What positions are the easiest, best to train for profit?

I have two kickers (w/ Strong Leg) I got in the draft (round #3) and I'm wondering if it's worth the time to really train them to much. Seems like other positions are more profitable. Opinions?

From what I've seen, OL prices have a very high floor.

My general observation is that high strength / high teamwork is also more rare. But ya, if you've got someone who is a blank slate and fits this archetype, I'd train them as an OL. If they have that AND some moderate speed (above 40-42), train as a DL. I'd save K or P for a player who has high strength and lower teamwork scores (sub 35). Or if they already have those skills and are too old to retrain.

Yeah, O-Linemen seem to sell well. D-Linemen not nearly as well. I think because everybody needs 5 + 2/3 OL's whereas you need 3+2 DL's.

Ya, I think the ceiling is higher on a DL with the right specs though, that's really my only caveat. I always prioritize players with strength over speed in the YA, that's for sure.

I think you can get good DLs in the draft, often, while good OLs are rare.

Add the amount you need and you get the price difference.

Overall I think the jackpot would be QB and LB at top level, meaning high spe and str, high int, good exp already and good TW.
That would sell obviously like hell.

Also good to sell as veterans seems to be good trained TE.

Totally agree, I think that the better physical draft prospects are DL & LB, as someone pointed out Here draftees tend to have low AGI, it means that OL preparing fot the draft have low SPD & low AGI, while DL&LB have very high SPD.

TE's seems to sell well because not many people want to use a coach on a position as rarely used as the TE's

If you look the draft players list you should see that low agi is for offensive players

I think you mean the opposite, offensive players have the highest AGI among drafted players.
