Questionable drafting by the computer in myleague?

B) Mock drafts are too accurate Mocks draft are almost too good now (meaning they rank the players in terms of ratings and potential pretty much perfectly - this is where the busts & sleepers should be reflected - have a 69 rated player projected to be picked #4 once in a while and a 74 projected to be picked 25th - don't get crazy but have one or two per draft) C) Users should not have perfect information 3) User should not have PERFECT information. Depending on scout ability, there should be a variance in the attributes (actually we should just be able to see the grades, and there should be variance there - like a B, should show up as B+, B or B- for a good scout and a C+, B-, B, B+, A- for a bad scout. If done with the attributes, it should be done with the same mentality of having errors int the rating. Not sure how hard this is to draft. Also, accuracy should improve the ore you scout a player. I'd make it take much more visits to scout someone - so you actually do have to make choices. Have it so that scouting someone to 60% is very easy, like 1 visit, but scouting someone to 95% takes 6-7 visits. You want to feel very confident about certains players at the expense of knowing more about others.. Looking fwd to the patch. Any ETA on this?

I do agree with B a lot. I was doing a test sim and when I got to the draft I wasn't even trying was just trying to see what kind of rankings you saw in the draft to see what I should have the draft quality at and I noticed even with just picking the players with where the are on the mock draft and not really looking at any thing eles that I was getting a good amount of picks.

I heard last year that like 20 of the 30 second round picks never even got to play a game in the NBA last year. Even in the late first round I didn't see many guys above like 65-69.

It is a HUGE issue...Where did Wiggins and Parker go last year 1 & 2. In every mock draft/big board where were they ranked 1 & 2. One of the issues is that you have top 5 projected picks falling into the second round. That has never happened to my knowledge in real life.

The patch that was released today for PC and is pending for release on PS4 & X1 includes the tuning for the draft and who gets picked where. I'm not expecting it to be perfect, but I'm hoping that it's much improved. Let me know what you see when you get a chance.

I am not sure about the draft board but that could just be the way the game simulates draft bust. I do know in the NFL back when Arron rogers was drafted people thought he was going to be a top 10 pick and he ended up sliding down to like 23 or something.

You can't compare two completely different sports. If you look at the NBA you can't win it all if you don't have at least 2 superstar nowadays. So there shouldn't be guys that are top 5 picks falling to the end of the first or the beginning of the second.

Oh I don't know about not being able to win inless you have at least 2 superstars has there are only like 4 superstars in the whole league to me and spurs won this last year with out any superstar.

OK fine if you want to technical then change it to just 2 stars.
