may need a draft guide sooner

[heime2003]

every year i get frustrated by lack of clue how to draft well and build franchise team
this year i think its not exception so i have to rely on someone's experience and his guide not to go trial-and-error process to build my team
hope someone write a draft guide faster this year than previous years

I think draft guides will be a thing of the past. At least I hope they are. I think one of the devs mentioned they are gone

Just use your scouting points on the draftees, normally you can cheat by only unlocking awareness, but you can normally scout certain positions ratings to get a general outlook. These are the minimum requirements for my draftees. Some of these you will find guys in round 4-6.

QB: (A) THP, (B) on all Accuracy
HB: (B) on Carry, Trk or Elu, (A) Speed
WR: (A) at Speed, (B) CTH, CIT, RTE
OL: (B) IMP, RBK, PBK
DL: (B) on PMV, FMV, BSH
LB: (B) at Tackle, HPW, and Speed.
DB: (B) Press, MCV, ZCV and A Speed. (Check HPW/Tackle for Safeties)
K/P: (A) KPW

Thats my guide at least.

I do well on my drafts by using that as my basis for all those positions. Then extra points goes towards other stats and info such as scheme and play style

developers are idiots
they think players can draft well by logic and strategic scouting but even all my effort and careful thinkings, many of my draftees( who i thought was good) turned out to be busts or useless players to my team

If I have any extra points, I use them on speed to unlock that actual rating.

The best way to set up draft scouting would be to only base scouts off of stats, combine, pro-day, measurables, and if you could "send" scouts to watch a player's college game, and bring back a report. And certain teams could hire better or worse scouts depending on how much they want to pay, and the better ones will be more accurate in their analysis, and worse would throw you off.

This would of course have to come with the addition of Hiring and Firing assistant coaches as well.

No dev has mentioned anything about draft guides or really anything CFM for that matter. And how would they be gone unless each draft class was completely randomized and not a set class like it has been for the past at least 5 years? People write the draft guides and post them online for others to read, there is no way for the devs to stop people from doing that.
