If people want to claim everything will work out fine, then ok. That's the most important part. But, it seems strange to design it in where there are no 4* and 5* prospects on purpose and then hemming and hawing about the ratings will go up and some will go down. But, if other people are seeing more talent in their drafts, it must be more of a "me" and my sim problem than a general one in the game.
I know 2026 can seem like a long time out, but it isn't really long enough for things to "stabilize". It's been awhile since I've started a new game too, but I do seem to recall it taking a bit for things to iron out before they normalize.

I happen to have the game up right now, so I took a quick look. My current draft pool is for 34 teams and has 1224 total players, of which 1 is 5 star and then under that there are 5 3-1/2 star, the rest being 3 or under. This might be a slightly weak year. Looking ahead down the road at players entering for future drafts, next year doesn't have a 5 star, but two years down the road does. Next year looks to be one of those weak overall draft classes though (I haven't been keeping track of the pattern that closely, and tbh as this was an expansion year my attention has been more focused on the fact that both of the expansion teams have somehow managed to contend for division titles with the expansion draft going really well for them). Those draft classes can still change a bit too.
