I notice looking at some FAs who are rated prominent, proficient, etc who dont look any better statistically than a respectable or average guy.

heres an example
http://www.buzzerbeater.org/BBWeb/playerbox.aspx?playerID=2701517
supposed to be prominent in inside D but gets almost no blocks and steals...

3.5 million bucks?
seems like a waste of money to pay these types...whats up ?
Am I missing something?
thanks

I wouldn't look solely at the player stats from previous games because all of the players on the transfer market come from different leagues where you have different levels of competition.
You have to look at the player you're thinking about bidding on and deciding if he'd be a good addition to your team playing in your league.

Of course some players do just like to score more or foul more etc but generally i only take the previous games stats as a small indicator when looking on the transfer market.

More directly:

A 'prolific' offensive player will do better against an 'average' defense than he would another 'prolific' defensive player.
