Madden NFL 16 Guide › Draft Champions Mode

Buffalo Bills

Offense

The Bills’ offense is perfect for players who like to mix two HBs into their game plan. If you can commit to running the ball and keeping your backs fresh, you will have great success.

Key Formation

Buffalo has an excellent formation with the Dbls Wing Offset Wk. This allows you to run inside or outside to set up quick throws to the edge. Use this formation to get your fastest playmakers a mismatch on the outside.

Key Player

HB with 90+ Speed

Formations

  • Singleback: Jumbo Pair, Ace, Ace Close, Ace Pair, Ace Pair Flex, Bunch Ace, Bills Doubles
  • I-Form: Pro, Pro Twins, Tight, Tight Pair
  • Strong: Pro, Tight Pair
  • Weak: Pro
  • Pistol: Full House TE, Full House Base, Strong Twins, Weak Twins, Ace Twins
  • Gun: Doubles, Dbls Wing Offset Wk, Y-Trips Wk, Trio Offset Wk, Bunch HB Str, Spread Flex Wk, Trey Open, Empty Trey Flex

OFFENSIVE Draft Targets

  • HB (SPD, ACC, ELU)
  • WR (SPD, ACC, RLS)
  • QB (ACC, PAC, MAC)

Pro Tip

Look for a mobile QB rather than a pocket passer, especially if the difference in Overall rating is within a few points.

DEFENSIVE Draft Targets

  • OLB (ZCV, PRC, PUR)
  • SS (PRC, SPD, ACC)
  • DT (STR, BSH, PMV)

Defense

The Bills’ playbook has always been built around solid defensive linemen and fast edge rushers. However, add more blitzes to your game plan with a new coach in town.

Key Formation

Look to the Nickel 2-4-5 Even as a formation where you will be able to get the most out of your lineup. The 3-3-5 Wide is also an option if you are more comfortable and want to shut down the edge runs.

Key Player

OLB with 90+ FMV/PMV

Formations

  • 3-4: Odd, Predator, Over, Over Ed, Bear
  • Nickel: 2-4-5 Even, 2-4-5 Dbl A Gap, 3-3-5 Wide
  • Big Dime: 2-3-6, 1-4-6
  • Dollar: 3-2-6
  • Quarter: 1-3-7, 3 Deep

Pro Tip

Getting one elite player in your secondary will make you feel that much more comfortable when sending heavy pressure.
