Does anyone know if draft classes will be better?

Don't know, haven't heard anything yet, but if it is like last year, I won't be exporting this year as well.

I think this post might be better suited for the Madden forums, but look at it this way. Isn't the talent level rising with each class that joins the NFL? It would only seem logical to have high ratings for the rookies so you can actually get them on the field within the first 5 years of your franchise.

Well, the problem with that is each class has a few players coming in at 90+, with the majority of players being high 70s to upper 80s. After a couple of seasons of importing, every team in Madden is rated a 99 overall.

And yes, I think this post is better suited for the Madden forum.

Re: Does anyone know if draft classes will be better?

the thing i'm wondering about is are they going to put more players out there to draft. in a draft you will never run out of QBs or RBs. kickers/punters maybe but never QBs. towards the end of the draft teams start taking QBs from lower rated schools.

i want to have a greater selection of players. if my team is good at QB and i just need to get a guy that will replace a player that is leaving next year i don't want to draft a Eli or Rivers in the 1st round if i'm not going to need him. i'll take a guy like Sorgi or Harris in the 6th-7th round gladly.

I remember reading somewhere (can't remember) that the limited draft classes was a memory problem, so it's doubtful they'll be any better.

You read right. That EA guy said in an interview,( I read here at the almighty OS) that it is a memory issue. It was that Jerry Stauser guy.

I dont buy his memory issue one bit. They have 117 teams with 55 players in NCAA up until this year. Then you have to have a recruiting pool to recruit from. So if you can do it in NCAA why the heck cant you bring in an additional 100 players in the imported draft class. That would give 3 more rounds of players. If they dont want to do it that way then you can have imported players mixed in with generated players. They are full of caca by saying its a memory problem.
