Hello, I am looking at trying to go really well in the draft this season and I have committed alot of money into over the last few seasons.
My question is what am i looking for in the draft?? I know I look for age and go for the 18 year olds but what's the next thing to look for? I have this guy but his potential is only 1 where as the other guy has potential of 5.
Some guys look better than others but the potential or grade rating isn't as good and vice versa.
Any help would be appreciated. Cheers

Go with the higher potential guy … no question!!!

never draft someone with potential rating of 1, they belong to the bottom of the list no matter what their properties are. Draft potential first.

After the draft is there a way of looking at where all the picks were positioned on your Board or only where your own picks were?

Also there seems to be fewer 5x5 players on my Board this season - I remember seeing they were making changes so that the 5 ball pot guys had a higher base level potential?

Is that why there are fewer?

What are the 4 and 5 ball potential levels these days do we know?
