I wouldn't mind drafting a computer generated Peyton Manning once in a while.

Like how one year the highest drafted dude was 97 and another 86. The variation in draft class strengths is really impressive.

Wouldn't mind seeing more simulations!

The 97 OVR QB was a free agent, so he presumably got drafted with an OVR in the early-mid 80's and developed/progressed to 97 in game.

From the looks of those three players they all progressed pretty good. Hopefully all players progress realistically.

I like what I saw. I like how rookies increase in ratings, hit a plateau, and then decline in ratings.

If I had to nit pick, I would say a QB who throws 16 TD's and say 13 INT's doesn't deserve to increase in rating from 88 to 90. He should probably stay put, ratings-wise if anything.
