Can we tweak drafts so they don't ****?

I know the old drafts were overpowered but now they are too underpowered. Some drafts do not have any decent players even worthy consideration after the middle of the 2nd.

I think you should still have part way decent players still available in the 4th round and then 5 to 7 be a **** shoot.

Maybe cut your previous change in half. I am in three drafts right now and they all ****.

Beta has this in the works. Look at the bleeding engine drafts next off season .

The draft **** so much because non-improvable athletic skills like Speed and Strength, but mostly Speed, matter so much more than all of the positional skills combined. So with this in mind, the drafts before the latest change to nerf elite players also sucked as hard, it was just harder to tell how hard they sucked.

As Ray says, there is a planned change in the next draft in Beta to get more players with better Speed. That said, it's not going to really matter for most leagues since it'll take at least 2 years (calendar years not game time) to get enough players into a league to start balancing out rosters and get enough players with Speed so that positional skills actually matter.
