How to fix Madden 25 draft classes not working

" Madden NFL 25's Draft Classes feature is not working. Following are some solutions and workarounds you could try to troubleshoot the problem.

In Madden NFL 25, the Franchise Mode draft class is the lifeblood of your team's future. A collection of promising college players-both fictional and real-who may become cornerstones for your franchise, you select these through diligent scouting and evaluation during the annual draft, in hopes of picking up hidden gems to upgrade your team.

A strong draft class can really define your team for years to come. The infusion of young talent brings much-needed energy, athleticism, and potential to your roster. If you draft correctly, you fill your roster with players who will develop into star performers over time.

However, this can be a problem in game where you're not able to download or import draft classes. This literally means no new talent, your roster suffers and you're not even close to competing at the highest levels.

Draft Classes: Why They Are Such an Important Factor in Madden NFL 25, and How to Fix Issues When Unable to Download/Import.

Madden 25 draft classes not working: How to fix it

Unfortunately, there is no straightforward way to resolve this issue with the importation of Draft Classes as of this time. Well, although EA acknowledged the problem and then mentioned something about a workaround, nothing has been specified. Of course, no further updates or fixes have emerged since then, which means that players will have limited options. For the meantime, you might want to check unofficial workarounds or wait for an update with more concrete steps from EA.

Restart the Game and Console

"First thing, take the simple route and restart Madden 25 and your console. Many minor glitches, which also affect Draft Class issues, will be fixed this way. Reloading provides a fresh reconnect to the server, often times updating Draft Classes to load properly. Before attempting other troubleshooting steps, give this a shot."

Re-import the Draft Class

"If you are having problems with a particular Draft Class, try re-refreshing it. Go and delete the old Draft Class from your game, download it again from its source, and then re-import it into your game. Sometimes this may clear up problems caused by corrupted data."

Check for Game Updates

This does not work after restarting and re-importing your Draft Classes, an update may await for you courtesy of EA. Look for any game updates, for most bug fixes or glitches usually come alongside them. It could be the needed update to fix up whatever problem you may be having with the Draft Classes.

Try Using a Different Draft Class

This could also be an issue with the Draft Class you're using in Madden NFL 25. Some Draft Classes may be more prone to bugs than others. Downloading a different, more recent Draft Class - one created after August 12th, specifically - might temporarily resolve the issue. For reference, Draft Classes from College Football 25 cannot be used in Madden NFL 25.

That's what I changed:

• Conciseness: I have removed words and phrases not needed to be used in the paragraph to give its meaning more succinctly and forthwith.

 • Clarity: I tried to make it clear that downloading a new Draft Class may well be just a temporary solution.

 • Specificity: I included the date of August 12th when bugs might be less possible in newer Draft Classes.

 • Informativeness: Also, I have added information about how College Football 25 Draft Classes may not be compatible.

I hope that this paragraph is more legible, informative, and understandable.

Wait for an Official Fix

"If none of the above workarounds work, it's best to wait for an official fix from EA. Follow the news on official channels; patches or fixes regarding the issue of the Draft Class might be announced there. When this patch is available, update your game to install the patch."
