Maybe there is a chance for a pth in the middle.

If we raise the skills of around 15 or 20 players out of these 96, two things would happen: less successful teams have a big chance to grab an exceptional good player out of the draft. More successful teams still have a chance to grab such a player, if he was not picked by the other teams.

This should make the draft a little bit more worth for those more successful teams, and it would help the less successful teams if they grab these future super stars. But, the overall speed of team development would not change so much.

BOOM! Love the idea!

Sounds like yet another one sided move making team building easier to me. I'm not particularly against this change but I think you should also implement another change (making it harder) to balance things out.

I do not see how I would need to balance this out. The overall quality of a draft class would kind of be equal to what we have today.

Imo if you raise the skills of 15-20 players then the overall quality of the draft has been improved, however slightly, it's yet another move in the same direction.

From my personal point of view, that would change nothing, since I didn't ever consider skill in my personal draft order. STR/SPE/TW/INT/Age/EXP/Special Traits are a lot more important to me.

Is there a way to limit those super guys from the drafts of all those leagues wiith tons of bots to hit the FA market?

If not, most of those super guys will end up in the YA of the same teams who check the FA Market every day and who have a lot of money due to the additional playoff income - like my team.

I don't think, that is the intention of this suggestion which is very mean
