I'm considering also making the conversion, but have some questions.

If ratings are set to 0, does that mean that the AI also puts 0 weight on a player's potential? Wouldn't that mean that, in trade talks, the AI would grossly undervalue prospects?

Also, when it comes to those values, I assume that, when you pass January 1, but it's still the offseason or the preseason, "current year" shouldn't be taken literally and it still means the most recently completed full season. But, what happens when the season starts and everyone's current year stats are all just small sample sizes? Does that present any problems with the AI's player evaluations?
