Well, IV.1 from Brasil.

i looked at all picks and besides a couple superstars and perenial AS, 90% were starters, stars or bench warmers.

yeah, and to think about it one more time... it isn't too bad after all...

i didn't get a good first round pick, i got a good second round pick.

the only team (i think) that got a good first round pick is the league champion, he got a perennial allstar.

my point in my earlier post that it's bad to have this seasons draft (and worse for having fourth to the last pick). But i'm not blaming anything or anyone. the draft system today is good.

Try and post your league's totals, not your players, this will quickly turn into the other thread.

Yes, i don't see any point to give 40k for draft then you getting such players, it's better to save that money about 400-500k in season and bought player which skills you see...

I had the last pick in each round this year and I spent 40k/week on scouting. I managed to get one perennial all-star and one all-star potential, both of whom play positions I train. I think that the revenue they will bring in after half a season of training will pay for their scouting costs and then some, especially the perennial all-star who looks like a baller.

People are getting needlessly scared by what they perceive as low potential. The fact is that NT players with all-star potential have wages of $30,000-$40,000 and are still below the cap. This means that most teams can easily train a starter-star player for at least a couple of season without any problems.
