the 28 year old is miles from his cap obviously, but i wouldnt play him at my training position unless he was there to win me games. He might go up a little from that over time.

the 25 year old is pretty close to as good as he's going to get, so if you are to train him his deficiencies are what you would prioritize assuming you anticipate keeping him.

the 23 year old is quite a ways away from cap, and is well behind in development.

If you have a 40k trainer that you just bought, i'd go buy a new player to develop. Otherwise, i'd be in search of someone cheaper than that. Thats on the expensive side of a level 5.

ok so what you are saying is, the 28 year old because of his age won't improve much more despite his potential? so out of all 3 i should look at really focussing on the 23 year old and maybe a new prospect too?

I would focus on that 18 YO superstar SG that you have. If I were you, I'd also buy another 18 or 19 YO guard off the TL with at least star potential.

Age is a significant issue when training. IF the 28 year old is your starter, then you can go ahead and and keep him at 48 minutes a week, and he will pick up a pop or two (assuming you train something 4-5 times and/or his sub-level is relatively high). Just view him as a veteran player who learns a trick or two during his career to make him do something better rather than a trainee that can get significantly better.

23 only pops maybe 8-9 times. 18 if you are good with rotation can double that up.

Potential has no reflection on speed nor longevity of training, it merely sets a point in which you are wasting your time to train him further. This is why i hate the name potential, it makes new players waste hundreds of thousands of dollars on talent that is nowhere near the value they think.
