Draft guide Madden 15?

[MAddengod84]

Just wanted to know if anyone knew of a draft guide that was coming out this year? If it's even possible

Random draft classes, so every one is different. No cheat sheets this year.

Re: Draft guide Madden 15?

so no equalisation with the cpu, ie you scout you find a gem, the cpu knows you found a gem, the cpu drafts gem several rounds before projection

Or....perhaps the cpu scouted and found the same gem. Valued them much higher than you did and drafted them at a spot that is more fitting for that player. There is no equalization when the drafts are not random and you have a cheat sheet.

To me thats the way it should be, so Im glad they changed it. Now people cant cheat there way thru the draft, and then think they did something great, now everyone has to work for it, and cant go looking at a list of who are all the gems in the draft.

I save the franchise to a different name right before the draft, sim the draft then I look at each team at each position and find where the gems are. Then I right it down where they were drafted go reinstall to before the draft and draft the guys I want a few picks before where they were drafted in the sim daft. I play franchise offline

Thats a pretty extensive and dedicated method to being cheap and borderline cheating.

You might as well tell EA to take scouting of the game.

Re: Draft guide Madden 15?

Whatever works, if you play the game however you want offline without it effecting any other people, that doesn't bother me any. Just like changing all of their stats to 99 before you start a franchise. No one should be able to tell you how to play your closed game, as long as no one else is being cheated.

PS- Do the same players get drafted in the same order every time? Or are there variations?

I agree if you want to cheat the AI in your franchise then thats your right, not the way I will play the game as I like a challenge, but each their own I suppose.
Only thing that annoys me about people like that, is the ones who go around bragging about all the Gems they find in the drafts and how many champiosnhips they have won, and act like they are this some great GM or mastermind

Lol "Undefeated on Rookie" syndrome

Re: Draft guide Madden 15?

i might understand the chance that a scouted a player that i did and valued more, so i did a bit of testing. drafted with no scouting, drafted with scouting the "gems", ie for test purposes simmed draft then identified gems and then scouted them in prior save file

first draft board order changes for the same player which is good stuff imo
downside every player i scouted as a gem was identified by the other teams. i only have 6300 points by offseason 4, i cant indentify gems across the board and positions with that number of points. what i would say is that certain teams avoided busts more than others

i dont agree with draft guides , i dont use them in my offline franchise but i want it to be a level playing field and atm i dont feel it is. now ea could come back and say we can prove it is etc but i have zero confidence in ea in anything they say about content that is present or works

Re: Draft guide Madden 15?

I only scout players that are projected to go in the first 3 rounds on positions that I have needs. After that I go on scheme fit, for example my Mlb is 3-4 tackler, so I only scout 3-4 tacklers at that position. I have no problem finding good players in the later rounds.
So I do feel that its a level playing field when it comes to scouting

this is a good strategy. it's pretty much what i do when i don't have a draft guide.
