Well I had 10 picks in this last draft and only 2 had declines and 2 had no gains so I would rate this as a complete success. The ones with the higher V rating had the biggest changes. I dont know if thats what meant to happen or it just worked out that way.


RB V=10 0 change
LT V=6 0 change
LG V=30 +1
LG V=42 -1
C V=66 -2
LDE V=14 +1
RDE V=88 +6
MLB V=20 +2
WLB V=88 +4
WLB V=16 +1
WLB V=80 +2

pretty much every player I picked dropped in rating, it was a pretty big failure for me

Same for me. Everyone significant dropped. Rough TC, but that's the risk I took!

Volatility is going to be love/hate for me lol

I had 3 1st rd picks...+1, -3, -3 respectively. Also, my 3rd year QB who was +3 ly, dropped -4 ty, weird. Again, more loosers than gainers like most TCs for NJY

My 5th year QB dropped like -4 this season, but none of his attributes changed. Only his weight.

Not a good Training Camp for me, had more declines in future potential than I did inclines but I am excited for the few players that had big boosts.

1st- CB Walton Pearce 42 volatility -3
2nd- WR Jerrold Jackson 76 volatility -4
3rd- DT James Slavin 86 volatility +5
4th- FS Curtis Hasse 50 volatility -2
5th- SLB Gerald Miner 100 volatility -11 (Ouch, a big bust...)
6th- LT Ray Benson 58 volatility -2
7th- LDE David Meyer 86 volatility +2

My 20p worth,

I think it adds to the draft with it,than without it, and should be kept in for future drafts.

You have the option to gamble or take a lesser talented player but with less chance of a bust,which I think is good....Do you feel lucky punk?

It still seems a bit of pot luck though, and see some players with low Volatility have had gains.

Would not like to see it as a "yearly" action for every player,just rookies through TC.

I find that I'm already missing this feature in the drafts for other leagues. It definitely adds another interesting element.

JDB,

Does a players Volatility rating effect other things.

How much he will boom/bust?
How fast he will loose his attributes when he`s past his prime?
How early or late he decides to retire?

Only his likelihood to boom or bust.
