Thoughts?

I think it'd be cool to deem every day of our allocation draft as:

Day 1- 5 star recruits
Day 2- 4 star recruits
Day 3- 3 star recruits
Day 4- 2 star recruits
Day 5- 1 star recruits
Day 6- Walkons

It'd be cool imo to think of it like this :)

I also think that there should be no trading or at a minimum, RESTRICTED trading.

I would hope that for the initial draft that there is no trading of picks. It is a snake draft and everyone should have roughly balanced teams with that format.

i'm not a fan of allocation draft trades but as of now we will vote on the trading system before any trades will be allowed

It would also be neat if the draft pool was all rookies.
I'm not sure but it probably wouldn't be too hard to make a college version of this game where players only had 4 years of eligibility. That would be pretty cool!

While I'm fine with the current format and wouldn't want to put any extra work on the Commish, a way to facilitate this would be...

Only allow players aged 9-12. 9 would be freshmen as rookies will start very low in their stats. If players retire early, it would be the equivalent of them declaring early for the draft. If a player reaches 13, they are simply removed.

With that said, the draft pool would probably be too small to accommodate full rosters for all teams. Honestly, unless the engine was changed, I think it would be too much work to implement manually.

I love this idea - if it is possible.
