 The first ever draft champions, I listen, yes. I'm running out of fucking ideas. I get it! Madden 20 has been out for 11 and a half months. I was a Minecraft YouTuber that's the equivalent of like seven years. So if I wanna post a throwback Madden 16 draft champions video on August 20th, then I just might do it. Okay? Yeah, by the way, I think this is dropping August 20th. August 21st, EA access comes out, which is when you can play Madden 21 early. So I'm definitely gonna be live streaming that. It's gonna be fire. I might actually live stream on YouTube instead of Twitch. Either way, just be ready for me to go live on something and be there, just give me a hug. This is such an exciting game on when it came out, but it had so many flaws. Number one, you can only reset your draft once every 24 hours. Like if I did a head to head draft and I wanted to reset it, I can only do that once every 24 hours. Which is so dumb, because half the time all people wanna do is a draft. Now I can't really do ranked or head to head draft because nobody plays this game. I'm gonna run a draft, maybe a couple and then do a player friend. Oh, we got Redskins grudin'. Oh, this is such a throwback. This is so sick. Keep in mind, this is back when draft champions was very difficult. Draft champions now is this fucking baby walkthrough stepping stone virgin, Matt Ryan. Boston College, I'll take it. Dude, draft champions now holds your hand and gives you every single player for every single position. This draft champions is ruthless. You're not guaranteed shit. You're not guaranteed QB. You're not guaranteed a halfback. Your team will end up being like probably an 83 overall and the new ones, it's like a 93. I actually like this better. It makes your drafts so much more important. Julius Pepper's left side. That might not even be that good of a pick. This is also the time period where 80 to 84s were gold players and on top of that, the gold players had insane stats. Like, look at this dude. This is 84 overall with Sean McCoy with 99 agility, 98 ball carry vision at the start of the game. That came out day one. I don't do that shit anymore and I have to take them right now because I'm not guaranteed a halfback. David Johnson, see the starter, David Johnson had 93 speed as a 78 overall gold. This was so fun. Oh, 87 Km back on the Raiders. Yo, that's hot. Jordy Nelson. Oh wow, dude. There's some serious OGs on this team. This is the best round, dude. Getting this round is so sick. I got Drew Brees, Atwater, Ray Lewis. I'ma go Ray Lewis. Jason Taylor, Ultimate Legend. Yo, I forgot about these. These Ultimate Legends are so far. I really did. 85 draft on my first run through is actually fired. I'm not gonna use this team anyway. I know I'm gonna read draft and it's just really fun to look at this stuff. It's weird. I keep getting these invites and accepting them, but nothing happens. I've been here for literally 15 minutes trying to get this game to work. Like this, bro, I accept the invite and I just sit here. Am I actually not able to play? Also a huge thank you to Roman for sponsoring today's video. If you've followed my channel since my high school days, you'll know I had really bad acting.

Enjoy the rest of the video. All right, we cracked the code. I just have to queue up head to head draft with someone else at the same time. So this guy named V3Cakes just messaged me. He's going to queue up at the same time as me. So we're going to play. We're going to make this work. I'm going Ken, why is it hunt? Tennessee Titans, sadly, this Tennessee Titans playbook does not have RPL peaks on bottom. Basically what I'm saying is I'm going to be horrible at this game. But this draft, no matter what I get in this draft, this has to be the draft I roll with because I can't restart this head to head draft. Yes. Yes, it's Russell Wilson. That's so big. Now all I need is a half pack and we're good. Fletcher Cox. I love Cox, dude. Love Cox. I'll go Zach Martin at right guard. Uh, Carlo Stansby, Steve Smith. Dude, it'd be kind of cool that, you know, I gotta go Steve Smith. 96 CJ, mostly campus hero. Uh, Giovanni Bernard or D-Hawk. Let's go Giovanni Bernard in case I don't get another half back. I'm going to go Patrick Chung. Dude, I'm getting caught a good round. None of these are insane, but they're all good. Jamie Collins. Yeah, let's do it. I kind of need an elite cornerback. Here we go. Yo, Gatorade Peyton Manning. Eric Wood, no, I got Jamal Charles. Jamal Charles is so sick in this game. I'm going to go Jamal Charles. Damn, Giovanni Bernard was a bad pick now. Malcolm Jenkins, free safety. I only got two rounds left though. I need a corner. Ahead of O, up Shaw. I'm going to get James Ahead of O and he's going to have to go at corner hopefully. Come on, bro. Shit, this is not that good. Finneron is really good because of aggressive catching because he's six foot five. Rod Woodson at free safety would be so sick though. I got to go Finneron, dude. Ag catch Finneron is going to be crazy. All right, I'm ready to play. Let's do it. I have V3 cakes, whoever you are. Thank you for clutching up playing with me. This game looks like shit. Yo, did I almost just return a kick? Yo, I took that at a 35. Let's go. It's so weird how it works. Every single year for Madden, we look at it and we're like, oh, it looks the same. It's the same game. This is stupid. But the difference between this and Madden 20 is insane. This looks like shit. This looks like I'm playing a game from it 20 years ago. All right, half bag stretch. Most overpower play of Madden 21. We're going to, sorry, Madden 20. We're going to try it out here. Dude, the run game? The run game is nothing at all like what it is in Madden 20. I do remember that you could run like base half bag dive and you could like cut it to the edge. It was something like that. I don't exactly remember, but I'm going to try and figure it out here. Okay, you know what? I'm about to lob it. I'm just going to lob this to Brian Finnerin. That is honestly my best shot. Finnerin should be open. Go, go, go. This game is so dumb. You know why I remember this? This was the Madden where I started to transition away from Madden mobile and into Madden console. For those of you who haven't been a fan of my channel for like five years, which I don't expect you to be. I used to make Madden mobile videos and that was it. And I was really scared when I was making the transition because number one, I thought no one would like my bad console videos because I was sucked at the game. And two, I was so used to posting mobile. It was just weird for me. Well, this game made aggressive catch so overpowered that I had really never played the game before. But all I had to do was pass it to a wide receiver and hold Y and there was like a really good chance I was going to catch it. And I think he might have ultimate legend Gronk, which is a very, very scary wide receiver in this. I'm going to cover Bruce with Jenkins. I'm going to blitz everyone else. Oh, go get it. Now here's the thing. If aggressive catch works for me, that means it also works for him. It's so funny dude. All right, I am blitzing just about everyone here. Oh shit, bad time. Damn. All right, let's see if he runs this ball again. We are in a man coverage here. I think he might want to throw to Gronk. So I got to be ready for it. Oh, he throws a wheel around the middle of the field. He dropped it. Honestly, all he has to do is throw it to Gronk and hold Y. Down on the three, but that was perfect. What's funny is in this game, like juke moves, spin moves, they just don't work. They're horrible. I'm going to try a stretch to the left, but you can't break tackles in this game. That's the thing. Without X-Factors, it's like pointless to try. The only thing I can really do is throw the ball to Brian Finneran or maybe Steve Smith. Let's see who's open. Stepping up in the pocket, we're rolling. Oh my God, I barely got down with Wilson there. All right, so I'm going to send everybody up the field. I'm sending everybody up, Brian Finneran on the slant. I'm just going to feed it to him. Got him. Let's go. All right, deep lobbed to Brian Finneran inbound. Let's see if he can do it again. Let's see if Finneran, let's go. Oh, he's got a pocket there. No, no, no, he doesn't. Touch him. Geez. Hi, Rod Taylor, shook one, but we still got him. Filled. Fourth and 27, he's going to punt. This, this half back slip screen still works. I don't remember which Madden they nerfed the shit out of it, but it might still work. Let's see it, Jamal Charles. It's kind of there. Oh my God, I just swerved it. I actually just swerved it. I am blitzing everyone on the right side of the field right now. Let's go. I think he's going to throw to Gronkh. No, it's not there. No, I can't get to that. Holy shit. Dude, I'm so slow. I knew what rowdy was running. I couldn't get to it. Yo, it's actually a game now. Hey, I hit him. I hit him with slip screen once. I guarantee I could do it again. Let's see if he's ready for it. No, he's not, because he's not a safety. There's no way he's ready for it. Give me a block. Good block. Jamal Charles tripped. Uh, third and one. Inside zone is an awesome play in the new men's. I have no idea if it's good here. Oh, he was so ready for it. Dude, he literally was standing in the running lane. I'm going to do it again. He won't think I'd do it twice, would he? Here, I'm going to call a bunch of fake audibles and then run inside zone for a yard. Is it there, Jamal Charles sidesteps? Dude, that was so dog shit, but it worked. Second and nine, I'm going to go Brian Finneren underneath for this pass right here. Let's see if it's there. Is he there? Dude, he just delivered the best pass of the game, for sure. And that takes us into the fourth quarter. Really good clock management right now. I think I'm going to come away with a win here as long as they don't have some massive choke. You think Brian Finneren can go up and do it? He does best. Single coverage. Oh shit, it's too deep. He caught that too. If that was in bounds, that's a touchdown. Oh, he sent in some blitzes. Maybe I got to scramble. Maybe I got to do it. Don't fumble. Didn't fumble. Okay, I'm going to go for this. Fourth and three, I'm getting this. In fact, I'm not just getting this. I'm getting a touchdown. He's there. We got him. No touchdown, but I'll take that. We're just going to see what opens up here. There's a delayed safety blitz. Russell Wilson breaks free, takes a hit. Dude, he just ate that shit on the one. All right, third and goal. I do not have a touchdown yet. He's going to stay in goal line. I'm going to pitch it to the left side this time. Wish me luck. It's there. Jamal Charles is too fast. Let's go. Oh my God. Dude, if he gets an onside kick, oh wait, shit, I need to be an onside. I'm not an onside recover. Holy shit. I'm not going to call a timeout. Let's let it go. Let's see what happens. Go get it, boys. Let's go. James ahead of ball. Around the edge. Around the edge. Oh my God. That would have been so sick if I had returned that. Just going to go base four verts. Most fun thing to throw on this. Y'all peace open. He's open. He's got the wheels too fast. Oh, this is big. I should punt, but obviously I'm not going to. Fake field goal run. Is this my holder who runs the ball? Who runs this ball? Is it my backup quarterback? Go, go, go. So there is a fake. There's a fake option. It's kind of dog shit, but we tried it. All right. Well now we have to actually clamp for a minute three. Otherwise I will lose this game. Oh, he's going to throw deep. Oh my God. I have to score. I have to go score now. Steve Smith. Oh my God. He's getting man cover clamped. Ryan Finneron might be faster than his man too. Look at Brian Finneron. Wide open. I think he's out of bounds. I think that's top of the clock. We're almost in field goal range already. So that's really good. All right. I'm going to give Finneron a slant again because I feel like that's going to just continue to be open. Ooh, Russell Wilson take off. No, no. I tried to throw that to Y and he just pump faked it. I don't know what I clicked. And the Detroit Lions go down to the New England Patriots. All right. Well, I hope you've enjoyed this episode of throwback Madden 16 draft champions. Thanks for watching guys. I'll see you tomorrow for Madden 21, not Madden 16. Peace out.
