I wouldn't put very much money into scouting.

Each team is given information about different players, so even if you have the 16th pick, you might get your top choice, because most other teams won't know that he was any good. You also don't get very much information. I started towards the end of last season, so had only a minimal investment, but got two players who started for me. Also, since everyone drafts at the same time (it was only one week ago), there are likely to be a lot of players available on the TL soon afterwards.

yeah oki, thx

so I am new, i should wait a while before I put money in scouting?


I am new too. To add on to his question, if we should start scouting now, how many players per week should we scout? Thanks.

the rules make a good point of telling you that if you are dropping to the bottom of your league, then it is more worthwhile to spend money on scouting as you will have better players to select. just something to think about....

I don't get it - after I activate scouting where do I see the players that got scouted... or am I suppose to wait until two weeks before the draft?

"The way the draft works is as follows: Right after the season ends 48 new players are generated for the draft."

so the new players are shown right after the end of the season. you have until 2 days after the finals of your series playoffs to select your draft order. and then the draft occurs (the finals for season 2 were Oct 20 and the draft occured Oct 22 in my series)

BB will make an announcement in the NEWS section as to when the draft will occur. as of right now, no, you cannot the players in the next draft

oh yes, you should invest some money in the draft. but as has been pointed out there is a balance between players salaries, staff wages, scouting, and other expenses versus what you take in each week.
