These drafts are killing me. It is really hard to build a team with these drafts.
The 8th ranked player in the draft. WR Ray Norman has B catching, C+ jumping and hands, and C break tackle. Sure he has A+ speed and A agility but for him to be ranked 8th says a lot about the other players in the draft. Norman is 3rd or 4th rounder most likely, late 2nd at best.

9th ranked, RB Doug Walter with C+ agility. Not a top 10 player.

G Wilbur Tyrrell ranked in top 5. Has B+ strength. I never keep O lineman with B+ strength and he is in the top 5.

LB Brian Larson ranked top 10. Don't think he would make most rosters. 4th rounder at best.

Through the history of sports as years go by athletes have only gotten better, faster, stronger, and smarter. Maybe this league being the year 2155 is saying that humans will get weaker, slower, and dumber. Leading the league to invent high octane, hard hitting, AI infused robotic football.

Re: Draft
Most RB have low carry and low agility or both.
Most WR have low catch, low agility, low jumping, low speed or a mix.
Most O-line have low blocking or low strength or both.
It goes on and on.
The players coming into the future drafts need to be reset or whatever is done to get the drafts looking like they should.

Re: Draft
I'll check it out. To some extent, weak drafts are actually good long term (mathematically at least), but this league has changed size a couple of times so I need to make sure the issue is not size related. There is code to change the talent pool to match the league size, but after a contraction my expectation would be that talent would increase, not decrease.

Re: Draft
We are definitely looking at a code bug. Working on it.

Re: Draft
So this appears to be a bug that has existed probably forever but was never triggered because of ANOTHER bug. At some point I fixed the other bug, which allowed this bug to run rampant.
Fixing it now. It may occur in more places than just the improves.

Re: Draft
I also need to create some sort of spreadsheet/report for this and other issues. The process was working just enough that spot checking players made it look like things were going fine, but an overall improvement report league wide would have shown the failure. Working on that too.

Re: Draft
OK, I may have this fixed. Players that have had no improvements have some now.

Re: Draft
I just gave all college players approximately the number of improvement chances they should have had so hopefully that will help the next few drafts.
