lol ok.... so....

1. It's not forced on anyone
2. It's not ridiculous or foolish or a waste of time. This a billion times better than longshot. It's customizable and it fulfills the desire of many to pretend they have athleticism and are able to go through the draft process as a QB.
3. This mode is bringing us the College Football Playoff and multiple playable college teams and games. Even for people that hate the mode, this is the closest to NCAA we've gotten for awhile and that we may get for awhile.

Do people really think that you'll replace the draft pick your team has taken in real life and the rest of the draft will be simulated taking this butterfly effect into account ? I say no way jose.

I can promise right now that I will play through, at the very least, the college series 10 times just to play on each college team.

Just provide an option for either. Similar to starting franchise and allowing users to choose current roster or full redraft.

Man, I’d say just make QB1 always be a butterfly effect type of deal where your players presence changes the draft. People who want rosters to stay the same and don’t care about draft position not making sense can just do a player CFM as a QB. They’ve already confirmed a lot of the features for QB1 mode will carry over to CFM if you play as a QB.

Shrugging off my points as “Well, use your imagination, it’s just a game lolol” is so weak. But I really shouldn’t be at all surprised because offline madden for the last decade has been left up to us players’ imaginations for any and all immersion.

It LITERALLY is a fantasy mode. So no its *NOT* cutting EA some sort of slack to have to use your imagination here, the whole point of the mode is that us couch potatoes are being drafted into the NFL...

So just to envision that scenario requires suspension of disbelief...why should the aspect of draft order then ruin anything?

There's nothing at all ridiculous or "waste of time" about, what is essentially MyPlayer mode for Madden. It's been very well received in NBA2k and Fifa. Most sports games really love the idea of putting themselves into a sports game.

If you don't like it then don't play it. Plenty of other things to do in Madden!

We likely aren't replacing anyone...my guess is well be in there with the other players. We shall see..
