why isn't JJ Jansen a 99 overall at long snapper?

I know it is a joke, but I will answer it anyway. 

Madden doesn't even consider that a real position.  It hurts my heart to cut him every time I start a franchise because he is rated a 37 overall or something ridiculous.

If it's in the game, it's in the game.  Unless its long snappers.

EA is absolutely terrible and I hate that it is the only choice for an NFL game. 

I heard a while back they were letting the license expire and that was changing because their head is so big they think they don't need it.  I don't know why they have this attitude, but I would love a new edition of NFL2K or even Blitz.

Yeah unfortunately sports games peaked around 2005.  Then all the exclusivity agreements ruined everything.

I would be so hype about a NFL front office game similar to Out of the Park Baseball.

When you contractually eliminate all competition you get stagnation. EA has no market incentive to improve their product. They can't sell a ton of copies simply by being literally the only game in town.

Ironically 2K did the same thing to baseball in response.  EA's MVP 2005 Baseball is one of the best baseball video games ever made.  In response to EA killing NFL competition, 2K secured the exclusive third party rights to baseball and killed off the best baseball game.  It's bad for everyone.

Bad for everyone except the company holding the exclusive rights. It's great for them. They don't care about producing a quality product, they care about extracting maximum profit.

As bad as that was 20 years ago, now we're in the era of ultimate team.  Everything's got some stupid card game that drives all the revenue.

It's not really if you have the time to sink into it. NMS players can still have a good squad that can compete with almost anyone. 

Of course you will run into a few P2W players.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
