1981 Amateur Draft Discussion

I think you have to start taking gambles here soon.

I only have probably 15-20 players who are legit 30+ prospects still available.

[robster1225]

He was quite a gamble, did one of your scouts love him? All my scouts had him at 21-27.

2 of my scouts had him in the 70's, including my best scout. The rest had him between 25-35

[robster1225]

Where's that bum Andrew, it's his pick :)

[mahoney2]

He could be dead, either that or sleeping.

If he drank as much as I expect he did, he's probably asleep but not far from dead. :shock:

Probably just at the bar drinking off that hangover.

Probably just at the bar drinking off that hangover.

That's actually what I just did. Now back to the draft. There's no players left that 2 of my scouts both agree that they have over 30/80 potential.

That's surprising, I still have a number of players that more than one scout think highly of. I hope my scouts are right :)

[mahoney2]

Actually I take that back. I was using a spreadsheet I made with all the players and each scouts ratings. It was only my top 3 scouts. Not the other 2 clowns.

[mahoney2]

Well that was my first "screw the other scouts, just go with my headscout's best player" and he had him at a 68. It'd be a nice surprise if he was even half right, my other scouts all gave him 20's.

I did one of those on my last pick. That's going to be my philosophy the rest of the way.

[Dave]

That's really all you can do at this point due to the atrocious lack of depth in this draft pool. My head pitching scout thinks Valler has 67 potential, but the rest of my scouts think he's trash. As do all of you obviously, since he was still on the board. I don't like his lack of endurance and I don't like his work ethic, but almost 100 picks into a shallow draft, what the hell ever....

[Sully]

Put me on auto.

[Andrew]

Put me on auto.

You can do it yourself.

[Clay]

How does Auto work in the draft utility? How does it determine best available?
