Claimed: TERRIBLE Mock Draft :lol:

[Pandar 302]

When it comes time to select a player in the Draft, there are many decisions that a GM has to face.  One of the biggest problems for sim league GMs is that you have to project who will not only fill your team needs but also that you need to be able to project who will actually stay active throughout the course of career.  Now, as a newer VHL member, I’m still trying to acclimate to the fact that careers are only 7-8 seasons long, so this might not be as big an issue as it would be on other sim leagues.  As such, one of the best ways for a GM to select which player they go with is probably to go off of TPE.  This is about the most reliable way to judge current activity levels, this method would also likely prioritize recreates as they’d have carryover TPE and would have been able to get a season and a quarter’s worth of TPE by working the system and retiring after the trade deadline.  This certainly makes this method unreliable, as some GMs would probably prefer to acquire a recreate where they would have a better idea of what they’re getting from the user, while others might prefer to take a new user who might be less likely to burn-out or get bored.  Since I haven’t been around long enough to know which GMs have problems with which users, I’ll be making my mock draft purely off of the assumption that the GM will choose the Best Player Available as measured by TPE.  This Mock Draft will present the player, his TPE, and several notable stats from the most recent season in the VHLM.  I fully admit that I have absolutely zero faith in this mock draft, but it’s an interesting way to look at this upcoming draft.
