Expansion, even in real life, really only serves to water down the talent across the league. The only reason it's done in real life is to make more money. Since that dynamic doesn't exist here I don't see a value.

I just don't see that it adds much to the experience to allow players to not sign. If you draft a player, he should just go into the system. 90% of them sign anyway so it basically just applies to the "impossible" guys and then you get awarded a pick the next year if that person was taken in a high ...

I like this idea because it allows teams that are rebuilding to move the process along more quickly by acquiring extra value from win-now teams who may have a lacking farm system but can add value via the draft. Likewise, when that rebuilding team is ready to compete they can pick up ML ready pieces...

You can leave Conrad & Sexson DFA for the first sim after completing the trade. I'll figure out what to do with them for the next one.
