prob depends on your place in the standings. i stopped a couple seasons ago after a couple really bad drafts. havent had a useful pick since the season 2 to 3 offseason.

I will likely have a bunch of humans picking ahead of me


You have humans in your league?


Sorry, humans and GMs.

Kids today.

Back in my day, we respected our elders!

Now, get off my lawn.

Well, it was easy respecting your elders when they were only Adam & Eve.

I definitely cannot say that I have much experience in this at all as I've only been around for one draft, but I am putting absolutely nothing into training this year.

I had scouted about 16 prospects did my best in ordering them and didn't come out with anything that was worth keeping. Two of my draftees were fired, one was sold for about $10k.

I'll take that extra money I save from NOT scouting and put it in my stadium, or save it and buy up a prospect I actually want on the TL.

I drafted last in my league. Put in 5k week. Drafted 2 MVP-s that sold for total 900k and one good enough SG to play at SF spot. I will put in 10k week this time!!! To get more info:)

So by the responses ...I take that it is still a crapshoot. haha.

I am the only human backed team in my D5 league. All the rest are bots. I am hoping to finish at or near the top. So according to this...put some money into scouting because i will probably get who i want since I am not up against brains.

Right?

That's what I'd do. Though I wouldn't put an absolute ton of money - I'd probably do $10k per week.
