A bunch of us from MG started playing HD a couple of months ago. One thing that I really, really like about their recruiting process is that it's done on a player by player basis. You have options on how to first get awareness of the prospects that are out there (camps, scouting services, etc). When you first see recruits, they are at "level 1" (very high level ratings). You can then pick and choose who you wish to further scout to get more detailed and accurate ratings on, up to "level 4". You only see current ratings, but ratings are color coded (at levels 3 and 4) to see which ones have the potential to increase (red = very low potential for growth, green = very high potential for growth, and three others in between).
Implementing something like this in HBD would be a *****, and would probably create more ******** and moaning that it's worth. But it would make draft scouting much more realistic and interesting, and rewarding to those who are willing to put in the time. You'd have to open up draft scouting right at the beginning of the season (after budgets are set) to make it work. Hell, it would even give you something to do during spring training.
