about him. EA has definitely heard of him. Lol

Has he ever had a card? I thought the thread was like - hey EA - how about giving this dude a card. Wack ass Hillis gets a card - lol, but Billy Sims does not - it feels like EA has never heard of - Billy Sims

Hillis is a (somehwat) recent sensation. Sure his high flying status lasted about a season and a half, but it was within the last 15 years. Which also makes it easier to get his rights than an old school legend. Lol

But im with you, if i were gonna name a patriot just for laughs id probably say something like, larry whigham (still way more recent than old old school) but hes a special teamer ace (he was matthew slater before matthew slater) so... Maybe, andre tippett, superstar, legend, but played in the 80s (still more recent than sims i think) lol ea is cheap and lazy. So they recycle the same five or six "legends" per team. I hate it as much as you do.

Yeah him too but ive seen him in mut before. Feels like when be was though, all his cards suck though. They bring him out early or something. 

I was sitting here trying to think of an "obscure" or neglected Lion in that era, was cory schlessinger a lion? Hard nosed fullback? Or am I confusing him with someone else from another team?

whatever happen to bobby mccain bro just left and dipped so fast.

Hell yeah bro! Lions never get a good FB either - I am running 88 Michael Burton right now.

I hate the Pats and Jets but Curtis Martin should get more EA love as well.  Guy was a great RB and ran over my Dolphins far more than I would like to admit.

The guy had 10 consecutive seasons of 1000 yards or more.  That is pretty darn impressive.

In a recent Madden there was a pretty high OVR Lions FB Cory Schlesinger card IIRC.
