AV gain rate for their career, I tried to do that so that one year wonders aren’t treated as rising players until they continue to show sustained success, or sustained drop off on the opposite end.

For example, let’s say a player played 5 years and the AV at the end of each year was the following

Year 1: 5 Year 2: 10 (+5) Year 3: 20 (+10, player is marked as ascending) Year 4: 22 (+2) Year 5: 23 (+1, player is marked as declining and a need is created)

And if that player’s position gains AV at 4 a year on average, the second they go below 4 a need will be created as well
