Franchise Draft Picks

  • Why aren’t draft picks being updated along with roster updates?

    Hey @dya773

    Is this happening in an offline Franchise, or is it Connected Franchise?

    Its happening on all franchises. The trades that happen are not reflected in the roster. For example The Raiders Acquired T Justin Herron and a 2024 seventh-round pick from the New England Patriots in exchange for a 2024 sixth-round pick. The player is on the Raiders but the picks were not swapped in the roster update. This has constantly been the case. Then you have to trade some random free agent to get the picks right if you want to run your franchise accurately to what it is IRL. 

  • @dya773 it's because EA/Madden without telling customer prior to buying the new game is only updating the live roster for release, week 1, week 10, wild card round, and Super Bowl. They stopped doing it for other weeks so any trades in-game do not reflect the accurate rosters for franchise.
  • 2 years later and same issues.. good thing EA made this forum. But I imagine it takes too long to go through the thousands of issues they have every year.
