I think I won't spend money in scounting this season, because there is only 2 players with perinnial star potential and no one with a higher potential in my draft class...
Really disappointed...

That's a high potential 18 yo player. If he got 2 levels more IS you would have been extremely happy right? Or if SB was reversed with IS you would be happy as well.

I don't really get why you're whining. This is an awesome draftee, probably belongs to the top of all drafted players. If you train him a bit he will be worth a lot.

The problem is that there is in any case an high % to draft a terrible player even if you put money into scounting, that's why eventually you can think that spend 0 is the best policy...

and there is eventually the possibility to get rich through the draft, so that you could think that spending much money is a good policy.

if you repeat your draft ten times, the possibility to get rich is less than the possibility to loose a lot of money, that's because there are too many dependent variables in the draft pick, IMHO

i could say that this year could be the first one, where i don't masde money with it - and normally i got an medium Pick(6-8 position) in a very active league. So the circumstances are really not that bad for the draft, especially with the high prices this and last season.

Ok i don't spend much, but 10k for scouting is normally not a loosing sitution, with less active opponent and/or luck you also could get the money for 6-7 draft in one season.

So why i can noit argue with the best case, if you argue with the worst case, and that a draft isn't a calculated buissness you also see in the NBA.

Of course it depends on your position, and 10k are a good compromise, and of course draft isn't a calculated business, but actually there is too "fortune" factor in draft.
Even if I spend 10k or more every week, I really don't know what kind of player my scouts are going to scrutinize (that's the main dependent variable I think), I also really can't understand why I can't know age or height of every single players...

everybody knows that current draft is mostly boredom and luck - you just assign some weekly money and then hope that your 5 star pick is a good player and not a useless one ('cause frankly i have seen both kind of 5 star picks )
the most strategic move i could do all these seasons was to move up on the list players with low rating but high potential (when i was lucky to scout them twice, of course) 'cause high potential youngsters tend to sell better regardless of skills.
everything else is just luck... i would like also to propose and not only to criticize, i'll think about it :)
