Drafting is hard!

I haven't gotten a single clear starting player yet.

This season, I switched to taking mainly high upside high schoolers, so we'll see how that goes.

One update...I found out that the 2nd round pick from the first draft I did this evaluation is a star player for another team. I traded him back in the day for my now starting CF. He was nothing special, but of course blew up for another team.
