I have created atleast 10 NFL teams so far, old school team's, current teams, all of that but this has to be the creation I am most proud of. If anybody saw my Brian Urlacher pics then you know my work is good when it comes to uniforms and players. I am away from the game so pics will come tomorrow but here is my roster and a break down of how they are represented in the game.

Gold
LT-HB
Branching Tackles, Finesse and Power, Break Away Speed
-This is truly a masterpiece, if only the game had arm bands he would be perfect. He runs like LT, his visor makes him look like LT, I would rather play with this LT than Maddens "Real" LT anyday and thats honestly, not fanboy bias.

Shawne Merriman-OLB/DE
Speed Burner, Big Hit, Rip
-No need to waste an ability on Pass Rush Bonus or Sack Master when you can simply give him his most unstoppable move in real life. The rip.............He hits hard, he looks ripped, he's huge, he plays nasty. Love him to death. I get atleas t1 sack a game manuelly with him.

Silver
Philip Rivers-QB
Laser Arm, Play Action
-Being 6'4 makes him incredible in the game. He stands tall in the pocket and he has great accuracy. A little weak on the deep ball but we dont throw alot of them. His other ability comes directly from LT's abilites.

Jamal Williams-NT
Strength Bonus, Run Coverage
-What can I say, He keeps my LB's clean. Nothing else needed but that from him. BTW- he's huge.

Antonio Gates-TE
Speed Burner, Soft Hands
-I couldve went with other abilities but this is the core of his game. He's my only receiver, and he's very dependable.

Bronze
Quentin Jammer-CB
Bump Master
-Physical corner. He chews up WR's with his bump 'n run which gives my D more time to knock out the QB.

Luis Castillio-DE
Run Coverage
-Jamal Williams at DE.............................

Marcus McNeil-T
Bulldozer
-Dominant 2nd year player already a great run blocker in real life.

Lorenzo Neal-FB
Bulldozer
-I didnt feel right leaving him out since LT's success comes from his dirty work. He kills LB's. So dont tell me there is no point to getting a legend OL.

Marlon McCree-FS
Big Hit
-Nice suprise, he has exceded my expectations. He hits hard as all get out.

Shawn Philips-OLB/DE
Pass Rush Bonus
-A smaller less explosive version of Merriman.

Pics coming soon..............................

What do you all think?

being a chargers fan i love it, only changes i woulda made personally(i use the TE more) i would have switched gates and merriman, gave mccree leadership instead, and maybe quick release to rivers, but i love seeing a chargers team GJ

This is nice....San Diego native talking....I've thought about how I'd make the current team, think I'd have to get the five gold achievement.....
If there ever was a gold fullback, Lorenzo is it, though I understand that position is different now than it was 20 years ago....
Merriman and Phillips both silver, Williams gold, LT and Gates gold, Rivers bronze, Godfrey bronze.......
Anyway good job...can't wait to see the jerseys...you better post a code.

Good line up. I made the Niners myself Gold-Gore & Clements. silver-Allen, Young, Jackson. Bronze-Battle, Davis, A. Smith, Lawson, Willis, M. Lewis.

I really need to unlock 5 abilities though. Does anyone know if you can unlock more for silver and bronze? i think it should be 5 gold, 4 for silver and 3 for bronze.

I have to disagree with some of your created characters. Please go look at my created 49ers team somewhere in this forum.

Alex Smith has both abilities: scrambler and quick pass, so he should be silver (according to the draft scout + he showed that a lot in regular season)

Patrick Willis is so unique for his speed and big hit, I'm suprised you've bronzed him. Larry Allen is getting old, the only left over his is strength.

Bryant Young and Jackson, they're getting aged...so they should be bronzed.

Fire up APF and tell that to Montana, Rice, Marino, Elway, etc...

We are talking about create a CURRENT NFL ROSTER standard, like what they are right now. (Alex Smith has improved, Allen gets aged, etc). I'm not going back to madden, sorry.
