Also again unless you have gamefilm, can you tell me that you'll actually know how your 3rd round FS did in the game, other than looking at the stat sheet? Yeah you may notice he made a pick or had an open field tackle but that doesn't mean he did a great job. Guys can get beat 20 times in a game and if no balls are thrown that way you'd never know. Anyway, I'm glad people are happy with it...sincerely.....I just think they missed out on the most realistic way to evaluate a player.

You said you were a coach so I'll take your word for it.

Since you can now edit player ratings in franchise mode you could always look at the ratings for yourself and then play the preseason games to see if someone performs better/worse than their ratings.
