im seeing a lot people joining the site and then hitting the FA market?? and on top of that they only seem to target the player who have a high price cause i guess high price makes them better

these player are all still so new so i dont see any reason to pay 50k+ for 1 player

I don't either. The most I've paid for a player so far was around 13 to 14 thousand, and that was only because it was a position that is hard to get and you're going to be paying that anyway.

I've put up around 30k for solid players under the age of 20 with 18+ teamwork. The way I figure, they have plenty of time left to grow and they'll be growing at twice the rate of many other players.

Well most i paid was 20k for a needed spot due to injury and 13k for a QB which my other QB has a passing rating of ONE....but just seeing people bid over 50,000 for 1 player when they could just wait a few hours and get one equal or better for cheaper

I paid 22,000 for a QB yesterday, but it was because he's 16 and has high intelligence. I'd been trying to get a 2nd QB since the game started, and always ended up losing it at the last minute because I was either asleep or busy. My starter is 30 and probably within a couple of years of retiring, so I figured I better get a good young guy in here to be ready to take his place.

This is what i was referring to someone selling there whole team to buy a new team and thus picking up my WR for 8k of which the guy couldn't catch a cold let alone a pitch to him

Why do all these guys spend soo much money and buy so many players i can somewhat understand selling the old guys but selling people 16-17 just seems like something Matt Millen would do....
