2. He drafted a player for an unimportant position (e.g. OL) UNIMPORTANT???? You will get no yards whitout an Oline not here not in RL... I think it is not so important to draft a OL. It is easier to develop a OL than a DL or LB with the guys you got at the beginning. The last OL from the draft have a huge lack in footwork. The OL in the next draft might be better and I will change my mind. And you said, you need 5 OL-players. You are right, so having one outstanding is worthless, when the other 4 guys are crappy. |

So you would never draft a OL, because one is useless when the other 4 are crappy. But you´ll have to start at somepoint, or you still try to develope all from your youth. I think OL is as important as DL and one draft DL doesn´t make your DL better either. I think if you have a OL/DL/LB or WR its hard to let them go, because you would always need a lot great players at these positions. |

I view OL as being extremely important. I've drafted 1 OL in each of the first 2 drafts and am trying to develop my line even further. Helps the running game and protecting the QB. The fact that you need 5+ good players at that position makes it seem even stranger that some don't value it at all

Agreed. I have drafted 3 in the 2 drafts we have had and the others I have on my team are pretty decent right now. I will be looking at drafting 1 more in our 4th draft. I'm aging at other positions right now and that needs upgrading atm. |

An Example how important a strong OL vs a weaker DL is:
It is from the second half of my last League game, my PC is not good enough at the moment. Nogard wrote:

I wrote my mind of doing exactly this by selling one of my two drafted QBs in an other thread: Nogard wrote:
I could tell you what I did and why. I sold one of my QB´s and invest the money in my stadium. Why I do that? Because I understood the draft system in a wrong way. I only would draft one QB not two. The drafted players are much better than the one you have in your starting team. But what should I do with two QB´s only one of the can play. Sure I can substitute if one is tired, but I thought this wasn´t efficient. That´s why I sold one of the two QB´s. If I didn´t pick them becase of my misunderstanding, I think I wouldn´t sell my drafties. Last edited on 2012-03-04 16:29:43 by Nogard |

I would not primary go for a OL in the draft. I got a OL in teh 3rd round of the first draft. I couldn't prevent this. At the start I put my strongest players at the OL, before I put the other strong to the DL. After this I developed the 5 guys equally and bought other cheap strong player at the TM. I think there are better ways to get good OL. |

On the test server I stil have a crappy OL and I'm there for 5 season?
I did not draft some very often and that shows. My own trained OLs are getting better but still lack the quality of a drafty. |
