The new game reveals the draft class during the season.  A news item is created that announces the prospect pool, and you can then draft the players whenever you\u2019ve pre-set the date in June for your ami draft.  Some leagues draft before the season starts, but we\u2019ve always held a June draft.<\/p>\n<p>So what\u2019s the problem?<\/p>\n<p>OOTP 6.5 creates a draft class when you hit the proceed to next season button.  We were about to start our 2018 draft when it suddenly dawned on me that OOTPB 2006 may actually create new prospects in place of the imported players.  If my league spends hours upon hours going through a draft based on OOTP 6.5 generated prospects, will we find out to our dismay that these players do not exist in OOTPB 2006?<\/p>\n<p>Nobody seems to know the answer to that question.<\/p>\n<p>My crack team of owners are going to do some tests to see if the prospects do carry over during the conversion.  Other than that, there continue to be FTP-related bugs reported that may hamper things a bit.
