Best Gem/Worst Bust you've had so far?

[pendo]

Basically the title. I have gotten a QB with a plus 10 and DE with a Minus 10. Also, what is the highest overall you have had as a FR? I think i had a DE with an 83, but i have only played 2 seasons.

highest increase: +11

Best gem for me would be a bust for other schools.

I'm ULL so being in the sunbelt battling LSU, Florida, Alabama, Texas, etc for high end recruits is impossible.

There was a 4 star, 6'6" 217lb WR that dropped from a 75 overall to a 70 fully scouted. All the big schools quit recruiting him and by week 3 I surpassed Alabama as his #1 school. I was also the only school to offer a scholarship.

For my little program a 6'6" 217lb WR rated a 70 will be a stud by his junior and senior year. Huge pick up for me.

I know how you feel. I'm ULL in my OS OD (although we haven't started yet) and UAB in another one with my coworkers. We started the UAB one last night and I only had six players total with any interest in coming to the Magic City! And to top it off, all six of them are 1*, so it's going to be tough.

As far as the topic at hand - In my offline dynasty I'm using Alabama and I need a kicker. So I put two 3* kickers on my board, one was ranked around 530 and the other was ranked over 1300. I can't remember exactly what they were rated, but once I scouted them the lower one ended up rated better than the on ranked in the 500s. I think it was around a 8 or 9 point swing.
I'm loving the new scouting and recruiting!

My best was a 3 star quarterback who went from a 69 to a 78. My worst bust was from 75 to 67.
