Draft Board

[Godgers12]

Any word on if they have added the draft board back into franchise? It is especially vital for us online franchise players. They haven't had it since they switched to this CFM format. As it stands, if you are unable to make the draft for whatever reason, you're better off just trading your picks, rather than have the CPU draft you a FB, OL or something like that.

No changes this year. I feel the draft will get some development love next year. It's due.

It already got some love this year with the random draft classes and them supposedly fixing the issues with rookies (mismatched names and 70 spd WR's etc). Hopefully next year they can add some sort of auto draft feature for online players (similar to how most fantasy football sites handle it with a player Que) and work a little more on the presentation.

See this confused me a little, didn't they say that each player was hand made and went on and on about what a time soak it was to make the draft classes?
Then when asked about the issues with draft players in one of the streams, they never came out and said "YES WE FIXED THAT" all they said was we designed it to be realistic. But didn't they make all the players last year "realistic"? Why were the last year drafted players who were made by hand "NOT HAVE REALISTIC NUMBERS" but we ASSUME now it is fixed?
I'm willing to bet there are still going to be draft players with high potential and low speed.
I hope im wrong, but I have a little voice in the back of my head saying, "thats not what they actually said"...

Not every player in real life that has high potential has high speed even at spots like rb and wr. Kelvin Benjamin wasnt drafted in the first cause he was a burner for example or say Kyle Fuller he may be a potential but be 91 speed not 96 plus like a Gilbert was is also an A potential.
