Re: puja21 franchise vJan12 (150+ NCAA players in draft class)
Here is information on the draft class editing i've done::
Since my last franchise post, all sophomores and stay-in-schools have been removed except for Brian Brohm & Tom Zbikowski (whom I just noticed at the last sec and didn't feel like fixing).
The current post contains 164 created prospects w/ accurate Ht, Wt, jersey #, face/skin, & DOB. Conversely, the ratings & equipment accuracy is completely up in the air; some guys are spot on while others haven't been touched.
ATTACHMENT
Zip file contains 2 spreadsheets:
(1) "Created Draft Prospects" contains the names, pos, #, ht, wt, cls, & their OVR ratings as of now-- so you can easily see whose ratings you'll want to adjust on your own.
(2) "Game Generated Prospects"
This sheet is a list of all the prospects which can be viewed and drafted in the game. NOT EVERY DRAFT CLASS PLAYER visible within Finn's editor will show up in the game. This is because of glitches involved w/ importing a default draft class (which keeps the franchise from freezing). So, if you want to add yourself or some additional college prospects to your franchise on your own, you should use this spreadsheet to determine what players you can copy-over/replace. Everyone on this spreadsheet WILL appear in the game's 2007 draft.
For the same reason, there are also 5 buggy players who can be seen in the game's draft, but don't appear in the editor. Their ratings are in the 20s and 30s so at least they don't get drafted. They are:
(1) TE "Dale ____", North Carolina State
(2) OLB "Dale her", Columbia
(3) SS "Alexander _____", Wake Forest
(4) G "Donald _____", Oklahoma
... The underscores indicate these players have no last names. Ignore these buggy guys. They have no impact whatsoever on the franchise.
UNDERCLASSMEN
There are no Ted Ginn Jr.s, Adrian Petersons, or Antonio Pittmans.... yet. (The deadline to declare is Monday, so check back next week. In my next update, I will have all the declared underclassman in the file.
I know I am missing some players who already declared for the draft (5 of them I think offhand). This is because it's VERY time consuming to add players to a franchise draft class-- both b/c of the name change process and getting appearances correct (I have to sim ahead to week 9, edit prospects in the game, and then copy them back over the original file).
In addition to late-declares, I also have about ~70 more players to add from the following positions: FS, G, ILB, OLB, RB, SS, TE, WR. I've just been going alphabetically by position. This is why some guys like WR Steve Breaston still didn't make it in. And why there are already a bunch more DEs, DTs, Cs and CBs in the file today.
