Ok similar question who do you rate better

Both players have 5 Star ratings and one is 18 with a 2 potential the other is 19 with a 3 potential.

i might get the two star rated player with 5 star potential than those guys.

more or less, it is all about matter of what you want... for me, star rating is more on getting short term players while potential stars are more on the long term, because the better potential, the better player to train...

that's why it's best to get players who are both high in rating and in potential.

heck, i might even get players with 3 star rate, with 3 potential than those blokes...

oh, and also, I only get 18 year olds...

From those two I would pick the older one. I think that 2 potential could be starter potential at best, not so good.

What is the potentials are 3 and 4 does your answer change?

Yes, with those two potentials I would probably take the younger one with 3 than 19yrs. old with 4. 3 potential can be all-star and that is not that bad. You will have few more drafts before reaching top divisions anyway till then such a palyer should be ok for you. On the other hand if you picks for market profit 4 potential is a great bump in market value.

I would look at the boxscore too to see how much they could fit your already existing/planned training regime too. It could reveal some weakness you wouldn't your player to have a bit.

Neither is that great 2 potential is pretty low and 19 year olds arn't ideal. I would actually put players with 5 Star rating with no other information ahead of both of those guys but thats just me.

i think this depends also on position, if you draft late, the concurrency would pick the good 5 Skilltrating guys already so that you could be happy about the 18 years instead of an 19year ol with low potential out of the lottery.

The grade is only a more detailed Skillrating, the letter is always related to the Skillrating( A means 5 Ball Skillrating, B four Ball SR, C = 3 ball SR etc.).

The "+" shows it is a good player for his skillrating, and close to the higher level. A "-" means, he just get it into this level but a player with a weaker Skilllevel isn't much weaker. Nothing means he is medium^^

i also have a 4 star palyer with no potential rating who scored 28 points in 24 mins play is he worth a punt at or should i stick to 5 star ratings???


boxscore is just one game, in germany we try to read something out of it in collecting some draft data but the informations you could get out it a pretty low. So i just would use it in comparision, to decide betwen players with similiar informations.

Do many people have drafts with not many guys of potential? Is this normal or just my league? No-one has 5 star potential and only two have 4 star potential (4 have 3 star). There looks like one real stud in my league and I have pick two! Fingers crossed for that one.

Third best is an A+ skills three star potential 19 year old. I assume he would be a great pick too.

So my choices after the first three are between 5 star scouted once guys and 3-4 star scouted twice guys with 2-3 star potential.

For example, what would you guys take 4th in the draft, a 5 star skills rest unknown, a 3 star C skills and 3 star potential 19 year old or 4 star B skills, 19 year old with 2 star potential? These are the sort of guys that will be 4-11 on my draft board.

For whoever is gathering information I scouted 19 people twice, 43 once and have spent $40,000 every week since I started.

Unfortunately that seems like a normal result from scouting. I also put $40,000 for pretty much the whole season. No one scouted had 5 potential either and. I got 4 players with 4 star potential but not in the positions i really wanted :(

Blue the A+ skills guy isn't that great because if u were getting a 19 year old u would want him to have quite high potential to make it worthwhile. So its really a matter if u want to take the safe pick or take a chance on a 5 star but unknown potential. He could be a 4 potential or a 1 potential u just don't know .
