Auto Draft Classes

One of the things EA said was better 1st round prospects. I did a quick season to check this out while waiting for the scouting update. There were several stud players. An 86 RB, 83 WR with a 8.3 combine score, an 81 and 78 QB and a 79 CB with 96 speed. Hopefully the scouting portion works as well as the new prospects.

I hope there's more of a fog of war element. The draft is super unpredictable and you should be drafting busts every now and then. Now that we're moving away from the green/red diamond system where you see actual talent we can start drafting based on skills we know rather than actual talent level.

Agree 100%. Also would like to see injury history be more a part of it. There’s always highly rated guys who get hurt and bust out. There’s so much they could do with it. I was just impressed at the improvement of quality of the top guys.

The couple of draft classes I've seen are too strong. Way too many players starting out in the mid 70s.





I've liked the last couple of Madden's with their toned down draft classes.

I was wondering about this as well. They said they created more unique prospects and in my first auto generated class there was nothing unique about the prospects at all. I was wondering if the draft class generator would be tuned when the scouting update comes out or if these “unique” prospects were there out of the box. Appreciate any info anyone has.

I’m gonna sim another season today to test it. There were like 6-10 that really stood out then the rest were like a typical auto class.

I've done a few drafts so far and I've been pleased with the results. Some studs in the first rounds, fringe low 70s starters in 2-4 and even some duds in the later round. I've purposely not paid attention to what the new scouting update includes to be genuinely surprised by it.

Absolutely. It really makes you have to make decisions about whether to trade up or not and build an actual draft strategy.
