Mock Drafts?

[premeteam]

I haven't seen anything on the board regarding this new feature. I'm only in week 3 of my dynasty so it will be awhile until I check it out.

How do you guys like it? Do they just project the first round or do they project every player who is leaving from your school?

I'd love to hear peoples thoughts on it

Re: Mock Drafts?

I think its cool but personally think they kinda half assed it. Its just kinda there. Its also frustrating as hell when you have a RS SO go pro and he is projected as a 5-7rd pick. It also tells you what round they didn get drafted in. I wish they would show you what team drafted them tho. I dont know if thats possible just thought it would be cool

Re: Mock Drafts?

Where do you even go to see it?

Re: Mock Drafts?

U see it at the end if the season. It's kinda just thrown together. U have to go team by team to see who gets drafted. I wish u could see all teams and everyone who gets drafted. It doesn't tell u what pick. Just the round

Re: Mock Drafts?

As many others have alluded to, it's alright. It has some good ideas but not put together very well. I would like to see every QB who was drafted instead of having to sort through all 123 teams. Also, it goes directly off a players OVR rating and nothing else. You can make a QB with 70 THP but a 99 OVR and he'll be drafted in the first round...

Re: Mock Drafts?

This was one of the feature that made me buy the game and while I enjoy the whole game.. This feature is poor and not accurate.

Unless you are playing a big time school, it is very hard to get a guy drafted...

With Buffalo, in my second season, I had HB Oliver (95ovr) with 1500+yards. WR Neutz (84ovr) 14th in the nations in yards and second for TD. And OLB Mack (86ovr) leading the nation in tackles, FF, TFL and a good 7 sacks.

And no one got drafted. I cheked all MAC team and nobody got draft either.

I dont expect MAC players to get draft a lot, but at least a couple SHOULD BE.

Also, in NCAA 12. Neutz and Mack were entering NFL draft after their junior years AND good seasons. The feature was weak, and did nothing with seniors but at least it was a bit better with some aspects.

I'm not sure it does go just by OVR I saw Geno Smith as a 95 OVR get drafted in the 4th round, while there was a 91 OVR corner that was drafted in the 1st.

Yeah its not just the ovr because I had an 99 ovr rb who had a poor season and he wasn't even drafted. The only reason this feature is there is for pro potential on recruiting

At the end of your season write down the top 10 QB's in order and then compare it to what order they are drafted in. It will be the same.

I wish they could be Imported into Madden Properly, then you could actually play with them.

That's mostly Maddens fault I really don't see it gone forever when NCAA see the support for its return they will push Madden for it to come back it just make take Madden a while to figure out how to integrate it...hopefully

Re: Mock Drafts?

I do think it is cool how it directly effects your dynasty with the recruiting pitch. That is pretty awesome.

It did it already it just didn't break it all down for you.

I think it has more to do with just OVR rating. I saw a 95 rated QB get drafted in the 5th round.

Was this 95 OVR QB the 6th rated QB in the game?

Here is the breakdown in order of their OVR rating of the two seasons I simulated. Outside of Keith Price who just disappeared, the same number of QBs were drafted in both years with the same in each round.

2012
Matt Barkely - 1st
Tyler Wilson - 1st
Landry Jones - 2nd
Geno Smith - 3rd
Logan Thomas - 4th
Jeff Tuel - 5th rd
Taj Boyd - 5th
Collin Klein - 6th (76 THA rating)
Mike Glennon - 6th
Seth Doege - 7th
Alex Carder - 7th

2013
Keith Price - ?
Aaron Murray - 1st
Zach Mettenberger - 1st
AJ McCarron - 2nd
Derek Carr - 3rd
Jordan Wynn - 4th (78 THP rating)
Casey Pachall - 5th
Danny O'Brien - 5th
Bryn Renner - 6th
Tyler Bray - 6th
James Franklin - 7th
Drew Allen - 7th
