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

Should be able to still get something of worth at #16. Excellent.
