reply to my post in our forum. I posted what I see there from the draft link there.

Do we have any idea if players 1-48 are the same for everyone in the league? I'm willing to compare with a fellow Naismither to find out.

draft is pretty much over for me. made group demonstration, everything looked good. then scouted 6 players individually and all of them turned up to be 19yo and only one with 4 star potential

This is true: although in general, the best players should be at the top. Or at least they would be if the initial impression was any good.

I think as a precaution, the BBs ended up 4erring on the side of caution when deciding how accurate to make the lists, and rewarding those that put in a lot of money waiting for the new system. if I were to guess, I'd predict future drafts will have slightly more accurate first impressions.

well, if i knew that each team has different list, i would scout top players. i scouted 1 and 2 star players because i will have one of last picks.

I just have a question. List of 48 players is only for me, so If i find one star player I am sure to get him or list is for whole league? just making sure

I suspect that information on the lists are all slightly different.
However, the players on the list are the same for everyone in the league. (i.e. the only thing that changes is that different people have different information about the same players)

I dont think I understood what you wrote. Do you mean that when i have a 5 star and 2 star potential player, when different team from my league scouts the same player he will get different info? or do you just mean that position on list (number) is swaped?

Yeah, just the number will be different, and the original rankings before scouting. So, if he was originally showing as 2 balls before you scouted him, he could have originally been showing as 5 balls before scouting for someone else in your league. However, once he is scouted, he will be the same in skill and potential for both of you.
