Every offseason I face the same dilemma — do I spend cap on a proven vet or trust the draft and develop? The problem is Madden gives you almost no tools to make that call properly. You're basically deciding based on OVR and vibes. What's your process? Do you have a system or do you just go with your gut every time?

I've been playing franchise mode for years and I still can't understand why EA never built proper tools for it.
Want to check your cap situation? Navigate through 4 menus.
Want to compare two players before a trade? Open each profile separately and try to remember the numbers.
Want to know if you can afford an extension in 3 years? Good luck.
The gameplay is great. The franchise management side feels like it was designed in 2005 and never touched since.
How do you guys deal with it? Spreadsheets? Just wing it? I'm curious what systems people have built around this.
