Cool idea!

Everything perfectly explained Nelson! Nice job!

Updated with the ULs today (5/28)

When Tyreek was going for 260K, I got him for 180K

Powering up gives a +1 to every attribute of the player's top card (up to a maximum of 99). So, Jefferson's power up can get to a 97 overall when his 96 TOTY or a 96 power-up pass is used.

Unless you don't have anywhere else you'd like to spend the training, it probably isn't worth powering him up. Generally the reasons to power a card up are:

1) to select a different theme team (ie selecting the Seahawks for Jerry Rice since neither his 96 nor 99 are equipped with Seahawks chem); 

2) to get theme team credit at a player's secondary position. Not all players even secondary positions (and I doubt Jefferson does), but some do, such as a LOLB also getting chem at ROLB, or a SS getting team chem at FS. Bruce Matthews can play any position on the O-line for my Titans theme team.

3) unlocking a specific ability/ getting an attribute above a threshold. Not super common, but before his 98 OVR came out I used powered up Randall Cunningham because his Bo Knows card couldn't get Gunslinger, but he could if powered up.

4) Sometimes it can be cheaper to power up a card and use a power up pass, or upgrade a player to just below their top card, rather than spending a ton of coins on the top card. The attributes won't be as good as the top card, but in some cases you may not even notice a difference in play.

5) changing card art

6) because you want to

All of this

I skipped out on Madden 21 last year, but I was really hoping they'd put a player from there back in: Jim Thorpe. He looked amazing, and as a football historian, I just love that kind of stuff. No real stats were tracked on him, just legend's and stories of his insane ability. Oh and I'd like to see as well:

-Lee Roy Selmon

-LTD: Merlin Olsen/Deacon Jones, either would be nice.

You got one of ‘em

You must live under a rock 🙃, cause now we have a problem too ;)

Times up for the GTP#6! I was busy so it got delayed for a bit. This one was a little bit of a challenge as well. Let's see our winners!

Correct Answer: 80 Overall Ugly Sweater Devonta Smith

Points:

1st: Sochi (+11)

2nd: beastlyxtiger (+10)

3rd…

Results coming soon - sorry for the delays

Thanks for the advice, based on your responses, and the fact that it cost 50K training to PuP Billy, I’m gonna stay with Tyreek

I already looked at height, their both 5’9

I’ve had Tyreek PuPed for a bit, and today I pulled Billy out of TVP, and I’m wondering if I should power down Tyreek and PuP Billy for use as my WR3/Slot. Any opinions/suggestions?

Let’s go!! I absolutely love Tedy!

You get a choice between a WC pack and a 98 UL pack.  I chose UL Moss because that way i could replace mine and sell it on the AH and keep the NCAT.   I detested having to win 25 times.  they don't pay well on XP and i probably cold have made 3 levels worth of XP if I had been playing h2h seasons.

I 100% agree on the XP thing. I‘ve barely gotten any, and I’ve gotten 1 1/2 levels the past 2 days just doing HR, and that’s plus dailies. I’ve got 18 wins probably played 30-35 games. Same with coins, I’ve gotten like nothing from playing the games…
