What do you think of the AI's ability to perform an inaugural "fantasy" draft? I used real rosters, capped salary at $115M and moved scouting to 100% accurate (I knew who I was interested in; I did this hoping it would take the randomness out of AI player evaluation and give all teams equal quality of drafting).

I found the AI did a good job in the first few rounds but then seemed to ignore prospects all together. In fact, it is pretty easy for a human to come out w/ mid-level ML quality, but an amazing bullpen, and a farm system that is absolutely stacked (like, 20 of the top 100 prospects).

Just wanted to see what others think or have experienced.
