Any discussions about pass coverage (including picks) has to be nuanced and based on what game mode we're talking about. OD vs Arena vs LvL vs, say, a league champs on All-Madden vary hugely. The only common thread I can see is that man coverage on certain route types is pretty bad most of the time.
If we're talking about LvL, there can definitely be picks that feel 'random', ie everything about the process by the user felt correct but something unusual happened after release and it ended in a pick. As others have said, that's probably why most players are run-first in LvL. However, there are also a significant amount of drops by defenders where passes are sent directly to them that is equally unrealistic as the super-speed transportation that sometimes happens. Overall, I don't think interceptions in isolation are a huge problem.
The bigger problems as far as pass coverage in LvL is concerned, imo, are:
1) the LBs (and DL occasionally) being able to jump 15 feet in the air or developing 10-foot arms to bat balls down
