IFFFFFFFFFFF these fictional draft pools are truly sucky sucklings of the suck duck, then they should not be reaching the big leagues and the players that were created when the drafts were "good" would be sticking around longer and not losing their jobs to the "bad" players that were drafted.

I don't play fictional, so I have no leagues to look at from 13 that I can import (and why bother creating them when there are enough people that have such leagues that they can pull up in a flash).

Look at the number of rookies that debuted in your ML in the years prior to your first 14 draft.

Then look at the number of players that debuted in your first completed season of v 14. If these draftees were so awful, there will be fewer rookies in your first season after your first v14 draft than there was when using v 13.

You can go further and cross reference how many of your rookie debuts were drafted the previous year in v13 and compare that to version 14.

If these draftees truly suck compared to v 13 and are not simply the same caliber of players as before, but presented to the user differently, then all users of fictional leagues that have migrated to 14 will see a skew in these numbers from their historical norms.
