I mostly understand about the draft. But is it true that the first draft of the new season would have the best prospects and lesser quality the further you go into the season? Is this explained anywhere?

Thanks.

We draft players from a series of pools (Asian, College, Latin etc.) generated at the beginning of each season. The prospects in each pool are set at that time and do not change. Throughout the ten weeks of the season each owner gets to draft once per week (how many of the total number of owners draft week-to-week likely varies).

Naturally, owners would take the best available player (to their eyes) presented to them in each week's draft. Consequently, the overall quality of the prospects available would decrease as the season goes on. That's not to say you can't find a gem towards the end of the season, but the odds of doing so would decrease as each week passes.

Several players who are worth keeping were drafted by teams this week in round 7. I'd say that although the overall quality decreases, as Haselrig said, there are still gems to be found.
