Once I finished that process I began scouting the players who had good production at the college level. I view the players with low production but good size to be projects.

The attributes I scout are physical (spd, acc, agi, str), mental (awr, prec), and skill (cth, cit, spec, mancvg, zone, tackling, etc).

Then I'll repeat that with the players with lesser production.

Now at this point I don't have number grades but I do have good estimates on the letter grades. Based off the results I will then start scouting positions of need out of the players that had good enough letter grades.

Once that is complete I know mainly what my draft board will look like before the off season.

Any extra points will be used for players that weren't necessarily areas of need but intrigued me.

Im thinking as house rule that I'll never unlock overall just so i can make it less transparent.

So how's my strategy sound?
That's pretty close to what I do.
