Looks pretty accurate in my opinion.

Looks good I'd say McCarron is a little overrated but other than that.

SO with high 90's ratings... I know he is good, but really??

It seems like they are making good players into gods, and great players into Titans. The normal D2 scrub can now run a 4.5 40...

Why does the screenshot for C.J. Mosley not include C.J. Mosley?

Everything looks good to me except this one point when discussing Braxton Miller:

"Miller is a very good passer (91 Throw Power, 84 Throw Accuracy)"

He is an excellent runner as a QB, but not that good as a passer. He finished tied for 43rd in the country in passer rating at 140.5 (McCarron was #1 at 175.3). His YPA of 8.0 is tied for 25th with 9 other QBs. His completion percentage of 58.3% was good for 80th in the country.

Do those stats really show someone who is a very good passer to you?

I know I am a Michigan fan so this may sound like the homer in me talking. He is a very good QB because of his legs and that opens throwing opportunities for him, but to say he is a very good passer is a little laughable.

Just compare that year of his to Denard Robinson's from 2011 (2012 he was injured for 5 games and was not a QB so the stats aren't a fair comparison).

2011 - 55.0%, 8.4 YPA, 139.7 passer rating.

Keep in mind Denard had 15 ints that year to sink his passer rating as opposed to the 6 Miller had in 2012. Everyone, including myself would admit Denard Robinson is not a very good passer. He was electric because of his legs first and foremost.

How bad of a passer he was in real life doesn't matter. The fact that he has 91 THP and 84 THA is what makes him a good passer in NCAA '14 (although I wouldn't call that very good). The guys that have THP and THA both in the 90s are what I'd call very good.

Also for Lewan I think his pass blocking is probably a tad high. He is an excellent run blocker, but when pro scouts were evaluating him his pass blocking was viewed as needing improvement because he is still a little raw in that area.
