I think Buzzer should consider awarding slightly higher DMI to players that have trained under your team. Each pop a player gets under your training should allow that player SLIGHTLY more DMI than just a free agent you buy. This would encourage owners to draft and train their own players. Do not make it so much higher that it kills the free agent market. Just maybe 5% higher or so so that there is a slight reward for drafting and training.

DMI (Deliberately Meaningless Index) doesn't actually impact player skill at all. It's in essence Salary x Game Shape.

It's useful for training to see if a player has been receiving any, and it's useful for seeing how high of game shape a player is within their interval (8 could mean 8.1 or 8.9).

However, game shape plays no real role in how good a player is. You could have a donkey big at 15 in every big skill with 80 TSP hit 1,500,000 DMI while a balanced SF hits 120 TSP and barely scratches 800,000 DMI. However, the SF a much better player in most scenarios and will play better, he will have a lower salary resulting in a lower DMI.

I think therefore your suggestion is not useful and you might want to rethink that idea with this knowledge and likely how you scout opposing players in the future.

the reward for training is being able to go over salary cap without penalty

i don't know if giving draftees a faster training would be good

i think there's also a boost for players you drafted who play in games
there's a thread in global for homegrown teams and they have monster merchandise numbers

or you mean players you buy and train? (which i'd love by the way, as i always do that. my draftees usually suck)
