If you have any hard cutoff of what WE you will EVER take then you're making a mistake IMO.
In theory, I agree with that. But I spent a few recruiting seasons in D2 (as an A+ team) looking for exactly the kind of guys we're talking about: <10 WE, incredible cores already. And (a) there were very few of them who were really fine to play as-is, and (b) D1 teams went after them too. I don't think there's a market inefficiency there.
So yeah, I agree you shouldn't go into recruiting with an arbitrary cut-off, but I think people are disappointed when they expect a treasure trove of low-WE gems.
