Quick Question.

With the initial draft having a budget. will the armature draft have one as well, which would include signing bonuses?

Thank you,
Josh

I'm not a beta member so I honestly don't know, but I doubt it. The reason why I can see one and not the other is because without inaugural draft budgets you can have a small market team draft a high-priced squad when you don't want it too. I don't think OOTP is ever like the NFL in that a team (e.g. the Detroit Lions) can make that precarious of a financial move over just the amateur draft. I can see why someone might like to have an amateur budget feature, but I don't see it as such a pressing need as an inaugural budget so if it's not already been announced I doubt you'll see it. You might want to make sure it's been posted in the suggestions forum though.

There is supposed to be an amateur draft budget as well. Once draftee's start having costs > their minor league contracts, it is a necessity.
