Budget Analysis

This was originally posted by robocoach as a comment on the first post:

A brief pre-season analysis of prospect budgets.

This season all teams combined allocated 440 Million to prospect budget, with 8 maxing at 20 million. Last year teams allocated 454 million to prospect, also with 8 teams at 20 million. However, last year more than 20 teams increased their prospect budget during the season, some of them (most of the 20 million teams) doing so substantally. I'm guessing that as leagues mature their 1st few seasons, steadily more budget goes to player salary, but I'll guess we'll see.
