Where do the Madden names of Draft picks come from after your first season?

Question

I have always wondered were they get the names for the draft picks in madden after the first year. Are they all just fake?

Answer 1

I believe they are just randomly generated using names already in the game. For example, Steve Smith and Antwann Randel El are in the game. In the first draft you may have a guy named Antwann Smith. I think the computer just generates them.

Answer 2

They are fake I think they take names from the NFL rosters and rearange them. Like Peyton Tomlinson
