For more details about projected declared underclassmen, FCS players added, or for info on how to get the rosters used to create these classes in NCAA to make your own edits, please see the following thread:

I have spent quite a bit of time tuning these classes to ensure that no player was rated too high and that there was a decent amount of balance of ratings from position to position. I did not spend too much time on making sure the top guys are consistently first rounders, as last year showed there can be considerable variance from the start of the CFB season to the draft (Barkley as the prime example) but for the most part the studs like Bridgewater and Clowney are almost always top 5 picks and 80ish OVR.
Please do post any observations in this thread and anything that needs to be corrected. While I will not go out of my way to make updates, I will keep a tally of all of the things that need to be changed so that when I do make an update I can get them all fixed.
DO NOT POST ABOUT INCORRECT SKIN COLORS. This is an issue on the Madden side of things and AFAIK is random, with nothing I can do to fix it. I made sure that everyone had the correct skin colors in NCAA, and that is all I can do.

Directions for using these draft class files (Thanks to Stafford2Johnson):
1. Get a game save from M25 onto your flashdrive (roster)
2. Download the draft class file here (extract from the RAR file)
3. Open MODIO. I don't know if Horizon works as well. ( http://www.game-tuts.com/community/modio.php )
4. Click "open a save" and open the draft class file
5. Click "open a save" and open the M25 game save
6. Copy the "PROFILE ID" from the M25 roster file and paste it into the "PROFILE ID" of the draft class
7. Repeat step 6 except with "DEVICE ID" in stead of Profile ID
8. Click 'rehash and resign' on the draft class
9. Open USBXTAFGUI-v44 ( http://digiex.net/downloads/download...-download.html )
10. Click on FILE --> OPEN DEVICE SELECTOR --> (Your Flashdrive)
11. Click on DATA PARTITION --> CONTENT --> E00000F7D(cont..)
12. This is where it gets interesting. Within E00000F7D(cont..) right click on FILE and click CREATE NEW.
13. Name the new folder "45410000"
14. Now create another sub-folder within "45410000". Name it "00000003".
It should look like this As long as you have the 45410000 folder and the 00000003 folder within it, you should be all set.
15. MAKE SURE YOU ARE IN THE 00000003 FOLDER AT THIS POINT. Right click and select "INJECT". Choose the DRAFT CLASS that was rehashed and resigned in modio.
16. Once your draft class is in 00000003, you are all set. Plug the flash drive into M25, load, and enjoy.
*** The Draft Class files will not show up on your Xbox dashboard. You will need to go into the game to use them.***
NOTE: the download link for XSTAF is a link I got from google. I already had the program on my computer before doing this.
