Your Madden 12 Raven Roster

[BmoreLuv]

I thought it would be cool to see what other ravens fans are doing with their Madden rosters. Here's some of my changes. I know some players may be rated higher than my choices, but I still DGAF.

[u]PS3 [/u] (Which console do u play on??)

1. Barnard Pollard is starting next to Ed
2. Tandon Doss Is my number 3 WR
3. Sergio Kindle gets in the game as well.
4. Smith is my Nickel
5. Webb and Reed are my PR and KR

If I was to make a trade it would be for a Corner like Asante. (franchise mode)


(You can also post your EA screen name to swap some virtual paint....)

My Ravens VS UR Ravens..........Lets Go.......

[indianstick]

haha I put jimmy smith at number 1 cause his man and zone coverage, and tackling and power is the best outta any of the corners. And then i put foxworth at number 2 and webb at nickle.

I keep torrey at slot because hes actually not bad in the game

I would start pollard if his speed wasn't a 79. haha thats slower than our lbs minus JJ. I don't think hes really taht slow and i wish they would bump his speed up to 85, that would be amazing.

i play on ps3 too..pillpusha1227 hit me up

[bauer77]

Should've put this in the Video Game section of the forum

[Guest ArmyRaven52]

this will get moved by the mods,
but wiskydrunkdude is the tag.
hit me up

[dscola1974]

Smith at slot, Zibs starting next to Ed, Kindle starting over JJ. In Madden it's all about speed and versatility. Psn: dscola

I switch to a 4-3


Suggs at RE
Ngata and cody at DT
JJ at LE
Mcclain at LOLB
Lewis at MLB
Kindle at ROLB

but i generally always trade ray lewis away so I can get some value before he retires.

Its only a game :-), I try to build for the future in the game. Usually trade him and another player or combo of picks for willis or another top MLB

Real life, I wouldn't want to be the GM that does that but in a game, no harm no foul :-)

He retires after the first season... and since EA got rid of the add ons you could buy to keep a player out of retirement you would only have to have Ray for only the first season. If there is someone on the roster you could get value for I would say Jarrett Johnson would be good trade bait. I always trade him to get some picks for him.

Me neither, usually if I just draft a fantasy team (and I'm the Ravens) I will always try and get Ray somehow. It's just not the Ravens D without him...

haha I used to always trade JJ immediatly in Madden 11

[Dfence4champs2052]

Nice topic.

I was using Jimmy Smith as my number two behind Webb but he started getting beat.

My adjustments are:

1. Bernard starts as SS
2. I swap Anquan and Lee for #1 receiver (for formation purposes)
3. I leave the CBs as is now with Cary as #2 behind Webb. But I put Foxworth in for #3 CB since his speed is still useful (only in Madden lol)
4. I put Torrey as my Kick Returner and Reed as my #2 I had McCann for a while of course he's cut now.
5. My LE is Sergio Kindle (been using him there since last year!) and it always pays dividends though he gets hurt sometimes for the game. I put Redding as Haloti's back up since Haloti gets hurt every now and then. Paul Kruger is Kindle's backup which works for much for me.
6. Backup FB I use Kris Wilson since he can catch and when you swap from the formation screen its a nice little tool.

That's my line up and I've won over 130 plus games on PSN. I only played 8 on Xbox.

LOL in previous Madden years I'd get tired of going 19-0 with the Ravens so I'd use like the Jets and trade all the players I wanted to them or whatever user controlled team lol. Then I'd undo the user for the Ravens and watch them lol. Fun stuff.
