Do You Quit Out of the First Game Following a Terrible Draft?

You might think I'm messing with you, but I've had the Falcons and Rams playbook pop up 90% of the time.

And I'm one of those players that doesn't spend money, I used to pay for the Season Passes until EA banned me from the AH for no reason.

I'm honestly better off for it, my squad is still stacked and not a cent more to EA.

Haha I didn’t mean falcons I meant alternative playbooks such as run n gun or run n shoot. But yea sometimes you can get lucky and get a great playbook or stuck with pretty bad ones.

A lot of the runningbacks have poor route running and acceleration, so being able to put them out wide isn't a great advantage the way legitimate wide receivers with abilities can be.

Yea but still better than two qbs you can’t even use them both at the same time most frustrating selection at Least throw one random skill player in there

I keep going until I lose. Who knows what happens. If I always quit after getting a bad squad, it would take me hours to get my flawless. Take it as an opportunity to learn the playbook (if you don't already do that).

How long does it take to draft? I have never played before. What exactly do you do? How does it work? Sorry ty

I love it. No abilities. Lot's of fun

100% I feel bad for those that don't get the playbook you need. I am 11-2 so far running straight cheese.

That 1 loss came from my fiance turning my console off when I was 4-0 on my second run 🙃.

Second loss was redrafting. I am not going to try if all my dbs are 89-90 ovr as stated above.

The only positions that I absolutely need to be decent are my DBs and RB.

You mean”ex” fiancé, lol

If my 4 Dbs are all 89-90 ovr, yea I quit and redraft.

This right here .same

Between unfamiliar playbooks and draft options that don't allow you to fill meaningful gaps (like three rounds of power halfbacks), do you just quit? Every time I try to play through with terrible squads, I just get pummeled, and even the wins are agonizing affairs.

Yes...it costs no coins to redraft

So its under the MUT Draft tab next to "Play a Friend" on the play screen. You have 10 rounds to draft your team. First round consists of picking your Playbook (choice of random 3). You play 2 minute quarters with your newly drafted team. If you win 5 games in a row, you get a flawless pack. You can do it up to 6 times to get better rewards (rewards are shown on The NFL Draft screen). The draft itself takes only 3-5 minutes. Winning 5 games in a row is a different story. I managed to win 5 flawless today, be prepared to play some sweats.

This Game just sucks ass and will bring me to a asylum. You always lead by 14-0 and then nothing works anymore. DB‘s Not responding anymore. EA just make the Game interesting for the losing opponent! It is only made for you to spent Money!!

It says play h2h or CPU. Do you still get the rewards playing against CPU? And ty

No definitely not, I love getting 2 separate qb rounds and going onto the field with 89-90 overall dbs along with my running back as DT1.

Yep… great game mode EA. Not to mention it seems like every team I play got lucky and had an unstoppable force or double me in which the game is completely unplayable.

Weird my strat is just to go 1 DB at FS and go cover 3 the whole time, with some cover 2. I just pick DL and user w the rest of the defense picks. Its been working p well for me. 6 flawless runs in maybe 20 drafts and Im crap at madden. Having a defensive lineman 10+ ovr better than the OL is just OP

u can put a reciever at db if u run zone, imo they play the exact same only in zone tho

I think the playbook is more important than the players. I can win with any players but I can’t win with any playbook.
