It’s just the second day of free agency and joining all the signings comes a huge trade as Matt Cassel (along with Mike Vrabel) is sent to the Chiefs with the Patriots receiving their 2nd round pick in return. In the most prominent case of a player identified with a particular team moving on we have Brian Dawkins who joins the Broncos and leaves behind the Eagles who he very much helped to define over the years.

If you missed the first set of screenshots you can check them out here. Continue on to view the latest.

OMG B-dawk pads are gigantic...i hope they fix this in madden10

dallasalltheway

don't have to be a douche bag

raidernation11

d.hall is garbage..raiders will be better next season just by not adding anyone...higgins and schilens all day and night with jamarcus maturing into a solid qb

Gabe G.

AMEN

G-I-A-N-T-S- GIANTS!

Need canty in a giants uniform

Quan

I'm late. I didn't know Matt Cassel was traded.

CaptDraino

I traded in my Madden for NHL09 and I don't recall.... Does Madden 09 have an EA locker like NCAA had? I would like to play with my new Jets D! It would be pretty cool I could play against some other new lineups. In the past I prob would've made the key changes myself, but I loved be able to grab the rosters from pasta in this year's NCAA, it realy made my EA 09 Football season!! And I am sure there is someone out there that has made the roster moves already...

That Dawkins pic shows just how bad the Madden 09 models really are/were. Why is a safety wearing the shoulder pads of a 400 LB lineman??

Mr. Professional

Hope the Pack gets Chris Canty, we need a big DE for the 3-4

Hawks9700

I would've tried to get KC's first rounder if I was NE. Wouldn't you want something a little more in return for a future star?

Kyle

Boley lookin fresh in the BIG BLUE, don't bother with rocky bernards uni, hes just gunna be a rotation player, not a starter on the giants

Big D

Pasta,

I know it's irrelevant, but Cassel won't be sporting #16 since that jersey has been retired under HOFamer, Len Dawson.

GT=kc10785

I wish that rule work for everybody cuz im a die hard dallas fan but i got to hear f*cking cry babies when i pick them

Skihawks

I was schocked as well as Thigpen played last year for KC...Still, a solid pickup for the Cheifs

sam

good stuff. i like this feature but the very first thing i noticed was the massive shoulder pads as a result of the player editing glitch lol. they better fix this in madden 10!!

Erop

None of the players shoulder pad sizr are massive in the screenshots, Dawkins are big, and just right. The others are small, and just right.

Sam

actually, they are huge. just look at the very first picture...especially in comparison with the rest.

Mr_EA_Sports

The reason B-Dawk isn't with the eagles is not because the eagles didn't want him back it was because B-Dawk wanted to break the bank at the football elderly age of 35. He was good at getting to the QB and run support last year but his coverage skills took a nose dive along with his ability to make tackles in the open field. Do not be surprised to see him switch sides in that Denver defensive backfield as he has lost about 3 full steps.

ken

dawkins has not lost a step much less 3, if you dont believe me look at the 2nd dallas (massacre) game from last year, he was all over the place, brian dawkins is not john lynch and still has at least another year maybe 2 before speed becomes an issue

Gabe G.

i would try dawkins at 3-4 outside linebacker
it will never happen because of his size
but the way he plays the game i think he could pull it off

ken

i am truely shocked this came from you, bein a raiders fan and all, it sounds like a great idea in principal, unfortunately in reality it doesnt work so well, 2 words, adam archuleta the beauty of being a skins fan is i get to watch our busts fail on other teams or start for the vikings which ever comes first

Gabe G.

adam actually rolled through the raiders training camp last year. he tried to play some outside linebacker but it didnt work out so well. during the last preseason game he got swallowed up by the lineman

ken

yea thats what i was talking about glad you got the reference :)

Gabe G.

i dont think that the ancient one will take jerry back
he let him walk so easily last season that it doesnt look like it will happen
but al does have loyalty to his former draft picks so we'll just have to see

ken

way to do your homework, al has a bob dole worthy hardon for his draft picks, but without curry you guys are gonna be pretty thin @ wr, if they were smart they should make a run at marvin harrison...of course until you get a real nfl caliber qb your screwed anyway so its kind of a moot point, but keep the faith bro itll turn around or al davis will kick the bucket either way it will be more entertaining than watching the field goal fest that has become modern raiders games

Gabe G.

im actually looking forward to this year.
during the beginning of the season i was going to burn the jamarcus jersey i bought but the last two games of the season, which we beat some pretty decent teams, he actually looked like he was starting to figure it out. his progress depends on the offensive line more than anything.

ken

i think hes made progress but he still has a while, those last two games were an improvement from god awful, not good but better, with the raiders (special teams also higgy is about to blow up) d and johnsons progression into an elite corner the offense wont even need to be average to pull out a few wins, unfortunately i see both denver and san diego sweeping the series so thats gonna make it alot harder...

ken

rex ryan going to the jets is gonna be huge, instant credibility (not even including the massive free agents they got) as a top ten defense, unfortunately you have to play against tom brady so first wont happen as long as hes playing but im goin 1pats 2jets 3fins 4bills...now you just have to hope for a quarterback and cross your fingers they dont go with lossman or grossman and youll have a shot at the wild card spot...

phins fan

omg what a suprise everyyone is still doubting the dolphins

ken

its not doubt its common sense, pats automatically get first because they have the best quarterback to ever play the game, jets are a close 2nd because they have rex ryan, and probably a top 5 defense, at least with those two teams its a question of whos better, with the fins and bills its a question of whos worse, and with marshawns impending jail time and trent edwards being a bum they are slightly worse than miami so the division is pretty much sealed as long as brady is healthy... like i said 1pats 2 jets 3fins 4bills

ken

great pics pasta, but do you know if EA is gonna crap all over haynesworths ratings now that hes in a skins jersey like they did with hall? also dockery is back in DC, you can skip his picture though we remember it :)

Gabe G.

deangelo hall is a real piece of work
ive never felt so let down in my life
playing next to nnamdi really exposed him

ken

its all the scheme, the skins play a scheme similar to atl, so hes great here but if you leave him on an island like the raiders 98% man to man scheme hes gonna get ripped. When you give a qb a choice to throw to either asomugha & huffs side or hall and bum ass gibril wilsons side id take that in a heartbeat, when royal torched him i saw wilson out of possition at least half the time but no one ripped him cus he had a ring its a team game and he got all the credit for the secondarys screw ups...

Dallasalltheway

are these gonna be on an update of madden 09?

ken

your a dallas fan so im going to say this r~e~a~l~l~y r~e~a~l~l~y s~l~o~w~l~y, NO! if they updated the rosters with free agency and draft picks there would be zero reason to buy next years game...i mean unless they fixed the collision detection, merged with 2k sports, or add "new" features that were in earlier versions of madden

Eric D

the pads look much more realistic this year, glad they finally fixed that

Bagel

I don't know what you're talking about. Those are Madden 09 pics.

Gabe G.

agreed

Kenny

#16 is retired! Cassel's gonna need a new number

Mr_EA_Sports

17 million with 7 million guaranteed says it's so
