All-pro? Or All-Madden?
I'll most likely do the same once the game drops and see if sliders change the results.

About 6'2 or 6'3 is as tall as you will get for a cb unless you move someone over from like safety

Browner measures in at 6'4 and Sherman at 6'3 ... Not sure if the game has them at those heights or not
That bothers me that you could go 30/30 with Calvin 
Even the sun shines on a dogs bum now and again. And that's practice mode AND All-Madden? Oof...
Spotlighting used to be back in the old PS2 days. It was effective for helping to shut guys down. Don't know how I went a full release without knowing they added it. Not sure if that was more my fault or their for not making it more apparent.
Expect me to spend a good deal of time practicing on how to shut that junk down and posting a vid. If we do encounter it in the leagues, everyone should know their options for countering it.

Ok, so pack1797 and I started up a practice CFM and tested Cowboys vs Giants to see what aggressive catch was like in CFM. I can say pretty confidently that what we have seen online in Draft Champions is NOT representative of how the game plays in CFM.
We played 6 min qtrs and mostly just threw bombs and post routes deep to Dez Bryant and OBJ. Both QBs were under 40% accuracy and we threw 15 INT between us. Both Dez and OBJ dropped balls that they got their hands on because the DB ripped it out. Both QBs also overthrew and under threw routes. Man coverage seemed MUCH better than what I had seen on Draft Champions too. The windows were much smaller and guys would reach in and break up passes on slants and crossing routes.
I'm not ready to claim the game is 100% perfect or that we won't uncover any issues down the line. But I do feel very confident that aggressive catch is NOT overpowered in Connected Franchise and feels pretty balanced. I wish Draft Champions was a little more balanced because I really like that mode. However, I can live with it because 95% of my games once the leagues start will be CFM so that's what is the most important to me at this point.

Rex tweeted that the regression and drive goal but for cfm will be fixed on first patch. He said it won't be day 1 but also won't be 6 weeks out.

Will it be worth it to wait for it?

I don't think it will be a issue on this leagues bc from what I gather the drive goals only happen in blowouts and don't carry over to the next game. The regression wasn't played by user games it was just off simmed games.

What about when CPU play each other, it would suck if the crop of free agents was degraded each year In CFM

It's only hurting LT I think so it's not everyone

That's a relief if it's just LT

Maybe someone can test it before we kick off the season?
What are we talking about? The issue with guys going over 100 confidence in a blowout? Those should be pretty rare in here if people are cheesin like crazy. There's going to be a learning curve. And the first season will take ~ 6 weeks so hopefully the patch will be out before the offseason.
