Franchise: Your UNEXPECTED Favorite Drafted Players?

[Boregard]

How about an undrafted WR - Washington, sorry can't remember the first name and I quit playing a while back.

A pot 97 spd, 90 + SPC, 90 CIT, 99 ACC, 99 AGI and tall - I think 6'3'', I actually drafted him with the last pick of the draft but he was slotted to go undrafted, he outperformed the guy I drafted in rd 1 all the time. He just made plays too - without me having to get control of him - he was the kind of player I expected the really highly rated superstars of real life to be like. He would fight for the ball - shock shock - on his own - it was almost like having a glitch player!!!

By far my favorite player in my franchise and I am much more of a defensive minded pound the rock guy.

I get bored of M10 before I get that far. Would you belive I have yet to progress my franchise as far as the post season? Anyway. All time, in Madden 07 I drafted a DT in the 3rd round that had a solid bench press and a large frame. He came out with 99 strength and just below Warren Sapp speed. His problem was that he was 24 and had a low injury and stamina along with miserable tackle and awareness ratings. I took a risk on this guy and wanted him to be a replacement for an aging Bryant Young. It paid off in spades. With user control he would blow up the running game and pressure the computer QB. Despite the low injury rating he hardly was hurt, but that may be in part because I had the medical staff stadium upgrade and the elite training staff. The point is, I took a risk on a player I normally would never pick and he had a career that would have put him in the 49ers hall of fame, and possibly the NFL hall. He was a MONSTER.

Could that be Xavier Washington? I'll have to look it up when I play Madden again - I think that's the guy. I know my Washington is a WR as well and was slated late - I thought 7th, but maybe he was Undrafted projection.

I drafted a CB named Jonathan James and a WR named Jammario Zinger in the same draft and both have blossomed into bonafide studs. James is the corner opposite Asomugha and has turned into a shutdown type himself, plus he tackles well when playing the run. Zinger is a guy I just leave in the slot a la Az Hakim or Wes Welker and let the speed take over.
