I have (8) first round picks coming up picks 19,25,43,46,48,56,61,63. and $15mil in prospect money what would be a good approach on a strategy, balanced, conservative, aggressive etc., i am a newbie so any advice would be appreciated. I suppose it will take 5-6 seasons to bring them up to ml status if at all.
Holy Crap! 8?
I'm not doing the math on this but I'd suggest going back and seeing how much 8 slot picks in those spots adds up to. That will give you an idea if you want to go conservative or very conservative.
Just doing some quick math in my head, I'd say go very conservative for your first round picks. Then you can go balanced afterwords for rounds 2-5.
Good luck. 8 first and supplemental picks. Sounds like a fun draft.
A few things it took me forever to learn. Aka - good advice.
1) Make your supplemental round very conservative. If they don't sign, you don't get compensation.
2) Don't use the formula builder. Look at the thread we posted on that. Rank the guys you want
3) Don't use the ratings threshold. It'll cost you good players in exchange for trash. (set to 'none)
4) Probably a good idea to set 'Any' under position settings to between 3 and 5. Ensures you get the best guys in the first few rounds. Set all 'player types to 'none' and set the 'weight' to 0. This way it gives you the best change of picking the guys you rank.
