 You too. What's up, man? It's draft champions season the opportunity to learn a new game mode get comfortable with it I'm learning how to play and learn how to qualify for the next EA major Which is the Madden challenge great time of year man. You have everybody playing the leaderboards everybody trying to compete It should be easy for you guys to make it in the top 100 I think you need to be a top 128 So if you want to compete in the challenges you want to get to the live That's you want to play on the stage with the best players in the world man Make sure you're playing draft champions and obviously some mode. Maybe you guys are all the way comfortable with you Not all the way, you know locked in on and you haven't played it that much And I'm gonna go through a couple drafts let you guys know about what I think when I draft and how I make sure I get the best Team I possibly can and how I like to you know Key in order positions that are gonna make my team as best as possible You know there's something that that I think you guys should have a better hang hang of when you're drafting Because I see a lot of people drafting the teams are just making bad decisions For my personal preference and kind of how I think when the game, you know How to play the game and so on and so forth now as draft champions So, you know, I think the run has always been more prominent in draft champions because the offensive line is a little bit better Like the gold backup sort of gold base players You're gonna have an offensive liner better than the 10 caps you'll have in salary caps So people gonna be able to run the ball a lot better, especially if they wind up with one of the goon running backs The goon running backs have always dominated draft champions whether it be a member. What's his name? Eric Dickerson back when Moe won his belt with the double juke Great pride the best running back at a time at the time in the game He was huge in the game Walter Payton's always been a great draft champions Barry Sanders this year Somebody that can really carry you in draft champions So for me personally, I want to make sure I stockpile my D line with fat guys And I also want to make sure I get as many DB's as possible Even more so this year with the bees being able to play the linebacker position in certain formations linebacker might be overlooked man I might try to throw a couple on there if they're there for a draft So I can put them in my 3-4 my 4-3 to stop the run inside the 10-yard line But most I'm gonna be looking at the line and people stop the run get after the pass and DB's DB's DB's DB's DB's DB's DB's I'm in our last year. I always wanted six this year with being able to put them in linebacker I might want eight DB's the stats will that's gonna be that crazy for DB's I'm really not sure the glitchy base players that they give you that's something where I'm gonna update these videos for draft champions as they go But sometimes the base players you have can really help you man If you have a base player that they already give you that you can use in the game is definitely gonna give you a leg up on your opponent I'm gonna get more comfortable with knowing who those players are Right now. I'm just gonna show you guys what I do when I go through a draft man Obviously, I want to pass the bar 1-3 while receivers a tight end can be huge in this game But if you can get an evan ingram or Vernon Davis somebody that's fast at tight end could dominate because like I said I mean Some people be stuck with a 78 speed tighten or something like that So be having a good tight end can really tilt the scale in your favor as far as teams concerned So that's definitely something I want to get mad three good wire receivers a tight end and right now I see the quarterback sometimes they give you bad quarterback rounds So if they give you bad quarterback rounds, I would definitely pick a great quarterback in the legend rounds So let's check out Run through a couple drafts and give you guys what I think and why I pick what I do when I'm drafting As you see here, this is a player friend I mean, I remember all the live events I qualified for a draft chambers I would sit here and draft on play a friend over and over and over knowing like what to expect What comes up the most what you know, what areas I really need to make sure I secure quickly and That's pretty much what I do I mean, I know I'm gonna have a running run back around while receiving round things like that and This is just all preference man Then right now this this playbook setting I probably pick green Bay personally. I'm good with that playbook But that's all up to you man I'm not gonna tell you guys how to play and I will play with the pick and right off the bat I mean, it's why receive around so I got get a wide receiver Obviously Stefan days is good. He's slow Taking is the fastest and I know this card can spin I'm maybe Stefan days can spin that it's gonna have to have 82 spin move in salary cap Or in all man on all man to play and the crazy thing about it is you can't really check the spin move Which is kind of crazy that I can't look at all their stats or all their attributes But I know Ted getting can spend so I want to pick Ted getting right off the bat And that gives me one pretty fast water see where I can spend that's a weapon But here we go with the with the quarterbacks just looking brutal man When you see the passing ratings all in the oranges and the shit green That's just these these guys are dreadful and I'm honestly sick that these guys are still the quarterback around is like this I feel like a quarterback around should be like, you know only the top 10 quarterbacks not 85s and stuff like But I want to pick Baker probably the most mobile he has the best throwing stats Not by much, but he definitely does Here we go with a tight end 82 speed. That's not bad. That's not a bad tight end Doug Baldwin doesn't jump off the page I told you about guys about DB's on one as many as possible now Rashad Jones is not the fastest But to secure, you know a guy that can hit like that right away Can certainly probably play linebacker for me if you really think about it He's probably going to be the a linebacker really with 82 speed He's not super fast, but he definitely can hit and definitely has great zone Doug Baldwin, I think a 84 speed wide receiver. I'll come across one of those in the future in the draft I already got one wide receiver. I said one 8 DB's. I got to pick one in that situation Add Rashad Jones to the team all corners did this round for me personally the way I'm looking at it I want to pick the tall as fast as definitely price Stefan Gilmore here Because he's tall. He's 6'1 and 86 speed Jenkins really not optional. His ratings are really good. I mean all these cards have pretty good ratings I'm not really the biggest threshold ice. It was like 91 zone. Obviously you want them But for me, I don't notice the biggest difference The biggest difference I notice is the height of the player and the speed I mean to leave is great, but it's definitely more a little bit fast I'm going to pick to leave or pick a Stefan Gilmore right there. Just because he's faster Can't be mad at anybody you pick right there. They're all pretty even Here we got a D lineman. We got two linebackers I said I really want to run a nickel normal or dollar or something where DB's are my linebacker So they're really not the biggest option for me. We got a team diamond player here Jubal shared one of best block shutters and D lineman in the game He's really overlooked because he's not super fast But 76 speed is pretty fast for D lineman with that 91 block said 91 finesse. You gotta go Jubal shared That gives me one stud up front. I love four studs up front Here we go with a tackles and a center. This is really a bad round right now But obviously in this mode in this mode for draft champions for my life I've always wanted two tackles to my book in tackles and a center if I could I'm not going to pick this center I'm going to pick a left tackle and make sure my tackles are good if anybody wants to block shed defense has some decent tackles out there Here we go with um Just a left-hand Jordan Hicks linebacker. That's not that good looking to me 81 speed Michael Brockers is fat and slow got good block shed man. Good strength and I also got a Kevin Zeitler Now I'm not in love with a guard, but the one thing about a guard as you always put in center I think the center position is way more important Especially through 35 odd might still be in the game after the patch people might be running three man rush I always like to have a good center especially against the run So I'm going to pick the guard but essentially move in the center if I want three line But I want a center and two tackles. This is almost a snap pick for me right here with Cromarty I mean DC has someone 91 speed. You definitely got to pick him Cromarty and Gilmore so far on outside Rashad Jones to that's decent little setup for my for my defense And here we see um the Sean Jackson Brandon cooks Hunter Henry a good tight end really Between Brandon cooks the Sean Jackson 91 speed 92 speed I mean the naked eye would pick Brandon cooks, but I know the Sean Jackson can spin He has over 82 spin he can do the super spin so that's he's gonna be a better card than Brandon cooks I'm gonna pick the Sean Jackson. So I have getting Jackson both of them to spend That's very good receivers to have those two guys there Here we go another snap pick for me William Jackson 89 speed. That's a great another great DB man That's I have four DB so far halfway through the draft halfway to my goal of eight DB's Now this is tricky for me Because you see this card right here Levy on bell diamond That's a that's a goon card to having to move around Jordy Nelson is probably not an option for me I already he's not that much but OJ Howard 87 speed tight end That's a dog tight end and draft champions to be 87 speed I mean personally some of you guys might go levy on bell because I mean he's a good He's the best card on board right now. He can pretty much do it all But I'm I think I'm gonna pick OJ Howard because I might not find another 87 speed tight end I'm definitely gonna never running back because they're gonna give me a running back round where it's all running backs Now I might get a worse Obviously, I'm probably gonna way worse running back in this levy on bell But for me personally, I don't run the ball that much and being able to pick up a fast tight end is something that That's really really tough and draft champions So for me, I'm gonna pick OJ Howard comment below if you would have did differently, but we'll see how it works out for me right now Bang, so I got a fast tight end got to do our receivers. I'm gonna pick Bradley Chubb here He's got the speed. He's got the strength. He's really a good card. Honestly, 84 blocks at 90 strength 80 speed Boom. So now I got two decent players in the front. So I could use a couple more front seven guys And here we go with guards tackles. I think I'm just gonna pick MacLendon This is tough for me right now I would like that other tackle, you know, I really would but I don't think Larry utensils that good But at the same time, I don't think this MacLendon guy is that good But I'm gonna pick MacLendon I'd rather have trouble have trouble with pass protection than have trouble stopping a run now Here's my running back around I talked about I could have had levy on bell But honestly, I think I'm going hot. This is tough I see this is where I wish I knew if Joe mixing could spend I probably would definitely pick him with 88 speed 90 acceleration That's fast a gy is too slow. I know for I know Freeman can spin So I'm gonna pick Freeman just cuz honestly the spin is more important than three points of speed So loving on belt Devante Freeman definitely a drop-off, but I'm cool with Freeman for the way I play if you want to pound a ball more Definitely pick that levy on bill I'm here to give me a Robert Quinn. I'm not happy with Thomas Davis. I'll never pick Mark Barrett anyone speed Let's pick one linebacker. So that linebacker takes away. Oh, man This is a snap pick clowny for me Finish up. I mean, it's tough to pass cam chancellor. It really is but you got a snap pick clowny in my opinion That's for the linemen no more the linemen for me. You know, they give me this class cam I almost want to pick him Instead of another D. Oh linemen. Yeah, I want to do that. I want to pick another D linemen I'm gonna have five D linemen only two offensive linemen. I And that way I can bench that MacLendon guy. He wasn't that good anyway Now we're getting a little rough here. We're losing our Not that many DB's left. I'm gonna pick a middle linebacker. So I have two linebackers Want to grab another DB if I can bang, let's grab this a left tack Let's grab Tyler Smith to be my other tackle So I have my three linemen Right here is tough. She's all running backs or we're just all running backs Definitely got to pick Eddie George. I feel like he's the only option. Oh, I think Franco Harris can spin But they wouldn't even tell me I can't even see his truck. This is pretty wild You should be able to see all the stats of the players. I want to pick Eddie George Now the thing that's kind of killing me. I think I only have two wire receivers You know, we two hours is I have Bryce Butler not terrible Freeman they put him automatically wire see where that's not a bad move. Oh, Jay Howard can play Tight wire savers 87 speed. I'm gonna have armstead entire and Smith. I'm put Zeitler as center That's a Baker Mayfield offense isn't that great looking. I mean DJ. I can take in OJ Howard. That's good Eddie George Obviously as a dog Devante Freeman Baker Mayfield Offenses makeshift two spinners two good running backs fast tight end. I'm not mad at it for draft teams I should be able to get things done Defense I have to a 280 speed linebackers Great D line. I mean Jubal Shears, Davion Clowney Clays Campbell Bradley Chubb McClendon 5 I wish I didn't have five even three could be better But then I have a decent secondary. I wish I had more like I talked about one eight DB's So I'm gonna count my two linebackers because I'm essentially there's just the people I want behind my D line But essentially I'm only one of these seven if I'm running for down line So Baron 8 which I'm called Avery Williamson 1 2 3 fuck up for DB's so I had to run somebody else Maurice Alexander doesn't like a bad card 85 hip power 83 speed All right. Yeah, that's a very good base card. Looks like it could really play on my team But I like the defense. I really do. I mean I'm not disappointed really in anything Wish I would have one more DB would have really you got to check these guys to man One people don't do this You know check the base cards because they'll have some of your better players really on the bench Like Chris Conti has 79 speed I rather put in one of these bench guys 83 speed or Marcus Cooper 82 speed 6 to them put him in So I wish I would have had some more DB's on this this team right here But I definitely have a great D line to be able to stop the run sheared Campbell Clowney Definitely got Rashad Jones Gilmore commodity William Jackson Boom, I like that team. It's makeshift. Nothing pops out, but nothing's nothing's bad I can really fight with let's try another one to give you guys a feel of what I'm thinking We'll go here. I don't really care about the playbook. Sometimes you'll pick a playbook with two tight ends You want to use two tight ends a little more? Obviously, this is pick New England every time but You know, don't want to don't want to get used to picking New England because it's not likely you're going to get that First round we're gonna go ahead. I mean, this is just a track around right now. I Don't pick D4 look a little bit speed decent 85 finesse. You can rush the passer a little bit He if I'm you might be a user somebody in the middle to play linebacker love my man AJ Boy a but 82 speed ain't it one pick this Marcus ladder March on ladder more here Cuz he has a little bit better ratings than a Muka more pick a March on ladder more Always say Marcus ladder more from that Maryland running better from years ago But and here all we got if you can have a 85 speed linebacker I think that's like an automatic pick at 85 speed linebacker in this mode So I got two linebackers in the middle. There's Zitler again. There's D tackle at 9 Terry Poe Pick a D tackle a lot of rounds went by this five rounds or give me one lineman Here we go again. I'm gonna pick Bolsa build that front line build that front seven man I remember J. Mills said it in the first stretch and build your line That's what I like to do when I get here right here. Like I said, I like to I like to book in tackles I'll picture in Williams. That's a dog left tackle This round Eric greed 86 speed, I think I'm going to pick him 90 hip power That's a good DB. Let's get these DB's and get these line get this line Ted again once again a snap pick any wire see where that could spin any running bad expense should be on your team This round, oh, this is tough the markets Lawrence that he's better than that cart in real life The net card is this is a tough round because Shaq Thompson and how Clinton Dick's pretty much are the same person I'm gonna pick because they can kind of play interchangeable positions I'm gonna pick a Shaq Thompson. So I have three linebackers now. That's a lot And then I'm gonna pick another one because I'm gonna pick tell them Smith is a guy that I pretty much pick every time So now D4 is gonna play on the line Got why receive around I think a manual Sanders can spin I'm not sure but I think I'm picking many way because the 89 speed AJ Green gives me a hope. I might pick AJ Green. That's that's our option But I any one of these guys other than Kelvin. I'm not picking Kelvin. Just too slow and I know he can't spin But I'm gonna pick a e-man Sanders Here we go, let's pick my right tackle. I'm gonna I want to have to move Bolsa inside auto-shelter rankings It's just he looks like a dog 72 speed Let me pick let me pick my right time get my tackles secured two heavyweights a tackle. That's good Bang and I'm gonna pick a O'Dell here get my three wire. See that's three fast short wire. See was I can spin love it I Passed up on a fat guy got a picker or got down to your poor already. I feel like I have to pick I have both said I have D4 to end I'm gonna pick Vita veil play the middle two two fat guys in the middle that are strong Let's swing in these DB's man. I need these DB's Gilmore. I got Gilmore and ladder more now I need DB's that's the number one thing I need Let me pick a erie Brown. I'm not as Paul's decent hide can spin I know that but I'm gonna have a running back around them I don't really need more than one running back and here's my warning background This is a bad Kamara. She's what Tavia's Murray got to be to pick right? 89 speed six three Got to pick Murray there teams looking good right now I like this team a lot better than the last one look at now I can get your ball sheared to he's a ends we can play inside the tackle I really need some DB's popping right now These quarterback suck too. I'm gonna pick Carson Wentz cuz he's Carson Wentz really need a DB in this round and I don't get one Shit, I think what I have to do here is I have to go ahead and pick Steve Smith I think it sucks because I have enough linebackers have enough linebackers have a tight end I'm gonna pick Steve Smith and bench somebody but This team defensively didn't come together like I wanted it to What do I want to what let's see Great offense, I think really good two tackles good running back great wide receivers great wide receivers Carson wants a quarterback e-bron. That's a decent tight end Eric Reed like I said only got the two corners all these other guys are I mean this guy's pretty good They were I was 85 speed. That's pretty good He's gonna have to play safety or something because I need some speed I heard d-line and linebackers are just on the juice Darius Leonard with the 85 speed Talvin Smith Shaq Thompson d-ford D-line is stupid good. My secondary is definitely lacking on this team as you can see by how many linebackers I have Probably had to stay in some type of 4-3 or something like that to put all these d-line and linebackers on the field But the offense is good. I probably like this team more than the first team man But let me know let me know what you guys think What picks you think I did wrong what picks you would have did differently and what do you value most on your team And do you like to make sure you get a couple running backs? Maybe you like to run it backs mix out the rotation Things like that, but let me know what you guys think Well, and I'm gonna learn more about draft champions and continue to post about you know Drafting a good team because I want all you guys competing I want you guys developing your your games to compete at the highest level man
