Out of the three videos posted, all I've seen is several flaws in the draft logic. Maybe I've become to cynical to be imaginative in my old age, but this is extremely disappointing to see. I'll give them credit for the presentation, but I'd rather have effective drafting than Trey talking about picks. Clearly, I'm in the minority, but hey.

They really should bring back the Coach/GM/Owner logic that was implelented into HC '09. Would do WONDERS for this promising mode. Maybe next year?

EDIT: I just saw the fourth straight video where a TE is taken #2, clearly this is a glitch.

Austin Montana State Franklin College Fairfield William and Mary Canisus Western New Mexico Weber State Henderson Emporia State North Carolina A&T Chatanooga Regina UW Lacrosse I am sure I missed some too. Its a minor gripe but it kills the authenticity of the game when I see more players from Division 2 schools than the SEC.

Yeah I can agree with you on that one, way too many lower schools that appear to be highly touted draft selections. I see that most of the QBs are from FBS schools, but when you look at the OL most of them are from FCS or Division 2 schools. That's kind of always been a flaw with Madden's precreated draft class (and every other game for that matter)

I agree that it doesn't quite reflect how things really play out IRL. I didn't pay attention, but are there a lot of these schools but were they projected high draft picks? Also, keep in mind that they intentionally made the draft classes larger so there were real UDFAs so they didn't have magic ones show up to fill our rosters. The players from the draft class that don't get drafted go to the FA pool and we get to sign them... that's usually when most of the DII players get picked up.

Will you be able to transfer draft classes from ncaa 13? Do they still have that option? If so i wonder how much that changes the dynamic of this feature. I don't own Ncaa13 but i would def Gamefly it to upload real name college rosters, make a couple of draft classes and do a Madden franchise... would be nice to have the drafts conducted like this with real named college players. Any body think these options are possible... wasn't gonna get Madden 13 but this increases the chances when its more subversive.

No draft imports.

if this is true, that the 2nd pick = TE everytime, I hope that there is a gamechanger or someone who can somehow alert Looman about this.

its a massive fail if a team needing a qb at pick 2 goes TE because of a glitch. hope thats a day 1 fix.

Why would the 2nd pick be a tight end everytime? Is there evidence of that in the retail game?

I've seen 2 draft vids and both 2nd draft picks were TE's. Not really enough evidence to go off saying a TE is picked everytime, but it's still a little high.

Would like to see year 2 and year 3 of those drafts instead of the same 1st year draft in each of those vids.

So having no/low standards is a good thing because the topic happens to be something based in entertainment?? O.....k.

# 235 BTownSlinger @ 08/22/12 09:28 AM

The new CBA and rookie wage scale was put in place so a WR or TE could go that early in the draft now.

They are the vids, I was on about. 2 different TE's from what should be 2 different draft classes taken 2nd overall.

Cant watch the vids here at work, are those 2 vids of the same CCM and one for 2013 draft and the other for the 2014 draft?

No, they are different CCM's. Both '13 draft (I think).

Just seems a bit odd that a TE would even be drafted so high. But for it to happen twice in different CCM's is cause for concern... lol

# 239 IWWROCKS @ 08/22/12 10:00 AM

But isn't the draft class the same?

I mean the same base player skills, but with randomized names?

If so it's not a problem to me if the TE is going 2nd overall in both drafts cause they are the same player. Maybe it really is a once in a lifetime, guranteed hall of famer TE.

# 240 Juce734 @ 08/22/12 10:05 AM

Tight ends are becoming even more important in todays NFL thanks to the Patriots, Saints, and other teams showing how big of a mismatch it is to have a lineback or a corner defending one. You either have the speed advantage or the size advantage.

Football is all about match ups.

Taking a tight end with the #2 pick is not as bad as some have said.
