Hey Guys,

I'm new to the game and about to enter my 2nd season, but first full season.

Looking forward to the draft and have high hopes.

When is the draft and does each team get 2 players?

Thanks!

Hey MrJ,

Thanks heaps for the info!

I am really enjoying the game. I found the draft selection process pretty good. I've got 2 x 5/5 players at the top of my queue!

What do you find is more valuable amongst rookies - the first 5 star or the 2nd 5 star for potential?

For a new team would you recommend focusing your training on only players with higher potential?

Thanks, Corza!

Well, I’m hoping to get one of my top 3 but picking mid draft so might miss out on all the good ones. Unlike previous years I am actually targeting 19yos as the increase to TSP can give you a head start on training if you get lucky.

The 5/5 players could be an MVP, HOF or ATG doesn't matter where they are ordered. The skills and potential of the players are set when draft order is made. Its just a matter of what information you can uncover about the draftees.

You probably don't need MVP + potential when you start because its hard to train to full potential because you can't afford the wages in lower divisions. Can also be expensive to buy trainees with high potential. Superstar is quite a good level. In saying that you might keep an MVP draftee but sell a HOF or ATG to a team looking to train a NT player.

Ahh i wasn't sure what he meant with first 5 star and second 5 star.
