Projected draft round

frangipard · 02-07-2015, 06:40 PM

It would be great if the draft pool included our scout's projection of where a player would be likely be taken if we don't draft him. There's a big difference between a player with 60 potential that everyone knows about and will be taken in the second round, and a 60 potential sleeper that my scout found and who might slip into the fifth.

I've kind of jerry-rigged this by comparing my scout's ranking vs. the generic scouting service, but it's kind of laborious process to toggle back and forth between the two. It's be nice if there was a column in the draft pool ratings that marked 30 guys as "likely 1st round," another 30 as "likely 2nd round," and so on, for the top 150 or so prospects as ranked by the free service.

Needless to say; this should not be perfectly accurate ... there should be times where waiting to take a guy you thought only you knew about should bite you in the butt. But it seems to me this could really add an element of fun strategy to the drafts.
