Exactly. A one-position trained 18-yo can achieve between 10-12 pops in his first season of training. So if you are choosing between a bad 18yo or great 19yo, that may be a hard choice. But you can always find decent 18yo in a draft class and those are always better than even A+ 19yo, considering 18yo gets a full season of training of course.

I will also give you an example: in the same season I drafted a 18yo PG with very bad shooting and a 19yo SG with very bad passing. They both received equal training in last three seasons and a half. Look at them now:

18yo (now 21yo):

Weekly salary: $ 13 609
Role: regular starter
(BuzzerBeta)

DMI: 319800
Age: 21
Height: 6'0" / 183 cm
Potential: allstar
Game Shape: proficient
Jump Shot: tremendous Jump Range: mediocre
Outside Def.: tremendous ↑ Handling: sensational
Driving: wondrous ↑ Passing: sensational
Inside Shot: pitiful Inside Def.: respectable
Rebounding: pitiful Shot Blocking: atrocious
Stamina: mediocre Free Throw: strong

Experience: awful

19yo (now 22yo):

Weekly salary: $ 16 592
Role: regular starter
(BuzzerBeta)

DMI: 109600
Age: 22
Height: 6'4" / 193 cm
Potential: allstar
Game Shape: strong
Jump Shot: tremendous Jump Range: proficient
Outside Def.: sensational ↑ Handling: sensational
Driving: tremendous Passing: average
Inside Shot: pitiful Inside Def.: respectable
Rebounding: mediocre Shot Blocking: respectable
Stamina: inept Free Throw: respectable

Experience: awful


They are different players for sure, but I like first better - he will be much better at the age the second player is in now.

but with the equal amount of training, they would be still different roleplayers but not so different in the skill set.

Right, but let's say I try to sell the older one now and then try to sell the younger one at the same age as I sold the older. Younger will for sure be sold for a higher price. Of course the deflation has to be excluded here.

depends when you want to sell, 21 and 22 makes not a real difference, 18/19 makes it. For a draft decision i would choose the younger one, too - but economical if you search a trainee a 19 year old might be the smarter choiche because the difference isn't that big and far away from 1 season.
