Imported local draft class all prospects glitched

Summarize your bug I manually created a draft class in another franchise while game was in early access. In my team builder franchise I imported that local draft class. After the draft, all prospects have reverted to a default face, with no equipment and messed up dimensions. I cannot edit anything either. This appears to be the exact same bug as last year.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Import a custom draft class to cloud team builder franchise.
What happens when the bug occurs? All prospects have defaulted to some base template, and are unable to be edited.
What do you expect to see? A resolution. For imported draft class to keep prospect characteristics. This pretty much washed my franchise.

The fact that this same bug has occurred like 3 or 4 years in a row at launch, is unacceptable. And completely inexcusable given the technology and resources available to the development team to identify these issues. Which again aren't new. They literally happen every year.

    The option to download the draft class is there and it seems like it downloads, but it doesn't save the file, so I can't import any draft class. Plus the download center GUI looks TERRIBLE. 

  • The download center option pops up now. But still not able to download any draft classes. It gives the option but doesn’t actually download

  • Having the same issue after the patch update from this week.  The patch that was supposed to fix this issue.

  • Playing on PS5, DL draft classes from download center, says they downloaded but thy don' show up anywhere. 

    Load/delete in creation center or in active franchise, nothing.

    Also, new search process for community files is rough. Like to DL a draft class from the same creator, but

    can't search users other files as in past. Searching by username yields no results regardless, keywords are 

    random hunt n peck.

    Only multi-year draft class creator I found is one of the ones affected by the DL glitch.

    This isn't the only chain where people have complained about the download center. There's another chain that was started a month ago about the same issues with download center. Been a month and no closer to fixing it. Stop robbing us blind EA and actually finish your products before you ship them out. Terrible business ethics and a blatant cash grab every year.
