The players from the draft class that don't get drafted go to the FA pool and we get to sign them... that's usually when most of the DII players get picked up.
I can deal with the FCS schools like Deleware, App State etc. because they usually have 10-15 guys selected in the later rounds of the draft but I have a real problem when I see schools from Division 2 and 3 on that list, each year over 1400 FBS players are declared eligible for the NFL Draft, 250-270 are selected (depending on compensatory picks). The chances of a guy even being on a teams radar let alone their draft boards is astronomical. Danny Woodhead broke every single rushing record in NCAA history and wasn't even a blip on 31 NFL teams radar so I find it hard to believe that this many players from Div 2 and 3 would even be signed as UDFA's. It is a small gripe but for a game that prides itself on realism this shouldn't be such an issue. And it makes me start to wonder if this small issue was left untouched from Madden 12, what else was carried over?
