This isn't a great solution. If you add people to your board in week 1 and they're not interested, then you can't gain points on them. It doesn't matter if you spend 700 points or 0 points, you'll be trailing by the same amount in week 2. It's only after you're in his top 10 that your weekly points have affect.

The better solution is to add 20 guys you don't care about in the preseason, manually scout them all to use up your points, then remove them and add the guys you want.

If you're not using up all of your points, add some crappy 1* guys and max out their points, but don't offer them a scholly.
