Those fans are the ones who were very upset to find that this year's Madden will not feature a fantasy draft in the Connected Careers mode.

Online forums exploded with fans ranting about how they were not going to buy the game if it did not have a fantasy draft.Well, for those fans, it's time to go find yourself a Madden retailer.

Madden's official Twitter page tweeted this earlier today:
