At a glance it looks like the big names in no particular order are:
Fultz
Tatum
Isaac
Ntilikina
Fox
Adebayo
Markkanen
Collins
Diallo

some surprises-
Giles ratings are pretty terrible
Jonathan Jeanne has D potential (I assume to make it realistic with his possibly never being able to play)

Overall it feels like a really weak class partially because none of the studs from the real draft were mixed in (Bamba, Porter, Doncic)

I wonder if we are starting to get to the point where it might be interesting after next season to start running back old drafts if that's possible?

If I knew that I wouldn't ask.
Normally there's a post on this board.

In regards to Jeanne I will double check his potential. When you import players, their scouted potential sometimes changes and I dont catch them all.

We have data and notes on maybe the next 7-10 drafts with real players so we still have time without resorting to fake players.

Cool. I actually was wondering if you can re-load old draft files, so it would swing back around to the real draft from X years ago or whatever instead of generated. I don't know FBB well enough to know if that is possible.

Just a tip, it sounds like Ownage is altering them to be a little more accurate, but the potential rating you see on the page can literally reflect a 99 point difference from their actual potential.

It tends to balance itself out over the first couple seasons but the point is, that rating does not affect the player whatsoever.

Correct, I am only adjusting the scouted which has no impact on the game. Their "true" potential will be in their draft notes along with what the scouts say
