NFL Draft - mixed bag

I expected to see a lot of stuff last night when I logged into the game about pick number 29-30 and was surprised to see that the NFL Draft challenges (required to advance one of the field pass areas) wasn't added. 

 

I was also disappointed to see that the added new players from the first round were well hidden and they also created a SELLERS market on the level 96 NFL Draft players needed to create the new draft night players.


Mid afternoon Thursday, I created a fair amount of 89-91-93 NFL Draft players and decided since my Free Safety is hot garbage, I made the 99 Gold Free Safety (was surprised that he was pretty good, since my FS has be a notorious weak link in my team, even dating back to my first marquis player Ed Reed from the first Legends release). Imagine my shock and disappointment when I tried to go and make the Cowboy's Number 11 pick, and 98 Safety and find that 96 players had inflated to almost 400 gold apiece. My 99 Gold safety cost me around 400 gold TOTAL and these Draft Night 98's are (I think) 3 x 96 Draft players PLUS an additional 96 wild card, inflating the cost up over 1 million for a 98.


I wanted to get one of the Cowboy safety's for a backup and Team bonus, but not at over 1 million after I'd already paid 400 for a 99 gold. Sigh.

 

This whole week, starting with the early end to Season 7, the unstable servers, missing challenges and SELLERS marking up mid level players... Another SIGH.

  • When are the other NFL Draft challenges going to be released? I see they're still not available...

     

  • The Good News: Prices on 96 Draft players has stabilized back to pre-event values (around 160k versus the gougers 400+ on draft night). and with some already existing cards, I was able to construct my #11 Cowboys 98 OVER SS.

     

    The Bad News: the lineup stability is so messed up, I haven't been able to manipulate the roster and move Caleb into backup SS. It took three attempts to get Tip Drill and Acrobat installed, now the game keeps **bleep** out and won't allow me to swap him to SubLB1 and enable to ability's. Baby Steps.
