Yeah man, I really do love your attention to detail on equipment as well. It's so cool to see just the starting the lineups of guys looking like players from the mid 90s. I'm gonna do a franchise with this roster and draft up to the year 2000 or so, which was my peak time as a football fan and Madden gamer.
I will be creating drafts but I probably won't upload them to the Community because they will be very tailored to my liking: I will only create players I remember or liked plus college players of that era that never actually made it into the league. For example, when I get your roster I'm gonna add Charlie Ward as a free agent. The 1993 Heisman winner -- as we all know -- went to the NBA to play with the Knicks instead of the NFL. In my alternate universe, he will play football.
Other college stars like Tommie Frazier of Nebraska (who led them to the national title) will be draftable in the 1996 draft. (In real life, he went undrafted.) I may make him a WR or HB to keep it somewhat realistic. I will probably do 100 to 150 players per draft, but since each draft has 450 players, I'm not gonna fill each one. For the players I leave as generic, they will have ratings significantly lower than the real players to create a clear line between the two. To be fair to the computer, I will put all the "real" players at the top of the draft projection. I may keep one or two generic "busts" near the top just to spice things up.
But I also plan to create real bust like Ryan Leaf: I'll make him with a normal development trait plus low ratings but projected top 2.
ANYWAY, this would not be possible without your base roster. I'm super excited about it. As I said, this is my fav era of football, and seeing it come to life like this is mind blowing.
