I do see your point in lowest leagues of a country to some degree, but those leagues are filled with bots racking up the high picks anyways, so after all there´s a solid risk of straightout losing your money after you bough the 13th pick because some of the bots before you might accidentally grab one of the three useful players in the draft nowadays.


especially bot leagues, will give you a very high reward for your draft pick for a low price. Yes it might be that so bot pick the potential best pick before, but the chanche is much higher that human do this while you still could get quite good second round picks there. And the good thing is, there are quite few teams to regulate the market, and target a fair price for the pick.(or with your fixed prices, because a bot league 13 pick could be worth like a normal league 2 or 3)

The low pick is not only good for the buyer, it would be equally good for the seller, so he´d probably think twice before selling it for a mere 250 k.

I never said anything about selling it to anyone in the game. Also since draft picks (unlike players) are easy to tell in value, even with bidding you could just set a maximum bid for each pick.

That´s the very reason trading PICKs instead of Players is interesting. Because it has a gambling part.

But 1st pick isn't enough. You must still pay for skauting too to find the best player. 14x40k = 560k. And if added we have over 1,5M. It's completly unprofitable if we compared to current prices on TL. I have no player in squad who is worth more than 1M.
And please note that top leagues (1st or 2nd in country) it's only few percent of all leagues in this game. 1,5M for 4th division club is big money, I think it's enough cash to buy 3 players to first squad.
Picks under 16 are worthless because you have allways better pick for free.
I think we don't need other game inside this game. Current system is good.

The idea behind trading for draft picks is that if you invest for scouting anyways, getting another pick might increase your return-of-invest value. If you find a great guy and you´re keen on getting him, paying another bunch of dollers to get him is probably more saistying than watching him go to an opponent.

No, because pool will be always the same. If one team get better player then other team get worse. So sum of all return-of-invest is always equal zero. So it's only other way to cheat.
Please note than You can buy scouting poinst but you don't have to use them in the same season in which they are bought. If you have one of last picks in draft you can save your point for future. And spend them when you'll have early picks.
