There was a recent thread, I'll post a link later, on this and I was shocked at how much stock people put into personality over obvious talent. As a part of a comprehensive evaluation of similar players I get that personality can be and may be a deciding factor.

In OOTP and IRL fully developed ability will perform despite personality flaws. I tend to favor personality more in my second tier players while obviously not turning down any player who has ability and good intangibles.
