Recently I have given though to selling off one of the 5 players I am training. I have increased their value and could make a little profit off of them on the market.

If I end up selling them I was thinking about buying a SF or big SG. I would be looking for a young (18,19) guy with MVP or above potential. Then I was thinking about training him with my post players at the PF position. This would increase his ID,IS,R and make him more well rounded. I could always train his other skills in a few years when I have stopped training my posts.

What do you think or suggest? Has anyone done this in the past?

it is maybe the easiest way to create a SF, but also it is hard to play him then out of position so i favour to take a small guy where the training later on makes fun because of fast ups.

To make a well rounded SF, it makes sense to train a player as a big for a few seasons, then as a guard for a few seasons. I think this is what you are doing with Tellez, right? If so, it would be a great idea to find a second guy that fits the same general training plan.

Later on, the most difficult guard skills to raise will probably be OD, JR, and PS, so I would look for a young guy that is relatively high in those areas. His big man skills should also be decent already (especially ID). That's what I would look for at least :)
