The reason that so many people are complaining is because most find it not worthwhile to invest money at all to the scouts - much better off buying directly from the market. Even for the bottom teams who get the first few picks, they are still not guaranteed to benefit from the draft system (money invested in scouts>value of draftees). So I would like to offer a quick fix here: why not lower the scout cost, for example, by 50%? Because currently I think the scout is an investment too risky for most team - fair return, but very high risk. It is punishing the top teams for investing any money at all, which I don't think that is the purpose?

Um, you necromanced (making up words, yay) a year-old thread...? Well, just in case you didn't know, this thread no longer applies because the draft system is, in fact, new-ish.

Seriously, this is my solution. You can't make money off the draft unless you are incredibly lucky. So spend your $640,000 elsewhere.

I bet if everyone did that the BBs would work on a new draft system.



I spend 0 in the draft and I think that's the best investment choice. I can buy a decent rainee for 50k, so why invest 10k a week for the lottery ticket that will probably give me nothing but crap.

If you are a competitive team in a strong league you have to invest exactly 0 dollars to know that the players you can draft will be too weak to be useful anyway - training system makes this even worse...

So what about my last draft? I invested 200k and received near 1mil. You just have to evaluate, what's the average draft investment in your league. The new system removes random point usage. You can scout the players you want scouted. A lot better than before.

I always thought the drafts primary goal is to provide great players for weak teams and not to generate money...
