Some interesting defensive improvements from the 2010 draft (2010 draft was the first time we used FBCB, those players are now in their 4th year).

William Brice C to B+ (+4)
Schultz B to A (+3)
Max C to A- (+5)
O'Connell C to B (+3)

So it appears while they come into the league with poor defense, many of them can and do improve substantially.

It's a nice way of seeing how much players have improved over the years.

- Rex Mehta has gone up 10 ratings in only 3 TC's. That's crazy.
- Nolan Keogan up 8.
- Juan Ward up 9. He went undrafted
- Curtis Sura up 9.
- Vince Davies up 7.
- Don Ruffin up 8. 7 just from D/Reb
- Carlos Tower up 9.
- Alphonse Butler up 9.
- Bertram Shultz up 7.
- William Brice up 7.
- Barton O'Connell up 8.
- Max Gutierrez up 11! 5 just from defense.
- Lincoln Lord up 7.
- Richard Milner up 7. And that's only in two TC's.

And don't forget the Rodney Dangerfield of the SSBA....

Eddie Uner + 10 and very balanced.  +2 out, +3 handle, +3 def, +2 reb.  Not too bad for the 21st pick.

Ward was drafted by me.  Computer auto pick in second round.
