what you need to do is sell Cole Dunlap asap, as he is the kind of trainiee that is worth a heap of cash now, but each week he will be going down - SEll Sell Sell!!!


Or Train Train Train!!

That guy could be the cornerstone for his team for the next 13-18 seasons.

Can you BB-mail me his stats? I might make an offer!

Advanced is certainly better but it's really the bare minimum. His value *shouldnt* plummet if you concentrate on 1-pos training him.

True, but given the fact that All-Time greats are almost never seen and have basically unlimited training cap space, they are worth their weight in gold, i am not sure if a new manager in div5 is going to get the most out of him, and that has nothing to do with the managers skill. It is more that given his low div, he can't really afford a top rate trainer that would justify this kind of player.

As a supported of the USA NT team, I would hate to see this kind of player end up as a 26yo 115K player (that could have been achieved with a superstar/MVP player), when he has the potential to become a 200K beast for the NT team


You are a definitely correct about a new manager needing guidance in this situation....but if he doesn't want to sell this would be an excellent opportunity for someone from the NT community to mentor him. He should receive mentoring on how to properly train this guy, and the kind of mentoring that will help him accelerate in the ranks/divisions so that he can promote in conjunction with the players development.

If done right, he would be an excellent candidate for what I call the "Play now, pay later" plan. He will be paying the weekly salary for a player that is based on the start of the seasons ratings, all the while receiving training pops and improvement from the player. I have always made trainees part of my core plan...and its great when you have a player that you pay $40K a week, playing like he's worth $75k a week...that is a huge advantage competitively in league play.

You tell him, Jason! Lol just kidding. But yeah, I'm leaning towards keeping him, considering that I have a rare opportunity on my hands (supposedly anyways). Where can I go for this mentoring?


Go to the USA Offsite...or find some of the Coaches that you see are successful and ask if they'd be willing to mentor you. If you don't find anyone, send me a note, I'll be glad to mentor you.

For sure bro. You can always BB-Mail me if you have any questions, or better yet... make a diary for your team on the US offsite so I, along with other experienced managers can advise you.
