Well, I just looked at my own setup. I have 64 college teams with 25-man rosters. They have a four-year (18-21) age span, so figure each school generating 1/4 or 6 guys for the draft every year. That's only 384 players.

Much depends on the size of your parent league, however, which you don't mention. Mine is 30 teams, same as MLB. My draft is the same as yours; 30 teams picking 20 rounds = 600 players total.

That means I am short 216 players and that is why I have the Draft Feeding Mode set for Feeder League + Additional Players to fill out the draft.

As I said above in this thread, my scout sucks for the draft, for reasons stated. Using OSA and college stats, however, I don't think I have seen talent inflation.

I think you guys are generating too many players from your feeder leagues.
HOw long has your league been going for? Can you send me the .dat's?
