Season 4
Season four of Madden Ultimate Team dropped yesterday and the theme for this season is “Football is Family”. There is a premium pass for $15 that gives you many rewards but as no money spent players, we are interested in what we can get for free. This season, the cards obtained through the field pass can be upgraded to 94 overall but currently you can only get these cards to 93 overall. Below are the players that we can upgrade through the pass.
- 94 Christian McCaffrey | HB | 49ers, Panthers
- 94 Luke McCaffrey | WR | Commanders
- 94 Ed McCaffrey | WR | Broncos, Giants, 49ers
- 94 Joey Bosa | LOLB | Chargers
- 94 Nick Bosa | LE | 49ers
- 94 Quinnen Williams | DT | Jets
- 94 Quincy Williams | ROLB | Jaguars, Jets
Later in the program, you can achieve 87 Stefon and Trevon Diggs which can be upgraded to 94 overall as well. Out of the cards released in this field pass, I am looking at the Trevon Diggs card with 93 speed at corner, Nick Bosa to address my needs at LE, and Christian McCaffrey in the backfield. Once again you can earn coins, strategy items, player packs, and tickets throughout the field pass like past seasons.
My Current No Money Spent Squad
I finally made the necessary upgrades at RB and QB. We added 92 Christian McCaffrey to the squad and picked up 91 Johnny Football from the auction house to hold it down at QB for the time being. We also fully upgraded 91 Martellus Bennett at tight end while adding 90 Xavier Worthy to the wide receiver room. Defensively the only change I made was upgrading LE to 92 Nick Bosa. This All-Madden Promo should help boost my offensive line while giving me an option at LOLB or SS.
Offense
Strongest Position: LT and RG
Weakest Positions: QB, WR, C
Defense
Strongest Positions: FS and DL
Weakest Positions: OLB and CB3
Let me know what you guys are doing to help build your NMS squad this season in Madden 25.
