Will franchise keep track of REAL LIFE draft pick trades?

[OSTAJ34]

For example, in next years draft Seattle will have Denver's 1st round pick (Alphonso Smith trade) and Denver will have Chicago's first round pick (Jay Cutler trade).

Is this information put into the game?

Any word on trading future draft picks? Also, I really believe the cpu needs to be more willing to trade draft picks. There needs to be improved logic in this facet. If a team is struggling, they should value picks more. If they are in a position of winning, they should be looking to possibly trade picks for that elite player to put them over the top.

I hope so... in 09, when the roy williams (wr) trade went through.. in franchise mode the cowboys still had all their picks in the 09 draft.., so they pretty much picked up a decent player for free in "game world".

I'm praying they do, maybe even have an option for it or not.

Kinda makes you miss the PC version, with all the editors and stuff.

Maybe they can program it in, since I provided all the right picks to the teams...

Philly also gets a conditional pick from The Jets based on Lito Sheppard's peformance but there's nothing Madden can do about that one. 2nd-5th

True, I didn't include that one because Madden drafts have never had compensation picks..

Re: Will franchise keep track of REAL LIFE draft pick trades?

I started a thread about this about a week ago and never received any reply from the developers so not sure if it's in or not. It definitely should be, because if teams like Denver and Carolina have their first round picks back for 2010 in the Madden franchise mode, it would be kinda cheap since the teams that traded for them (Seattle and San Francisco) would get basically nothing and be at a disadvantage.

I think what I used to do was control all the teams and just make all the trades, then just control the team I wanted to.
