Thats what I think I'm gonna do
The only card I will get from Combine is the LG Quintin Nelson, as Superbowl has no LG and 0AP post up is great
I think a Beast Mode/Emmitt Smith combo is better than Combine Bo
Maybe I might also pick up the new DT Harrison Phillips, but hes so expensive now - and we are likely getting 2 better DTs soon - TOTY, then a Mean Joe or REfrigeratory Perry AKA LTD
i thought the same as you...
and then I went and grabbed some of the combine cards and holy smokes. Got to a 70 SB, 30 Combine team and using Bo at RB, TE, ROLB and CB... dude is a monster. Especially at TE with Yac Em Up... flat and drag routes for a first down almost guaranteed every time.
Only combine card I really wanted to add was Willis - but couldn't find a spot for him on the squad. Simmons and Bo Jackson seem to be better users.
I was thinking about skipping the Combine but the motivator chems changed my mind. Easy boosts for the upcoming endgame TOTY team.
70 SB + 35 combine is wildly overpowered.
The reality is if you line them up you will only be starting a handful of Super Bowl players. The combine players at overlapping positions are mostly better.
I’m still starting Whitworth, Plaxico, Casper, Sapp, Karlaftis, Young, J Brown and Ward. Everyone else is combine or a ringer.
Yeah some super bowl cards still win out because of the light it up xfactors. But I do like how a lot of the combine cards are physical freaks so you don't really need a TT to get the most out of them
I hadn’t planned on getting any Combine cards, but the motivators changed everything. I moved to a 50 Combine/45 Super Bowl team and have 99s and 98s everywhere with 99 SPD.
Maybe just from boredom eventually
Got every SB LTD other than Blount, but don't really want him tbh
Trying to save up for the 99 mahomes to replace Doug. just wish i had the extra tokens from the bundles lol

99 Mahomes is not great TBH. I would go with Aikman if you want someone with Super Bowl chems, but Bo QB is better than all of them.

I struggled with whether Whitworth was better than Bolles based on stats alone but Bolles is so much faster with the combine upgrades he gets out of peoples way better than big whit so I got him starting and whit as backup for chemistry I am not using ward either I got Julio Jones, Irvin and Plaxico with Irvin at slot everyone else that you mentioned is still who I am starting Tariq Woolen, Patrick Willis, Julio Jones, and Reshad Jones are my have to start combine difference makers. I am at 70/32 right now im saving the rest of my coins on TOTY but might pick up a few more combine later on.

I like Richardson better than Bo for the PLE he’s Aikman that can run. I like it but don’t want to put too much ap in my qb all of my line have some abilities as well as running back and mossed on Julio Jones so I don’t have the ap to put too much on my qb.

I only have Karlaftis, Casper, Sapp, Whitworth now going for me. Combine players are too good especially with the need for secure tackler.
I do not even know how to use the other cards that some of the players came with.
Will they be inserted and provide a boost if they performed well in a drill?
When will this happen? I did not see a way to boost any of the guys I have yet.
If some of them get boosted enough, they may be worth a line-up spot.
Bo Jackson, Bo Jackson, Bo Jackson, Bo Jackson, Bo Jackson, Bo Jackson, Anthony Richardson, McFadden, Darrius Heyward-Bey, Quenton Nelson, Isaiah Simmons & Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie look like starters to me if they have the same team chemistry as your other players.
I will keep a 70 SB...but...will work to getting a 25 Combine to go with it. The 70 SB team has almost all my skilled players with 99s at most of the key areas, so suspect...they hold until near end game.
Gonna be replaced by toty anyways
