I had a TERRIBLE time recruiting last season, so I thought I'd see if I can get some feedback on player selection this time around. I'm running FB/FCP. I need at least one guard but could otherwise take the four best available. I don't want post the "high-high's" so just go from the red and blue. Which four would you pick?



From top to bottom, I'm leaning toward the odds: #1, 3, 5, and 7. I feel bad letting go of #2 (low DE), #4 (low WE), and #6 (fewer blues), though, and I've been mediocre at recruiting players to begin with! Who are your picks? Thanks for throwing in your two cents and doing my job for me. ;-)

Curse the "analysis paralysis" of the recruiting game.

click picture to view... not sure how I posted it last time.

Not sure what you actually need as far as position wise so i'll rank all of them below for each position..

Guards:
3, 4 , 1,  2

SF  ranks:
4, 3, 5, 7, 6, 1, 2

PF/C ranks:
5, 6, 7

Without knowing the highs.. Player 3 should max out around 64/58 on ath/spd, 61 def, 63bh, 64 passing which for DIII is what you're really looking for in a guard.. and with it being fb/fcp u want good BH/P and his 89 stamina means he wont get tired as easily and should be able to play quite a bitthat being said, blow your wad of cash and lock that cat up as he's head and shoulders above the other 3 players for guards.

Here's my thoughts on player 2 and the reason why i'd never recruit him.... he has 9 ath and thats just beyond terrible.


That being said..

I'd recruit
Guard - player 3
SF - player 4
PF - player 5
C - Player 6

I agree with pureh

Thanks... Does a high SPD (60) on player 2 not make up for the 9 in ATH at all in the sim engine. I've generally been looking at ATH/SPD as a combined average. Still, I recognize #2 is not the best option.

Any other opinions?

Also: who would be the better player at their position in the long run, #4 or #7?

#1 is more or less useless, he won't be able to do anything well
#2 is kinda neat, I would never start him with that defense and ath but he could totally be a PG/Scorer of the bench, 70 SPD, 80 BH, 30+LP, 85 PASS, he's intrigueing, he's a foul waiting to happen but should score and help others score
#3 is a solid player, ideally he would have a little higher speed but  the 60+ ATH and DEF will certainly help.  He is offensively limited.   I think he is best suited for the 2 but could play the #3, rebounding be damned!

the bottom one with the potentials for me. Won't help much this year, but might end up being the best of the bunch by the time it's over
