They generally turn up at least 2-3 players a year with 60+ OVR potential. The AI does not use international scouting as much, so this ends up being a huge advantage for me. I really love that part of the game, but I think I'm going to have to make a house rule. Nine of my top ten prospects have come from international scouting. Maybe I'll limit the number of scouts in my employ.

If you like the international apsects, I think you could try one other thing to keep from having to self impose a rule. Turn the player creation modifiers down in the international leagues. You have to remember that the sim generates players for drafts in all of those leagues as well as your main one. If the creation modifiers are set to be on par with your main league, what you get is serious international talent being generated with players who don't want to stay in their native leagues and/or can be easily bought out by your team. You've got to make sure that the best talent in your world is draft eligible. If you've got a significant block of your talent coming from overseas, this might do the trick.
