Yeah, but if the player's initial skills are too low you won't fulfill his high potential because you'll spend his early youth fixing the skills and when he turns into a decent trainable player he'll be too old. Truth is that only around 1% of drafted players have a proper combination of high potential and skills, 10% have high potential and not so good skills or vice versa while the rest are pure garbage. I hope this will change considerably this draft.
I doubt your assumption of 1%. I have trained all different kinds of potential and I always ran out of it, especially when you are starting to jack up the primaries, potential goes to waste like you would not expect.
