Also, I've had a 2nd rounder with 84 overall, he was a safety. I've also gotten a C with 85 overall in the 4th round [​IMG]

The highest EA usually goes with rookies is around 84-86.

    McIntosh is fast, venom.. Anyways McIntosh was supposed to be a mid-late first round pick, he should be at least an 81-2.By the way, I just entered those ratings exactly as he said and McIntosh was a 94... so now I made his awareness a 71 and his tackling an 83.

The highest he'll be would probably be around 80 and I highly doubt he hits 80. Maybe around 78-79.

The Number 1 overall picks and top picks are usually only in the 84-85 range to begin. If they excel they go up and if they play mediocre/dont play at all they usually stay the same or drop slightly.

    Not many 2nd rounders go above 80 but I bet McIntosh could

    What the heck are you talking about? McIntosh was argueably a reach at #35, as he was likely going to last for another 10 picks or so.

    Yeah I'm sure that's the reason why the Skins traded up and didn't wait 10 more picks.

[​IMG] Dont ask me why you traded up for him as far as you did either, that move was almost as brilliant as the Bills trading up for McCargo.

    Nah... McIntosh is great. Even before the draft, on that Saturday morning, on NFL World, I said he will in DROY. I can show it to you.But whatever let's not argue about this since we don't know if he's gonna get 30 tackles or 130.

He wasn't even mentioned being a first rounder.

    We did kinda reach for him but I'm really glad that we ended up getting him, he's the guy we needed the most here.
