Anyone dug up some nice draftees?

Also, is draft position on ladder placing or simply win loss?

Draft position is win-loss.

Every team should have an Eduardo.. it should be legislated.

Guess he's preparing his team for next season. No doubt he's saved a bundle this season and probably saw an offer he could not refuse!

In I don't know how many seasons now, I have never got a good player from the draft. It is rubbish. The day after draft day the first thing I usually do is sack 3 people posing as players they tried to add to my roster.

I think in the early years as our teams were all weaker a draftee (will perennial allstar potential) could come in and play straight away. Now that our teams are all better the draftees dont have the skills to make the team. To seriously train a draftee now you need to set a weaker roster where as early on it didn't affect the strength of your team so much.

Season 12
Peni Lucas (14843945)
Point Guard

Since then the well has been a bit dry as I have had late picks and the new system means the good players are much easier to identify. There have also been a couple of seasons in division II when there just wasn't much in the draft. So I do like the draft and it can be good. I am basically a PF short of having a team that could win some games in division II just with my draft picks.
