I am using him at LE and he just runs over people on the edge.  Between him and Allen, they are feasting on QB's.

<p>Definitely going to give a try now, thank you!</p>

I did and haven’t looked back, Twin. I keep Hunter as backup for the boosts but Ed has balled out. Hunter was my most productive sack artist too.

<p>Sounds like it‘s time to make that move! Thank you</p>

I feel like FS Graham has been making plays in the secondary. Not a ton of takeaways, but a lot of breakups. [checks] Got it backwards: 1 deflection, 7 interceptions, a fumble recovery (not running Avalanche, so they're hard to come by). Out of 413 H2H downs played.

<p>Sounds like he’s working better for you!</p>

<p>I agree, i’m enjoying Megatron and Tony G for sure. I tried Jimmy Graham and Stork but I just couldn’t get them to play well no matter where I put him.</p>

Larry Allen DT with colossus is crazy good AND being a gold 99 LT/RT is a bonus.
Too Tall Jones LE with colossus just runs down everyone 
Calvin Johnson WR
Too Tall Jones WR.
Calvin Johnson SS

<p>Are you using Ed at LE? I’m thinking about replacing Hunter with him but have been hesitant as pass rushers have been so hit or miss.</p>

I totally agree and have used all the others mentioned as well. And George was still better than all them. Then comes Allen and he is a sack machine  my stack on Allen is

ST

Reach Elite 

Tip drill

Lurker (he gets a few pics too)

Def Ral

Inside stuff 

Colossus 

2ap total

<p>I’m running the exact same stack and he’s been the only pass rusher better than George.</p>

I hadn't previously noticed this, but since you mention it, I'm getting very different results with Ed Too Tall Jones than I've had with other receivers like Deion Sanders or Devin Hester.

<p>I have been trying to decide if I should keep Ed or not. His cuts are really slow and late compared to my bnd AJ Brown who was always running crisp/quick routes. On the other hand I can hit Ed on a drag and then proceed to break tackles with his Yac…</p>

I've definitely had this happen as well, and like you said, it seems every reciever will "breaks/cuts" differently as well. I run into I've thrown to reciver X a dozen times and "know" his break, then try the same thing/timing with a different receiver and get very different and inconsistent results.

<p>Yep, you explained what I was trying say better than me. That is exactly what happens when I try a new receiver.</p>

<p>Happens to me WAY more than I would like. I could be crazy but I feel like different receivers make their cuts at different times. Idk if it’s determined by height/weight, agility/cod, route running, or even the type of ”stride” they have. Either wa…</p>

Could also just be he plays better like some other cards like Sapp and Moss.

<p>Seems to be the case, dude plays different for sure.</p>

agreed. i played a game last night were on the first play i threw a pick 6 bc my QB didnt want to get the ball out. i forced a fumble and of course they pick it up but my players just stood still, he got up and ran another 40 yards before he was tackled after being out the ground with the fumble. luckly he was so ass i was able to win 21-7, his only points being that fluke pick 6.

<p>It‘s actually pretty funny how different each game can feel. Most of the opponents try to run the same plays/schemes but EA’s sliders in the background can make the games play completely different.</p> <p>Anyways, glad you got the W!</p>

Problem is they're even more rare than their Originals with basically no packs to pulled them from while still being the same price.

But out of curiosity, which combines do you still consider worth packing up for 1m+?

<p>Yes, it usually takes a couple weeks to see more volume of them in the AH. It’s just nice for anyone that didn’t get enough tokens.</p> <p>I think a case could be made for Micah and Quenton being worth a mil depending on scheme. Both WR’s are really good,…</p>

<p>This time of MUT season I’m just having fun.</p> <p>I don’t play this game expecting a sim and over the years I’ve embraced the abilities and crazy OOP players.</p>

Noticed this with roster rev reduxs as well, although it's a 100k training

<p>Nice! I haven’t used any RR cards so I wouldn’t have known this.</p>
