There are two ways to play Draft Champions. Both modes start with you picking your head coach, and then entering 15 rounds of grueling player selections that fit your wants or needs. In round 1 you could get a selection of Kam Chancellor, Richard Sherman, or Andrew Luck. You pick your poison. You may never see another corner in the draft, or you may never see another QB. Likewise, if you take a QB early (say Joe Flacco), you may get to round 15 and see that you could have had Randall Cunningham, Peyton Manning, or Dan Marino for your choices. it really is an absolute crap shoot.
As far as the game modes go:
vs CPU: like it says, you draft your team and then you play 3 games against the CPU. First game is at Rookie level. 2nd game is played at Pro level with the 3rd game being played at the all-pro level. Obviously with each win vs the CPU, your next opponent gets tougher. I'm not sure what the rewards are for each level of completion, but I'd venture to say it's worth at least trying.
H2H mode: Again, draft your players but instead of 3 CPU games, you have a 4 game gauntlet of human controlled players. You may have the same players as your opponent, you may have complete opposites. That's the beauty of the game mode. Win all 4 games and you are handsomely rewarded with coins, players, and draft badges (that can be used to redeem several different sets, i.e. 10 badges get you 1 elite offensive and 1 elite defensive player. 100 badges and you can grab several players that were highly touted coming out of draft day like Adrian Peterson, Tim Tebow, Patrick Peterson, etc.)
If at any point during your quest for champion you lose, you are taken back to the main menu to try your luck again. It's a win or go home type deal. If you go home, you re-draft and you try your luck again.

Can you play friends in draft mode?
Posted on 8/26/15 at 1:40 pm to Macintosh504
Nope, that's probably the one and only complaint I have with the game mode.

I noticed this last night and I could be missing something but it appears that you can't create multiple players/coaches/owners in Franchise. If you want to create a new character you have to retire the one you currently have active. If that's the case then it's a really dumb move on EA's part to do that

I noticed something similar with bruce miller a fb for the 49ers. Crowd chanted bruuuuce.
Im loving the game. Especially the high and low passes. Also finally being able to throw those back shoulders.
The scouting seems too easy. You only get a peak at the three highest attributes.
I still dont get the jukes with modifier (except for truch ehich isawesome with lacy). Whener i try a lateral juke with modifier, the back goes into a backwards sideways motion.

Played with Christian Okoye last night on Draft Champions, he was straight running over people. Reminded me of Tecmo

Posted on 8/27/15 at 2:55 pm to Macintosh504
Yeah that's the only thing that I don't like about it I can ground and pound and chew clock and take up an entire half on one Drive Easily

So i literally cant re-sign my players in franchise.
Tim Lelito just turned down 80 million dollars. I was just seeing if they'd take anything at this point
Anyone having issues with this?

What week are you in? I couldn't resign a lot of players and Mo Claiborne turned down a shite load of money. Wait a few weeks for the resign prompt to come up.
