What do you even mean by this? You can test players current abilities in real life. Real data that isn't coloured by expectations.


In RL they don't give top prospects bonus stats like OOTP does, so why should the game now.

We need real stats for minors, without them I have no clue how well they are performing. I can't trust overall/potential ratings as that formula changes every year, going as far as taking players rated 55 over one year to 35 the next.
