 What's up YouTube today? I want to talk about salary cap a lot of people ask me about my team all the time Can I see your team? Why do you have levy on ballot full back? Why do you have this then third where do I start with a salary cap team? What's the best way to compete? I want to start competing, but I don't know how to run my team I need to get it better. I need to put everything together so this is just a little video to help you guys understand what I do and With my salary cap team and I said a lot of talk over the years about Madden's pay to play You know, but now I always felt like if you start right away Competing you won't be left behind when the good cards come out because right now There's no real crazy card with all the power-up programs You can get comparable cards that everybody in the game pretty much As long as you have a little bit of training and enough coin to buy the base card So I think now's the perfect time for anybody that wants to compete in club series Which is seven hundred thousand dollars worth of prize money You know, a whole pool is a million and seven hundred thousand 70% is going towards the club series You have an opportunity to represent your favorite team to really compete amongst the great man players in the world So if this is something you're interested in, I mean, I would never people ask me I don't know if my team is ready. I don't know if I'm ready If you sit there forever, you'll never be ready You know the time is now to get your team get your feet wet get out there on the leaderboards And you know see what you got, you know You're only going to get better playing the best people playing the leaderboards and moving up there That's that's pretty much what I recommend and I'll show you guys some things that I do to you know Make sure my team is as good as it can be And I'll show you mostly what I look for in a team and and what it's about and what I'll show you here now is just just my offense really You know, you got to figure out the main thing with savvy cap is you have to figure out what you want to run Because you only have a cap you can't have an obnoxious amount of person No, you know, you're gonna have to think about what positions are important to you on your offense Now i'm a passing type of person I like to be in three wire receiver sets with a tight end and a running back So to me, I want three wire receivers And I want a tight end and I want a running back and obviously I've I've always been Since salary cap came out I've always felt like I wanted to have the best quarterback possibly have Michael vick is the best quarterback in the game Don't think twice about it. If you have a problem using a left hand and quarterback stop thinking about that I would recommend Michael vick I feel like every quarterback throws the same messes up some throws But Michael vick is the fastest player on the field and he's your quarterback So, I mean, that's where I would go. I mean, that's just that's just personal preference But I think he's the best But anyway back to salary cap. So I have my three wire receivers. I have Tyree kill reigning moss and dj shark shark is a type of player where we can Save cap, you know, that's something that that you got to find what player is good But still low cap where you see reigning moss over here is 50 cap. You see the dj shark who's 6387 speed is 22 cap So these are the wire receivers that I put on my team So right there reigning moss is 50, but then you see shark obviously his ratings aren't great He's not good, but he's tall and he's got great speed for the mold right now And for 22 cap, you can do a lot worse than him out there And obviously to me Tyree kill is a must because he's the only 92 speed player you can have and To have that speed you'd be able to use it give him a ball make huge plays between moss Tyree kill Evan Ingram for me too because he's as fast as the tight end can be And girly, I like I mean running back is just that's pretty much what I had. You see it. It's a nat player That's what I put out there Now, so these are my five players that I want to use my three wire receivers My tight end and my running back. Boom. Those are my five skill position players Now you have to fill up your lineup, but the other players aren't going to play. I'm not going to run a two tight end set I'm not going to run, you know, two full back and you know, three tight ends or anything So every player other than that has to be the minimal cap because I need a backup tight end That's from my whole roster. So he's going to be 10 cap the power up Delaney Walker And he actually made it better this year because last year we would have 10 caps and they would have 42 speed And and they would just be terrible players But the Delaney Walker power up type player isn't a bad card 70 speed Obviously, you never really want him in the game But if he has to play in the game, he's not atrocious and he'll be able to even run a drag catch it and get a couple of yards for you Same thing with backup running back and full back. That's why I have levy on bell there. You need to fill out that position Anybody with 10 cap will work. I don't know if there's a new there's probably another full back That's cheaper or not cheaper. But you know also 10 cap you can put in there But like I said levy on bell still has a little bit of speed Same thing. I have alvin kamara. Now, obviously you can put a Oh, I receiver there. I believe the golden tape power up is 10 cap But anybody has 10 cap because these guys really don't see your field if you're using You know, if you're taking your time at the line of scrimmage, you're not going on 15 play drives These guys really won't see your field that much. So they don't need to be anybody good That way instead of putting 15 cap people there if I have 15 cap people there That's a whole 15 cap that I'm wasting because they don't see the field So that's pretty much the idea you have to identify Man, I'm running three wire receivers. I'm running a tight end and run it back everybody else in the backups have to be 10 cap my offensive line, I feel like I feel like the center has always been pretty important, especially when you're running the ball I have base elite Travis Frederick I haven't really had a problem with cap if I do this would probably be a spot where I would You know, kind of try to skip back. Maybe go with a power up center I have power up lane johnson was 28 cap. I feel like the tackles are really important Not necessarily when you're playing like you can watch and watch You know the elite of the elite man players blitz and do all these blitzes and stuff where your offensive line doesn't matter But what you have to realize is that when you're playing a leaderboard You're gonna have to beat more than just the elite man players You're gonna have to beat everybody and a lot of people will rely on block shed defense And just rush four and just rush three So you have to be able to beat those guys as well as the people that are going to blitz everybody Because people will say oh offensive line doesn't matter people are blitzing me and uh, my tackle is pointless Yeah, maybe against that particular guy, but the next game you might play, you know Somebody else that's running a little four three defense where they're just spying the detackle and rushing the three people And that's when you're running the lane johnson and Trent Williams to meet hold up And obviously they're still going to get shredded people say I doesn't matter offensive line I mean, obviously I would say it always matters because these guys might get shredded 174 plays as opposed to 173 plays Or 172 two plays, you know, it's just a big difference. I've been comfortable with this offensive line. I have So far And my guards are just power up like they're just they're not 10 cat 15 cat power ups I gave them a little bit of juice as I say, you know, I gave riding Hudson up to 16 cap I think norwood has actually up to 13 I lower these guys and raise them depending on where my cap is if I need to find three cap I'll go lower down angelo norwell a little bit and if I had some extra cap, you know, let me put up my guards a little bit So when I run base they block a little bit better So these guys to me really aren't that great And like I said, if I if I need say a new card comes out I want to add another db to my secondary or if I want to make shark better Maybe I'll drop down fredrick instead of 28 cap. I'll drop him the 20 This is very Versatile as far as your cap and your offensive line But for me and salary cap right now, you need some version of randy moss Anti-rekill, I think those two guys are automatic locks should be a lock for every team One because moss is tall and fast and can jump and just you know disrespect people Anti-rekill is the fastest offense player in the game. Those two people I feel they're a lot should be on every team Everybody else is you know, that's pretty much preference on where you go with your offense But I said it's good. You got to identify the personnel group you want to use everybody else has to be 10 caps in the backups Let's go to my defense Defense defense defense is even more important that you recognize what formation and what personnel group you're going to run If you want to run three four, obviously you want linebackers If you're going to run nickel, maybe you want some linebackers some defensive line Salary cap is a mode where It is best to have one defense that you run because that way you can you know Specify your entire team and personnel group to that that spot because obviously I want to run dollar I want to put as many dbs on the field as possible So if also now I got to run three four, I'm not going to have any linebackers because I use all my salary in my dbs So that's something you once again. You have to recognize Boom. Okay. So me personally, I have six dbs and three down alignment And my linebackers are actually dbs too. This is where you can really say if you decide to use Uh dollar like myself, you can use line safeties low cap safeties with good speed good height and good hip power As your linebackers rather than waste 35 cap on a talvin smith or find any linebacker That's over 80 speed is going to be fairly expensive cap wise where you can get a safety For you know 20 cap that's tall and 87 85 speed. So that's pretty much what I've been doing And we'll get to that in a little bit. But what I do is Pretty much the the biggest thing in madden In the history of madden that you can't really replace is size speed and hip power You know So what you have to do is find the cheap players the cheap cap golds and silvers That have that type of hip power and had that type of speed and the height helps too man because Like I said, you can swap different passes That maybe a shorter guy can't swap. And so like I said, my two safeties right here obi and josh jones Like I said, I want to run dollar. I want to run 60 bs two linebackers and three down alignment But my safeties are obi from the raiders 63 like 85 speed josh jones from the packers 62 86 speed both of them have 80 plus hip power 27 cap each which isn't like super saving But it's very good compared to you know, you will get a 35 cap decent Yeah, I like that people talk about andre hall who's short Decent speed and can't hit and he's an elite. So he's going to be a lot more cap So those are my two safeties. Obviously, they're not the best zone people They're not the best man people if if somebody's killing that particular spot That's why I have the corners. I can switch in and move them around But they're fast enough to catch people when you know, if they're running the ball To and they hit hard if you put your tackling on aggressive They're two people that one you could fit in your solid cap and two you can go buy the cards right now You can do a solo and have enough coin to buy both obi and josh jones and that's the biggest deal for me There's no 91 zone right now. These other super cards aren't jumping all over the field So I feel like you can survive right now with these a lot of gold players in the secondary Now for my corners this season. This is actually locked into a season. I have four corners I run into a couple people. I've been running just plain zone And that's fine for the gold people and and everything because they can play a hard flat and cloud flat But I wanted to be mixed up a little man a little bit more So obviously, you know, I love Patrick Peterson. I think he's the best corner in the game He's an absolute playmaker when he gets the ball. He goes for picks He doesn't swat anything and he makes plays after he catches it So so I've always been a fan of his he's got good height Good speed obviously great ball skills and and he can actually pop a little bit too So he's got like 60 hit power or something. So that's pretty good for a corner right now That's what I always liked him ramsey. Obviously, I can't there's nothing to say about ramsey But those two cards alone. I mean, you're probably looking at 600k right there between those two cards Well, you can get the power up versions get some training points get yourself You know at 87 overall pat peter 88 overall ramsey and they can hold you down just as well as these guys to in all honesty so That's where I think the power program is really You know good for salary cap because you can get players that are comparable to this and my slots I want to go with sleigh and roads this season. Once again, good size at this Obviously Xavier roads is six one sleigh is six foot tall both of them are physical they can tackle so I'm not losing much as far as the hitting and everything And uh, they're both complete man coverage We can we can go two man under right now and have pretty good defense Obviously all four of my corners are base elites And as I said, I'm running dollars on my down line and I want to go melvin ingram as a pass rusher Jadavion clowny who I think is a must all these cards are here I think clowny is a must on defense along with the old bees and josh jones the the golds that are fast and can hit And I'm gonna go with my man Vita Vi Vita that people been telling me he's a dog. I haven't even used him yet So that's what we're gonna do a two down line three down line in her clowny melvin ingram Vita Vi I got my four corners Got my two safeties and like I said with the two linebackers. I want two safeties I want to use Troy Apke from the Redskins. It was 19 cat. Look at take a look at this guy 19 cap he has 87 speed 62 67 hip power isn't the greatest obviously, but he can pop into b62 and 87 speed There's no linebacker even close to that fast and for 19 cap is ridiculous Putting safeties in linebacker is a huge way to cheat in salary cap It's a way to cheat in regs because you can get a 90 90 plus speed player a linebacker You can use her but the salary cap it's even more so valuable Because I can put 19 cap in the middle of my field and be able to run around man them up Whatever you do and a lot of times I put them in a spy and when the quarterback even vick rolls out He's not he's fast enough to contain Michael vick. The other guy. I use is devar is more These are two guys. I'm going to put all these names of people I think you should have on your team down in the description. So make sure you check that out There's also more videos on mad interf.com. You can click that link in my description too Give you more salary cap videos But these two safeties right here 19 cap and 20 cap both 62 both 87 speed and you look at devar is more has the 73 hip power Which is really high right now, especially for a 20 cap player I mean to have both these goons with this height and 87 speed at linebacker is pretty cool now obviously You got to take something you can't just get everything you're going to have guys that they're not going to get off blocks You're going to get pounded. So if you're going to run down, you have to be good at stopping a run Out of it with your user the way you shift your line the way you maybe use her another player Sometimes I'll use her safety just to bring another person down in a box and get more people Get some more beef in the box pretty much is what I'm saying But as far as defending the pass, I mean this is as good as it gets I go out here with eight dbs and three down line and pretty much there is no more linebacker position for me And it saves me so much cap because even telvin smith Powered up telvin smith is like 34 cap Why would I want an 82 speed telvin smith when I can have an 87 dude for half the cap? So to me, that's the easiest way to go ahead and save some cap right there And honestly, I've talked to them. I think linebacker or safety linebacker is bad. I really do I think I think it cheapens the motor. I think it cheapens the fact. I don't need a linebacker I don't need any linebackers. I mean it makes it easy on my cap and And you know, it's something that everybody's going to do You know, obviously people say oh, you're giving away secrets But I feel like all the smart man players that I would lose to anyway already know this I mean, they're not stupid. There's people that are way better than me It's how I kept getting a roster together and stuff like that. So I'm not too worried about that When I said, this is the way I go with eight dbs right now. I have four good corners Now there could be times where I have two good corners and two like average Slots and safeties are not that great depending on where I want my cap. Like I said, okay, so say I play a season And shark isn't doing the job for me like shark is dropping passes and I want to go make that O'Dell Beckham Like, you know, let me go put my diamond O'Dell Beckham there. So now so that's gonna cost me 15 cap more So now what I'll do I come down here and I'll take Xavier Rhodes I'll turn him into a tj green that'll save me nine cap and I might turn slay Into another safety doesn't, you know, not not that great or what not so forth and so forth Or I'll lower my running back out to make girly into, you know, ronald jones rookie news 10 cap there just depends And like I said, I also can go to my offensive line lower that a little bit But I really like the way my line is playing And I really like having the eight dbs and clowny ingram will fight for me on the ends Vita via here. He'll hold down the middle And that's pretty much the ideal thing I mean, you got to know the kind of these players that are cheap cap that can really be effective on your field And I'll list all those in the description. So make sure you check it out I'll also put the link in here So y'all can go ahead to the uh, the website and sign up for an mcs learn how to play And like I said, what you want to be playing to qualify for club series right now Is salary cap ranked?
