97 BND Set

It's Obtainable this week, what promo will have the most options in the pack?

won't be obtainable until Easter promo drops and i'm not even sure it'll be obtainable then... i'm maxed out and still about 3k XP shy of level 31. Think the 97 pack isn't available until level 36 or level 37. They've really slowed down how fast you can get through the pass. 

but i think it'll be Free agency with the most options

Do we know, or are these somehow confirmed (leaked) options -- or your current best guesses, based on available promos in that range?  I kind of assumed it'd be a random smattering of ten cards.  I saw a screenshot of the tier 3 (95 OVR?) S5 set rewards, which were liek Dre Greenlaw, Nick Bosa, etc.  I always hope for a decent card that we're not already using, but suspect the options will be fairly limited, as they were during S4.  Madabeast was the clear favorite from that (S4) option, IMO... not sure there's any truly elite 97s they'll bless us with, perhaps stuff liek Fred Warner and/or Sauce Gardner TOTY will be available, which seemed to be clear favorites, at least when directly compared with the mostly mid Free Agency promo.

i think it'll be a mix of FA/UL/AKA promo because 1) there's the chance we see an overall increase with Easter (though highly unlikely) and 2) they'll want people to spend money on Easter promo and not give out free content through this set.

I haven't really kept pace, but Ed Reed felt liek the only truly impactful UL offer thus far... not counting big Larry Allen LTD, as that won't be available -- Chris Collinsworth (at 6'5") made for a really nice big body to throw to, but barely any WR abilities do much of anything this year, complete and total reversal from `23 when SIE/SOE were basically requirements if you wanted to beat Man Press off the line.  Same with FA promo, some decent cards, but nothing that would dethrone my 99 SPD Superbowl 70/70 TT players... EA shot themselves in the foot releasing such premier content through SB, Combine and perhaps Genki, as well.  Nothing else really compares.

X-factors that essentially start ON and remain active the entire game are difficult to improve upon in a game mode where stats barely matter and abilities are everything.

This isn't solidified, and you're guessing.

Completing dailies up to the 20 and 25 day objectives (the 25th day would be Saturday), we are 84k Season XP short of level 36. EA would have to release at least 84k Season XP and it'd have to be available all this week. It's likely next week is when level 36 can be reached.

You get 60k per week, if EA gives 60k in easter field pass, you have enough

But yes, this is a guess

Ahh, I also forgot about the weekly objectives in my calculations. You're likely right. My apologies.
