Sounds like your draft is better than the Elite draft lol. There are zero decent offensive skill position players. It is just Oline, D line, and LB. lol.


That's exactly the philosophy of the draft, isn't it?

To balance the competition, the best team in a league is going to have worse players available when it's their turn to pick. So, it seems logical that the best league should also have worse players available in the draft

The leagues with more bots should have weaker drafts, there's a reason that high bot leagues do better in Elite.

That's exactly why all of the teams that have a good season in Elite struggle to keep doing well also.


All these human managers in Elite make it almost impossible to get past the third round of SC.


Imagine trying to be the Malones. We've had only like four bots drafting in the past nine seasons combined and I have to try to compete against the loaded Dragons squads!

Just a few hours until the draft and a lot of expectations for it. All things here are set. I usually post my favourite guys on the board (that the community usually disagree...). This time I will try something a little bit different: let's talk about the worst players on the board?


10. K Severi Paukkunen

In a class with K and P with Strong Leg it would be impossible to have a player among the worst, right? But if you lack strength, your teamwork is low, and your intelligence is not that high, it turns really difficult to pick such a guy even if he is experienced for his age.

9. OL Joel Keinänen

The Finnish class of footballers is terrible this time. He clearly lacks strength and speed. His experience and intelligence are also quite low. The only things to help him not being even worse are the high teamwork and the pass blocker trait.

8. OL Carles Fagbure

Oh lord this class of OLs is killing me! Carles is pretty similar to Joel. But he is older and have lower teamwork. At least he is a stone wall. No more than this.

7. OL Hatari Bamgboshe

Come on, I am starting to think it is something personal against OLs. At first sight Bamgboshe may seem draftable because of his strength. But if you analyze his potential... He is 22 yo and has a low teamwork. How far a player like him can get?

6. QB Suphayok Vongchiengkham

Talking about how far a player can go... Suph is one of the players of this class with lower teamwork. He lacks strength and speed but his very agile. Being a 20 yo with lots of experience and smart enough to play football helps him not making the number 1 on this ranking.

5. OL Rakishi Shan

Back to the OL curse of this class... Shan is one of the lowest rated players (on my methodology). His starting physicals are as low as his skills. At least he is fairly experienced for his age and has a good teamwork.

4. RB Edgar Kainga

I was already missing RBs on this list as I hate to pick them on the draft. Kainga has an almost reasonable speed but we need to pray it is not capped. He lacks strength but his agility is ok. But what a 21 yo with quite low experience and awful teamwork can add to a roster?

3. WR Salim Sulayman

I almost have put him on the top (or bottom?) of this ranking. He is 22 yo with low experience and the worst teamwork around here. But his starting physicals and sticky fingers made me trust on him for a moment. Just for a moment...

2. SF Elliot Hoilett

Is this guy really trying to be a "professional" SF on RZA? Low intelligence, very poor teamwork, and awful physicals. All that on a 22 yo player. His sure tackler trait eventually keeps him away from number 1...

1. OL Andrey Gwako

As expected, the worst player (imho) is an OL! Based on what? Well, based on my methodology. He lacks the potential to be a valuable player on the future and might need a lot of work before turning into a possible rotational squad player.

I think it is easier to get decent to good o lineman in the youth academy than the draft, it is rare to find someone with good intelligence and teamwork listed as an offensive lineman, those are usually dlineman or linebackers.

2022-12-14 03:01:00 - Player Sigitas Jurkenas drafted on pick #28 using your draftorder #2

My favourite player went as number 1 overall. At least I have filled a gap in my roster considering that I will undergo a rebuilding soon.

Had him #1 by far too, my #3 is still on the board, I think in hindsight the guy I had #2 shouldn't have been #2 especially since he's softcapped already on speed @36.3.
