I understand that Reggie fits your TT but why not take a better card that can help out somewhere else on your team instead of selling Reggie for maybe 60k? Also I would think Reggie gets an upgrade at some point sooner than later.

I'm not going to do that. It was just a suggestion. Probably a better suggestion for if you have a player with a higher OVR and you don't have any other players you want to get. I'm probably going to take Mean Joe Green  and use him. It depends on who is revealed tonight.

None of this matters if it is a choose 1 of 3 situation.

Yeah I could see that with a high OVR card, but even MJG you will probably be able to get for like 75k-85k tomorrow I bet.

In the very first write-up for the AKA program it was written that this token set would be a “choose 1 of 3” full AKA player.

Hopefully we get a fantasy pack with all of them since the wording on the actual set says choose ”ANY” AKA player but it’s EA.

Either way here’s my take on how to handle this set if we get to pick “ANY” AKA player:

-Don’t rush to pick your player tomorrow. We are getting All Madden 3 on Thursday and who knows what players they will drop (maybe Sean Taylor as some have mentioned). You may be thinking “I won’t be able to afford the All Madden 3 players”, while this may be true it will likely make some other great cards drop in price that you can afford.

-Choose the card that you think will be useable the longest. These are going to be BND so you’re either stuck with them or you can quicksell them for next to nothing. Sometimes the card that  looks the best right now can be outdated fairly quick (WR’s, HB’s, etc.).

-Keep in mind the discounted abilities that fit with your scheme/lineup.

-I imagine a lot of these guys get newer cards at some point making their lower cards super cheap.

I’m kinda bummed the AKA program is ending. I loved the idea and really enjoyed the program (mostly the card art and nicknames on the jerseys).

Cheers to a free player!

For some clarity, the set description has always said "choose any" but it was stated on GMM that it would be your choice of 1 of 3 when they revealed the program. At the time, I was told by EA that it was indeed 1 of 3. However, the fact the text was never changed and has said "choose any" this whole time may mean they have changed it since the program reveal.

We won't know for sure until people earn the pack tomorrow. Let's hope it's choose any.

I mean they just did like 3 different make goods for Blitz packs being labeled wrong. That being said if these aren't pick from all AKAs EA will have a shitstorm on their hands tomorrow, 1 million times worse then they did with those Blitz packs!
