An even bigger question is: Why keep the dude on your team?

I know, I know. Sometimes you just can’t find a replacement that would be an improvement.

Guys are drafted all the time with future 100 ratings but the current is like 20. They are unplayable for a couple years unless you like 0-30 games. I just think the floor for current accuracy qbs should be much higher

Update on cam newton:
HE COMPLETED A PASS!!

Funny thing he also went from 130 qbr his rookie season to 1.71Qbr ...yep, the point is at the rigth place lol

On the brougth up subject, if a player gets drafted theres no way he can become something like this;

I mean... How can someone has ZERO in some ratings after having a career in college good enough to get his name called up :p

The 100 volatility fail mode poster child.

Live by the sword, die by the sword. :( Yeah, sometimes when we go for the home run picks they're instant cuts never to be seen nor heard from again.

Ill always draft like that.. But you understand the meaning? Like even if i never played football im sure i have better than zero in tackle skills

I understand completely. Yes!

I guess it is how you look at it. I used my 16 accuracy qb as an example in beta testing as this change seem strong. I feel th e game has Kurt Warners or arron rodgers now but we already know they will be real good.

To me it changes their drsft value unless you want to sit and groom them. Guys who actualize their ratings quicker are the ones who are nfl ready . Now I have dbs that come out of camp with 99 man or Dline with elite skill. This would raise the value of those guys some.

The thing is you won't know what rate of growth you ll get. Guys maxing out quickly in only a few skill ratings is kinda realistic too. As a safety might take a few years to become an elite tackler or cover guy.

Maybe coaches can have more of an effect now on development of players . Cutting growth in half if they are all higher rated accuracy or something .

I think one day we will have minimums, but now I would run the guys through a digital combine. Same as they move on the feild and set speed minimums for all positions based off the results . To line up with nfl speed. New users would see the slow 40 times and never think of picking that guy

But overall it mixed now. Accuracy is over valued by the code for whatever reason .

I drafted a 7th round qb who maxed out accuracy at camp and his numbers were with nfl averages . No real ceiling for him but he was good enough out the gates as a rookie .

i just had an owner that drafted a qb that boomed and he really wanted to play him to give him experience and play knowledge. His accuracy was like 28/100 or something. He will be a stud in future but in the preseason he went 8/137 64 yards 0 TD and 20 interceptions. That was all in 3 games!!! So this future stud QB is basically worthless in his first year and possibly second. I think grooming a guy is fine but at least make him serviceable so he can play. The way the code reads now you can't put a guy in like this or it's basically tanking. You won't win a game with this kind of guy. I just think the floor on certain attributes is too low when they are generated.
