ratio is 10:14 of QB to other Positions. 26 total players, hypothetical 13 weeks of releases but i’d expect at least 6 of them (3 weeks) to either not drop or not have rights

after week 1, the ratio is now 10:12, unless EA plans to release double QBs, we really should see a QB every drop lol

it is also 21:3 ratio of offence to defence, 20:2 after this weeks release. I really have no idea how they’re gonna do this program with the unevenness of O to D and the heavy imbalance of positions

100% why the Team Diamond master isn’t a QB. It would have blown a hole in the side of their shameless cash grab…

Appreciate seeing it broken down like this. 

Something to note Terrell Owens was on the cover of the Hall of Fame edition of madden 19. Not sure if EA has his rights or if that even counts for cover athletes just thought I'd mention it.
