Oh believe me, I noticed the punter issue! I could write it off as a terrible decision that caused everyone to get fired and be mocked by future NFL fans for generations to come...except they were rated the highest draft class, and their best value was for taking a punter as the fourth overall pick!
Incidentally, when I went to create new classes, NCAA can still see the old ones (asks me if I want to overwrite, etc). Yet Madden can't!
