Intrinsic factors for draft eligible players

FutureBack.Mom1,000+ posts

We have all heard the term "5 tool player" ... but I have also been hearing about the concept of "intrinsic factors" with regard to draft eligible players. I am curious as to what other people believe are some of the "intrinsic factors" that make an eligible player more appealing to a club. Thought this would be an interesting (and hopefully less controversial) topic for this forum.

Some of the ones that come to mind for me are:

>Work ethic (displayed by academic and athletic improvement)
>Character (e.g., not a trouble maker, a team player, etc.)
>Leadership abilities (as witnessed with the team)

What are some others?

(Would especially be interested in hearing from any scouts and advisors/agents who post here.)
