If we look at the top 10 picks, assuming EA choose a high praised rookie.. this is what we have to work with:

1. Carolina Panthers - Bryce Young , QB, Alabama | Division Releases Next Week

2. Houston Texans - C.J. Stroud , QB, Ohio State | RP CARD ✅

3. Houston Texans - Will Anderson Jr. , LB, Alabama | RP was Stroud QB ❌

4. Indianapolis Colts - Anthony Richardson , QB, Florida | Division Releases Next Week

5. Seattle Seahawks - Devon Witherspoon , CB, Illinois | RP was Bradford LG ❌

6. Arizona Cardinals - Paris Johnson Jr. , OT, Ohio State | RP CARD ✅

7. Las Vegas Raiders - Tyree Wilson , DE, Texas Tech | RP CARD ✅

8. Atlanta Falcons - Bijan Robinson , RB, Texas | RP CARD ✅

9. Philadelphia Eagles - Jalen Carter , DT, Georgia | Division Releases Next Week

10. Chicago Bears - Darnell Wright , OT, Tennessee | RP CARD ✅

I think it’ll be Will Anderson Jr personally

Panthers and Colts are both in the south and have had their players revealed. They're getting WR Jonathon Mingo and CB Julius Brents.

I would like Anderson from the top 10 as well but I think Bryce Young is still very much in play as the first overall pick.

Personally, I'm thinking it will be Young since he didn't get a card

Most likely Bryce Young, but I'm hoping it was a card that had a legendary rookie year and not one of this years draft picks.

Some of the greatest rookie seasons of all time include

Jim Brown 1957, Lawrence Taylor 1981, Gale Sayers 1964, RG3 2012, Jamar Chase 2021, Micah Parsons 2021, Jevon Kearse 1999, Randy Moss 1998, Devin Hester 2006, Justin Herbert 2020, Eric Dickerson 1983, Cam Newton 2011

Eliminating cards that already have 99 OVR like ROH (minus qbs because they are most upgraded player when adding a second free ability) and eliminating players that aren't already in the game leaves...

RG3

Chase

Parsons

Kearse

Hester

Herbert

Newton.

I think RG3 or Newton would be pretty popular to end the year and start the year off with.

Would love to have a god stack Cam Newton with a much better release. Not getting M24 until its on Game Pass so having a nice Cam for several months would work for me.

Whoever it is needs to be one of if not the best card at their position. Im thinking at least a 90ovr. Doing 27 sets not counting the 5 free ones we get,I believe anyways is alot of coins. About 12-14m in coins to do 27 sets. I'm sure some players can do it cheaper by sniping and building but I'm mainly talking about buying two 98's at a time and doing the sets like that which is about 480k-500k for each RP set. I'm guessing it will be Bryce Young but who knows.
