I have the #1 pick in the most loaded draft I've ever seen. I'm having a tough time deciding between the Top 3 SP prospects. This is my first year in this league & I'm doing a tear it down to the Studs rebuild. Its pretty much a 3 way tie for me, but I have a slight favorite but Im not sure who the right guy is. I really appreciate any & all opinions & advice . I will only list most important info: They will all sign. I have $15 each ih H.S. & College Scouting:

I know vR is the most important skill, but I value Make Up very high because it progresses players as high as possible & keeps them there the longest. I always value age, even more so since I'm literally in year 1 of this rebuild. So I get that #1 seems like the obvious choice because of his super elite vR, feel #2"s Elite Make Up & 3 years lower age Make it almost a tie. And since Ive always been told& agree that Lefties get a "Lefty Bump" & cause hes also 18 I threw him in the mix but I know his splits and lower Make up will always prevent him from being the choice. So it really comes down to 1 v 2. And obviously #2's ridiculously low 8 4th pitch is scary, I'm confident he'll drop it. So I only got 1 response here but someone also Site mailed me & said it was #1 by a mile. Even though I disagree & think its much closer, because vR is so Vital, 94 v 81 is just to big of a gap to close, eventhough, IMHO, 3 years of youth & 28 points of Make up come close to closing it, I think Im ultimately gonna agree with you guys & go #1. That 94 vR with those Pitches is too dominant of a force to resist...

I went with #1 & am happy with my choice. Again this was am AMAZING DEP draft but I'm still flabbergasted that SP #2 fell all the way to #9 & SP #3 fell all the way to #16!!!! An 18 year old P that I didn't see went #2, cementing to me that I made the right decision
