I agree. I have a guy right now with lower potent playing well. I have gotten better result with shaping these bad players than I have with shaping the good. I think its a smart way to create a solid bench with lower potents.. Atleast they play well given the talent.. The good ones are just a dam liability for long time for me anyway. It just upsets me so much when they not scoring nothing and your pouring cash in to these players. only draft player I have ever kept was steve warden.

The lower potent is just getting the job done in some cases. I think if a manager is near my level of play or class division of 4-5 then they should try to get the best they can. But I don't thinking taking bad potent player Is a sin. You can always shape him to solid or good bench player for cheap like you said, in which I agree 100%

I could agree with getting them on the transfer market due to the obvious cost differences, but if you are choosing between a 5/4 and a 5/3 player that both fit what you're looking for there's still no reason not to go with the higher potential. If you don't want to train him past an all-star or so level that is still an option. Unfortunately, if you get the 5/3 player and decide in a couple seasons to change your mind it's too late at that point. Unrealized potential won't make him less valuable as a bench player once he is done training.
