but you would also get less maximum "peak period" out of him since once he is done, he will be older than alot of other "completed/capped" trainees and you couldnt get as many years in term of performance. if your looking to sell him off for profit as well.

It also doesn't help when none of the active managers can draft a good player at all. For 3-4 seasons now.

That is why I haven't spent a cent on the draft in about 3-4 seasons. Not when you can purchase the exact player you are looking for on the market for around the same price as top scouting costs for a season... But we do seem to fall short on what get drafted by some other countries.

He still has 2 seasons of his peak period left and he is pretty much done with secondary training. By the time he is 22-23 he will be a gun, but for now he is way behind the 8 ball. It is actually better than training secondaries to create a multi skilled U/21 player minus the fact they struggle to be compeditive for the first few seasons.

peak period = at his best. doesnt require anymore training to dominate. I dont know... I thought you said he will start training his primaries at 22? that would be bad since he is a real trainee who couldnt contribute so he doesnt really help the team.

I never said anything remotely close to that. I bought an 18 yo tall with guard skills so I could focus on primaries and have very little to do with secondaries. His primaries are about 1.5 seasons behind a normal trainee because of the low level of his starting primary skills. However should someone try to copy him when he is finished, they will lose just as much time trying to catch up to his secondaries...

Sure his peak will come a season or 2 later, but the 7-8 seasons after he reaches it will be better than a mono skilled player of a similar level.

Even though the draft can suck I still invest in it, you just never know when the draft class will be amazing.

But we really do need some bigs drafted, and soon.

by Mono-skilled I dont mean mono-skill, I mean train up your primaries b4 secondaries since primaries is "primaries" after all. Dont worry I know huzzard's skills, i think he was a 6'9 SG so he must have good secondaries ;)

Thats what I have been doing... And I wasn't even talking about huzzard. My other trainee is going to be a lot better than him.

I have been doing the same thing...My guy is a season and half behind where my former u21 centre is his big primaries.

My big annoyance is that my 18yo big that I picked up in the draft, with his near $7k salary and all resp primaries has "starter" potential. SO ANNOYED!

people always complaint about that... or 6k in salary and superstar but too bad he was a 19 years old... or omg all time great and only 1k salary... but hey 7k starter could develop into a solid starter for your team.
