Favorite 'Generated' Rookies (Possible Spoilers)

[ubernoob]

After starting many a franchise and playing them a couple years, I was wondering if y'all kept a list of rookies that you will draft no matter what when you see them in game.

Here's a start of mine:
RB - Jelani Okoye: Dude is a straight up monster on the field. Bigger than everyone, good SPD, and can't take a hit and keep going with the best of 'em.
QB - Tristan Riley: After a year or two, my man had 99 for all the accuracy categories with about a 90 THP
RE - Emeka Mourning Was a great end in the few games I had with him. Great pressure.

There are more that will be posted, when I'm not on my phone

Good thing you put (possible spoilers) as your title or there would be some really angry people on here. I'm afraid to list my best generated rookies.

From a single class... these are all head coach guys

QB Jack English = John Elway
QB Dane Morrow = Dan Marino
QB Kelly James = Jim Kelly
HB Leron James = Ladanian Tomlinson v2.0
WR Jamarion Bellows = A faster version of Marvin Harrison IMO

Tim Tribow. QB, #15, out of Florida.

Okoye is a monster. I think he's about 6'1" and weight 333 pounds. No, that's not a typo: 333 pounds. A lot of those guys are NFL Head Coach guys. I can't wait to play with them on Madden. I'm running a test franchise now to test out sliders on before I start my real franchise. I look forward to this.

I was surprised about Riley (yay for recognizing head coach names. I got him in the 5th) but his rookie year they were all 91-94 if memory serves me right. Unfortunately I haven't seen his name pop back up yet.

333 for a HB? That's bigger than the linemen he is running behind.

WR's Xavier Washington and Flash Gorden are MONSTERS!

Both have high 90's for all positional attributes. The only downside to these guys is that Washington's awareness starts out at 25! And Flash Gorden has catch rating somewhere in the 70's, but it can be worked on in 2 seasons no problem. And yes, Flash Gorden's speed and acc are both 99, as well as his Return.

My only gripe with these hand crafted rookies is this - I feel REALLY stupid drafting someone named Flash Gorden, and LaRon James. I wish all names were randomly generated...

Re: Favorite 'Generated' Rookies (Possible Spoilers)

some of those names are just ridiculous lol.

are these like names that appear in every draft naturally? or did you guys import them from NCAA or head coach?

ive never played NCAA or HC so i dont know how they work.

just curious.

thanks

"Boar Jackson" is in the draft class for the season I'm playing. I know that it's Bo, and he's going to be a beast. I'm considering attempting a massive Ricky-Williams-to-the-Saints trade up to get him, though it will be a little funny drafting a guy named Boar.

Re: Favorite 'Generated' Rookies (Possible Spoilers)

and this is the exact thread ive been waiting for and griping about a month or so ago with the draft classes using the static names/info instead or being randomly generated so it was never the same name and attribute combo.

now the cheesers can look for these threads and totally ruin the point of scouting in online franchises or gambling on picks and just go for the guys named in these type of threads and get an edge on knowing who theyre getting ahead of time while everyone else is gambling and taking risks on their draft picks.

im just waiting for the nerd who is going to compile the list in excel format from all 30 draft classes to TOTALLY mess it up.

Hey check out another WR in that same draft class, he's projected as a 2-3 round. Inititals JL.
