pstrickert - I didn't do anything particularly fancy: random debut for a league starting in 1947, all players from between 1901 and 2001.

The pre-existing draft value for AI was off.

WAIT - I only now realized writing this, that I set the values to 20% ratings, 60% current year stats, then 15 and 5 as is the default.

I wonder if that devaluation of ratings in favor of stats might account for why the AI didn't draft such great players (other greats like Mathewson were drafted to be sure)?

I use real stats, 5-year and potential based on remaining peak seasons.

so maybe it is that combination that led to my drafting "luck".

I will try one without tampering with the30% default setting for ratings, see if that changes anything.
