 What's up, what's up y'all it's dubby and I'm here with this video is really trying to explain salary cap and the mold that the competitive players are Playing and that if y'all want to compete in man 18 y'all need to get in the salary cap Because this is the essence of competitive Madden both the last two years and certainly this year And there's also little tricks tips and tricks that we have that if you're casual player You're not necessarily going to understand and it's things that when I went into the game I didn't understand right away And it's kind of what makes salary cap great for me and great for everybody else It's kind of the puzzle match that you get trying to put your team together and save as much cap possible You're only working with 700 this year. So you've got to really try to save it in certain spots And that's basically understanding what formations you want to run How many players you need on the field and how many players you need out of the 39 required players How many of them you don't need and essentially every player you don't need needs to be a 10 cap player They made it a lot easier this year There's less roster manipulation because every position has a 10 cat 10 cat bombs that essentially are going to be on your team You see here. So I primarily offensively I want to run a three-wire receiver one tight end one running back set So essentially I just I just need three wide receivers and I just need one tight end So behind my main tight end. I'm gonna have a 10 cap Jacob Tammy I try to find the best 10 cap which is kind of like the tallest midget in the circus They're really not gonna be good But you go ahead and try to find somebody Jacob camp Tammy at least got 67 speed which sounds terrible But for a 10 cap that's actually, you know, you can use it a little bit So that's he rarely ever gets on the field. So you want to save your cap You don't want to put a backup tight end Whereas in mutt regular mutt you'll have O.J. Howard. You'll have Jason Witt and you'll have five tight ends But in this your backup players that don't get on the field have to be a 10 cap for you to maximize your roster That's why a lot in the past you've seen a lot of us really tank in our offensive line Now I tried that earlier and this year it really makes you pay a little bit more So I went with a gold line and I had this Larry Larry Allen like base legend or something playing center. He's not that good So ideally we used to tank the old line But now I have gold if more cards come out in the future I might tank the old line the interior guys I really think tackles are important and I've also even kind of played to go in with elite tackles But that's the line I'm using right now all golds about 17 18 cap all of them But then we'll go back to offense the two full backs. They never get on the field I use one full back 10 cap The other one is one of my flex players your flex players should all be 10 cap players It's the way to maximize use the 10 caps properly So I had a full back and I'll use one of my flex players Which is you put any position to take up to your flex so you use a flex with a 10 cap Honestly, I should probably use this somewhere else because like I said, they do have 10 caps for every position So rather than have two full backs I might as well have another wide receiver or another tight end or another DB. That's terrible And here you see my fourth wide receiver never gets on the field. So he's the 10 cap tight end Now the fatigue is a little crazy this year what they might get on it on the field from time to time Well, ultimately is worth saving that roster spot and go ahead and just put in 10 cap as my backup wide receiver Now defense the same thing defense is a little trickier because some of y'all want to go ahead and use a 3-4 Use a dime use be able to use multiple defensive formations Whereas in salary cap in the past. We've always Dictated our roster primarily to one formation defensively whether you want to run nickel You want to run 3-4 have four linebackers you want to run dollar you have a hella DB's whatever you want, but Here you see I'm primarily going to run six DB's and most all my formations But then I also have another linebacker that's that's good But not that much cap You know most of the time I find Speed which are linebackers is what matters to me personally. I mean obviously we love them to hit We love them to catch and cover and block shit But those guys are looking at you know 30 cap Whereas I have these two guys Gruger Hill and doing McDonald who are both, you know 14 15 cap and 83 and 84 speed respectively So that those these two linebackers are like must-haves for me on defense You see all these other linebackers that have more cap than them So I'll go here and search my cap value And we'll go up the bottom side and that way you really find out who who can play and who's gonna save you money You don't want to spend your money on positions that you know really don't dictate that much to me personally I think linebacker is the best position to say save some cap Because like I said what I said here. Oh, here we go. We just want to compare these guys. I Can't find doing McDonald and you essentially just The cap value you can save in linebacker for me is personally is way more than any other position You know, whereas the pet if you try to save on D line you try to save on O line It's gonna affect your game a lot more, you know, so linebacker is definitely a spot where I look to okay Where can I find you know the best? You know the best way to save cap but not also hurt my team So if you have two linebackers here with 84 speed and 83 speed You know and they're both 14 and 15 cap. I mean, that's ridiculous You go ahead look at an Anthony bar or Shazir. You're talking about 25 30 cap So if I run both of these guys I'm saving myself easily, you know up to 20 30 cap for my team Where I could use elsewhere and honestly the main thing you want and for me and a linebacker speed Especially most of the time I'm a user in one so as long as they're fast enough I feel like I can get the job done now They're gonna miss tackles and when you let them the computer control them They're gonna be stupid but you have to live with that because they had the speed and They go ahead and you know save you tons of caps on linebacker's a spot where I look to save the most cap personally And right now even on D line. I'm saving a lot of cap with cash is Marsh Cash is Marsh is another player I use because the 85 block said only 25 cat where like you said You know these other guys tend to be a lot more cap and 85 block said for gold is really high I had Bolsa. I had you know, Von Miller all those guys, but I didn't pop off the screen to me I'm cool with these guys Dante Fowler and in cash is Marsh because they're decent And I like to honestly put a lot of my cap in two of my corners And that's Jalen Ramsey Patrick Patrick Peterson because they can do a bunch of different stuff They can man up. They can play zone. They're physical. They can hit and if you don't know by now Need to learn about these two guys who are absolute savages last year and honestly TJ Green himself plays way better than you last year for me. That's TJ Green and Lonnie Valentine men to be that tall Still be able to hit and have 86 speed at the time mud is dropped right now There's still great cards and if you compare them the other safeties. I think I have a Rodney Harrison here Right, right. What's and I have Deon and you compare it just TJ Green just his speed alone Obviously, he gets blown out on all these other categories So you look at the hip power is 20 more points that tackles 20 more points all this stuff is way much But at the end of the day, he's six three. He's 86 speed You know, you look at the cap difference 33 11 cap in a player You get this a taller player with the same exact speed And the one thing to me that's always separated TJ Green is just his catch He catches everything if the ball goes up in the air TJ Green is going to grab it So that's a player if you want to say he I think he's a must-have on salary cap this year even more so than last year One of my biggest flaws. I felt going in a man championship last year as I spent a lot of money a lot of my cap on Sean Taylor and Harrison Smith Until my players that were 60 cap Whereas TJ Green was balling for people and he was 22 cap So this year, I mean until the safety really stands out. I'm gonna continue to rock Alani Ballantyne and TJ Green and down here. I even have OB we all know OB from the end of last year with the draft card 64 fast and physical so these guys are a way to save cap and not have you know, 50 cap tied into your safety Which like I said last year. I thought was a detriment to the team I built So these are just different ways. We like to save and here we go again. These two backup safeties are both 10 caps Sean witherspoon probably the best 10 cat linebacker has 79 speed Which is not fast, but it's not slow for a linebacker now And he's 10 cap and you're back up D linemen that never get in the game 10 caps to this guy I don't even legger. I don't know him, but he's 10 cat. So you put him in there. They don't get in too much So that's different ways we go ahead and utilize now This a lot in the past we've been able to tank kicker But I actually have a kicker now because you know if you have a 70 kick power kicker You can't do anything for you. So he did a good job of making it you had to have a kicker My punter is the base when they gave me he's terrible if I have to punt it really goes like 15 yards But if I have to punt that's my fault. So I'm really not gonna put any money into my punter. So That's pretty much how it works. You know, you have to utilize you have to get good utilizing the players that That are cheap, you know, obviously you look at this And if you look at these players on a mutt team, you throw up you'd like this is terrible I would have had that bone salary cap they performed just just as well as some of the high High cap cards, you know, like I said speed height and hit power man That's really no matter what mode they change it in game. No matter what, you know Features they put in patches all that nothing will ever replace Speed height and hit power All these guys had a big hitter trait so people are really caught up on a big hitter trait You need safe people a big hitter let the computer hit for you. Sometimes, you know, even pro player You you'd like the computer to help you from time to time. I'm not good enough to do everything myself So like I said speed height hit power. Those are the three things You look for in DB's for me personally I mean, obviously you'd like to have your two guys that can actually run and cover and I have Patrick Peterson in jail And Ramsey for that because both of them are physical. They can both hit and I like them there March on ladder more is another gold low cap 88 speed That's the car y'all should look into and I'm gonna do some more of these videos every once in a while when I find new gold cars that I really like But for March on ladder more to be 24 cap with 88 speed Obviously his zone and his man is not good, but the one thing we also like about March on ladder more You go down here 62 tackles not bad at all for a corner and The he's physical man. You like somebody anything over 60 hip power for a corner is good for me 61 hip power 88 speed. He can play for me. You know, that's that's that's big time So like I said, you got to utilize the players that you have to first you have to realize, okay This is the set I want to run Okay, so what players don't I need if I want to run two tight ends then I don't I only need two Y receivers So the other two Y receivers need to be 10 caps if I want to run three four I only need four DB's so all the other DB's need to be 10 caps So and that's the way we use side cap to our benefit, you know Like I said as the year goes on I'm gonna go ahead and put out more videos about more players that I find out that are really cheap and really effective It could help you once once again utilize the cap to your best advantage and also make plays on the field So stay tuned the morning videos hit the like button if this helped y'all Please subscribe and go ahead and please hit that like button.
