hey guys recently completed my first season of franchise mode with the Vikings. After trading my pick during the pre season i was able to snag the 15th pick in the draft in the first round and then the 29th pick in ever other round with the exeception of the 2nd where i had 2 picks . Vikes lost to the Cardinals in the NFC Championship

1st round pick Via lions : Jimmy Clausen 75 Ovr A potential
2nd round 3rd pick Via Browns : AJ Edds 73 Ovr B Potential
2nd 29th pick Lamarr Houston : 71 Ovr B potential
3rd round 29th pick : CJ Spiller 64 Ovr B Potential
4th Round Chris Gronkowski 72 Ovr B Potential
7th Round Mat Dodge 53 Ovr c potential

i think i did pretty good since mostly everyone i drafted came out with a B Potential or higher. Filled the holes after the first year since we lost Chester Taylor and brett favre plus Pat williams was getting up in years so i needed a replacement for him thanks!

It's an NCAA draft class...

Surprised CJ Spiller is rated so low.

I've never done the NCAA draft. Wish I had it.

I dont think its a bad draft at all. Good luck to you

Spiller always comes in below a 70 rating with 86 speed for me. The NCAA draft classes seem like they are predetermined how many good players they have at each position. I controlled every team with a top junior prospect and conviced them all to stay for their senior year (even Bradford and Clausen) when I uploaded that year into Madden 10 Bradford was the only one with a 1st round grade.

Even though I set it so that Mallet the QB from Arkansas had the highest THP in NCAA, he declared after the 2010 season at a 94 OVR, he entered Madden rated in the 60's with only a 89 THP and horrible ratings and a C potential.

Christian Ponder despite leaving as a top 5 QB in college had a 5th-6th grade and was 82 THP 60 THA.

It just doesn't make sense that the NCAA and Madden teams can't work together to make a cohesive duo of games.
