Interpret scouting and trade values
Use estimates as context and distinguish player value from package or committee decisions.
Read the whole player
Player evaluation combines imported football attributes with age, development, role, contract and production context. A high OVR is not a complete estimate of usefulness or long-term value. Compare like roles and inspect the player's actual exported contract and availability.
The trade package view may apply package-specific valuation logic; adding displayed individual numbers by hand is not a guarantee of the package result. Formula changes can require /trade refresh to redraw older cards.
Keep estimates separate from approval
The tool supports league judgment; it does not promise fairness or force approval. League rules and the committee's current review policy still apply. Missing or stale exports can weaken an estimate, and guessed real-world statistics should not be substituted for league production.
