You guys are spending too much time worrying about the star ratings. They are only meant to give you a "current snapshot" of the talent level and they change as time goes on. With the new variations included in V6 having to do with the larger variances of success/failure, you can't take too much from what you see at the time of the draft. It's much more of a crapshoot than before. Time in the minors will tell you what you got.

And as far as the fill or don't fill minors, the issue is if the minors are "full" the AI has to move someone around for each and every add or subtract that happens. That requires the AI to be a ton smarter to do that correctly. The concept of leaving spots open and treating these as the "scrubs" means the AI has room to move players around without having to do a "domino process".
