Just got the game, quick question

[clayshime]

Can you import draft classes from NCAA?

[xanmank]

No you can't. But the draft is the best part of this whole game. Most the the players are hand crafted by the developers and have an interesting back story behind them.

Plus, there are 4 different 15 year draft paths your career could go down, depending on what your first draft is. So, if you played it over and over, there is a potential for 60 unique drafts, each with interesting players and alot of personality behind it. This is the feature that EA absolutely hit a homerun with.

Thanks for the quick reply...that sounds pretty good.

yea the 2 drafts that ive done so far have been excellent. a lot of the players have some nice backstories/draft commentaries, and they also talk about players who come in future drafts.

for example in the buildup to my first draft adam shefter was hyping up alabama QB alex hurst, then in the next draft update he says hurst pulls a shocker and decides to stay for his senior year, and hurst winds up coming out in the year after.

Yeah I LOVE the draft, heck it brings me more joy than actually winning the super bowl. I love it when they mention that I just drafted a monster, a DE that actually line up with WRs in the combine and even blew some of the Wrs out of the water with his skills.

This sounds awesome. I'm looking forward to getting started. Couldn't believe I found it at Wal-Mart for just $10, I thought it was a mistake
