I guess I will! ;)
What I meant is that... even if it's a problem, if it's the value given by a lot of manager, then it's the true value of these players, and doing something against it would be abusing of the rule of overbidding.

Hell no,because this does not have sense.The price of a player had to be compared to the overall market,because at this point a manager that was punished with a TPA could ask"Why do you punish me?Also a player with all atrocious skills can worth 5 M if someone is so crazy that want to offer me this kind of money"

Why doesn't it make sense if many managers are willing to pay some millions to buy a great prospect? If there is a bidwar for the best 18yo after draft and people are willing to pay 3+ millions to get a player with MVP+ Potential and high starting skills than thats fine, but I doubt that there are many who would pay anything to get an all atrocious player ;)

Well I didn't follow the market this season as much as last season (I bought an american SF prospect for over 1.8 Million ... there were quite a lot which where more expensive) and there were 18yo who were sold for around 3 millions ( I think he (18235389) was the most expensive 18yo last season)

I think Grubbs would have been a lot more expensive if his outside skills (especially Outside Defense) were better

Wow, that team that has him right now is a total farm team. Does nothing but sit in D.V with random D.IV promotions with a roster full of scrubs and trainees. Keeps its cash supply up with low salary and selling off of trainees when they become unmanageable in salary. That's why they were able to afford him.

I think that the problem is not in the market. The anomaly is in the draft. There is no other aspect of the game in which the random may have so an impact on a team's history. In a game in which the main managers' activity is to mantain a good economy, the arrival of extra, substantially randomly assigned, 2-3m $, brakes the equilibrium in a not right manner. Think this should be somehow corrected.

Because they will find the players full trained for 5-6-7 seasons with the same price,and in these 6 seasons they save,they can train other players
Isn't that more logical?

Is it against the rules to play illogically? If someone wants to bust out for a rookie, that's part of the game. If it's a farm team , that's part of the game. If it's the luck of the draft, that's part of the game. As this game gets older there will be many niches that will make some people upset but others happy to be able to fill. A draft is a random thing. Ask the guys who drafted Sam Bowie. Maybe next year you will get the golden egg. Maybe not.

Once I scored a basket that still makes me laugh.
