I had 18 go positive , +33 future and whooping +78 in current. I paid no attention to volatility at all, I think it really is a craps shoot, so you might as well shoot for the stars.
I had 12 players have neutral future growth but all had positive current growth, which is great.
Worst TC goes to Victor Green my SS who went -4 in future growth but +6 in current.

Overall I'm reasonably happy with my draft but think we will struggle a bit.

Prediction: 9 - 7 . We'll scrape into the wildcard round and go straight out.

Looking around the league quickly, its going to be a really interesting first season as no one is really sticking out (imo)

My Team seems to be more volatile, 21 got up in future Rating and 21 down. Overall im happy with that as i did draft Players with low volatitity in the first rounds and Players with high in the later ones. I really donw care about the backup that lost 15 in future, i much rather apprechiate the ones that who did improve and eventually become Starters in the future. My first two picks lost a bit, being the most negative aspect of the Team.

However - i have a question about tracking the development of Players. For example Newburn - a great LG which i choose to let him Play RT because the future Rating there is even higher. I can see his develpment for LG but not for RT right now, right? How can i Keep track on his development at RT?

I'm not sure, change his position back to RT to see it?

I'm really surprised at how even my camp was despite all of the young volatility that I had. O-line stayed the same pretty much, TE and WR took a bit of a hit, all of my worthless QBs went up, and my only big hits were to my FS (-3, not too bad), and my 6th Round pick DT who is now a 79, which bothers me more than it hurts me. All in all, I can't complain and I consider myself lucky.

Well, thats the Thing. I see +9/0 but i dont know if ist the same for RT as it is for LG. He is my #2 RT right now and i dont have him at LG, but as his current Rating on LG is higher, he is shown as an LG in the Team home page...

I did a player search for him (John Newburn) and he came out as +5/0 for me at LG and +4/0 at RT

Net plus 16 for future team overall. WR (+23/+4) and CB (+26/+11) were all winners except one. That was 13 players. The rest of the offense suffered and my DL and LB corp were so so. I'm happy. If this was a real Browns draft, it would be hands down better than 1999-2015 combined, but that's not saying much.

3 nice surprises:
#1 WR: +4
#1 LG: +6
#1 SLB: +3

However, I took a lot of hits on players that are either starters or should see significant playing time:

#1a QB: -3
#1b QB: -1
#1 RB: -5
#1 TE: -3
#2 WR: -1
#3 WR: -4
#5 WR: -2
#1 LT: -2
#1 C: -2
#1 MLB: -3
#1 WLB: -3
#1 CB: -3
#2 CB: -2
#3 CB: -4
#1 FS: -3
#1 K: -4

Overall:
4 improved greater than +2
37 stayed between -2 and +2
15 declined greater than -2

Good news is that my DL seems to have been spared for the most part. If I can only convince my opponents to run the FB dive 75% of the time I should be ok.
