    You cannot make these decisions on one year. Cannot.

    Especially with QBs who have so many bars and are purposefully more difficult to draft than any other position in the game. For this one position there is less studs available. Jim made it that way.

    Players frequently bomb or near bomb in their 1st season to rebound in the 2nd and/or 3rd. The same is true of players who pop in the 1st season. You must take a longer look at players before judging them.

      NEVER! I'll die before I stop over analyzing everything!

        Rememeber that the correlation between bars and combines are set at 50%. So.... I am 100% agree that we must use our interviews wisely to confirm our suspections and draft with some kind of truth behind our decision

          Realistically... we have 12. And that's not assuming it'll come back HTR, or just be wrong entirely.

          I over analyse, because, it actually matters.

            There should be a lot less trying to see through the fog and let the game do the work. Use your interviews wisely and trust your scouts, especially in the positions they are good at scouting. From what I've seen so far, that looks like the best route. My guess is that every trick you guys tried to use to "game the game" in the earlier versions, the developer tried his damnedest to slip you up.
            I'm with you on this one. The less I have to think, the better.

                I've noticed that in your drafting tendencies.

                    Garion! I love you, you remind me of a young bomber. We used to have a great rivalry going... Now it seems he only wants to fleece me in trades.

                      I was really iffy on him to be honest. I can see him going either way.

                      I am not really sure. I still feel like there is enough there to analyze and make good picks even without interviews. I hear Malcpow is doing it and I have talked to at least one other who seems to be catching on.

                      My preliminary feeling is there is more of a fog but there are tells if you know what to look for. I am still new to this, though.
