Due to 2 games where I unexpectingly lead by more than 20 pts, my subsitution scheme was a mess and my planned trainees only got 48, 43 and 42 mins at the PG position where I expected to train them for Passing.

Do you think it's still worthile to choose 1 position training?
Switching to 2 positions training will give 48+ mins for 4 players including one which is almost useless as he won't pop up this week, and I don't expect to train him anymore this year.

So would you rather choose,Passing 1 for 48, 43, 42 or, Pasing 12 for 48,48,48?

The first choice seems better to me but I have absolutly no idea of the percentage loss incured for 43 or 42 mins rather than 48.

Thanks

In my experience, I have 2 main trainees and another young guy I drafted who gets the remainder of the minutes. The 3rd guy typically gets 35-40 minutes per week, and it has a significant effect. I've only been training him for last season and this one, but he has received only about 60% of the pops my other 2 guys have piled up.

So I think i would go with the switch to 2 position, get them the training which I think will be roughly the same at worst, and also get that 4th guy a bump in a sublevel while you're at it.

thank you all for your input.

Most week I usually manage to get 48,48,45 for 1 position.

I finally choose 1 position training. As the fourth guy poped up recently and I don't expect to train it anymore as he is 25. So I feared it would be a complete loss, I can't know for sure of course as he could as improved a secondary but it seemed unlikely looking over past weeks training.

Actually it turned pretty well, as the recent recruit and another player poped up. It's always a challenge to train new recruit as you don't know how close to the next pop they're. Especially if they are around 23-24 where a single pop could takes many weeks. Last year I had a new recruit and thought he was a little expensive, but he poped up in six different stats after one week of training in each :))

Knowing that my new recruit poped up, I now have a clearer traning schedule for the comming weeks.

I use a very successful 2 pos training model. Here it is:

League Games
2 starter PG, SG, Backup sg and back PG, backups are also the 3rd string

Scrimmage:
Back up PG and SG(from above) are listed as the Starting PG and Back up PG
SG is a another trainee and is listed in all SG roster spots

Using this system, I am able to get the 5 players 48 minutes almost every week. This works if you are having blowouts almost every league game.
