elegantelliotoffen Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 I havent played the series in 3 or 4 years but I like that it familiarized me with alot of the players coming our in the draft. How were our draftees rated in this years game? And for those of you disrespecting me I would view this video of myself before your words get you into more trouble with me Dont mess with me please Dislaimer- I understand that football video games are not an accurate representation of actual football and I don't have ulterior motives in asking if anyone knows the ratings. I'm just curious. Update- Hardy was a 91
Captain Hindsight Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 Why are we going off their rankings in a video game?
elegantelliotoffen Posted April 27, 2008 Author Posted April 27, 2008 Why are we going off their rankings in a video game? Im just curious, I just remember that some players in the game had super high ratings but were drafted later. I think Max Jean Gillies had like a 98 rating or something and that made me want the bills to draft him super bad!

Captain Hindsight Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 no sh-- dummyIm only saying that you cant go off those ratings. The people that make those games dont work for an NFL front office or a college scouting department and you should never go off their rankings ever

I'm just curious. sorry, this is only for very serious football talk with very serious football people. if youre not trying to prove youre right about something, it doenst count. (for the record, i have no idea what the rankings were or else id post them)

Kiper and mcshay have more knowledge than the guys at EA sports
DrDawkinstein Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 i wasnt trying to bash him just make sure he keeps it in perspective, its a video game..... Kiper and mcshay have more knowledge than the guys at EA sports yeah but EA has more knowledge than 99.9% of the board, so then what?
elegantelliotoffen Posted April 27, 2008 Author Posted April 27, 2008 yeah but EA has more knowledge than 99.9% of the board, so then what? Eric Allen is pretty smart.
CajunBillsBacker Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 For the hell of it, I turned on the game and checked.... Cox: 83 Johnson: 80 Bowen: 91 Hardy 91 Fine: 88 Ellis: 93 Corner: 87 McKelvin: 85 Bell and Omon are not 1A, so their team isn't in the game
JStranger76 Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 He stated right off the f****n bat that he knows video games ARE NOT an accurate measure of the real abilities. He was just curious, it's gonna be OK!.........
Lurker Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 yeah but EA has more knowledge than 99.9% of the board, so then what? Post of the day....

We should have targeted a player who was rated at least 89.
