I've spent the majority of my short time in this game training guards, and planned on doing so for the next season or two based on the fact that my main trainee still has some room to grow. I just found a prospect in the draft (wasn't planning on using points this season, but I'm drunk so eff it) that's listed as a C, 18 years old and 5/5. I'm picking late in the round (14th, I think) but think there's a decent chance I can pick him up based on my league being comprised of a few new teams, and a few established teams that don't seem to put much into the draft.

That's the set up, here's the question:

If I manage to get him, what's my best course of action? Do I sell him for as much as I can get, or is it worth training his secondaries for a season or two until my guard gets where I want him to be? There's definitely pros and cons to both options, but I wanted to get some feedback from those of you that know more than me, and that'd be most of you.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Well posting his age,position and height is a bad start in your attempt to get him so delete that right away. If you do manage to draft him then it really comes down to personal preference. You can take the money and run which could help u buy some players or expand your stadium. Or you could make your trainee your centrepiece and hopefully take your team up to the top division.

I pulled his height down, but I'm not too worried someone from my league will see this and steal him. A.) That would mean they already scouted him, had his info, and were probably going to take him anyways, and B.) I've found 4 other players that were 5/4 and 4/4 just by doing the group demonstration and then a couple interviews. If I miss this guy, I have a couple other options.

Thanks for the advice!
