It's the road to that I'm questioning.
It is a matter of perspective I guess. I use feeders so I have anywhere from 3-8 years of HS and/COL stats to look at with prospects and can feel pretty good about players I'm taking up through the 4th or 5th round (not that they all develop).

In reading about the RL draft and seeing all the diversity of projected picks and who gets picked in the first round I'm not sure OOTP14 isn't more realistic than OOTP13. That said if people are used to how things were in v13 and before then I can see how it now looks like it is in v14 would be disconcerting.
