A good year to have not traded away my picks by the looks of things.

[mstreeter06]

Statslab is ready to go for picks 1-9 only for the time being. I'll get picks 10-12 decided later today. We'll only be able to draft until pick 12 until we progress in the playoffs.

should i be worried my second first round pick isnt reflected? i had VA's?

[mstreeter06]

Virginia's draft slot is still to be decided. Only picks 1-1 through 1-9 are correct in Statslab only and not the game.

Hope he won't be hurt by me rooting for his early exit from the playoffs LOL If this is what the drafts look like going forward that is awesome.

This is 99% likely an unique draft pool. My guess it's due to this being the first cycle (4 seasons) of players. I bet after this class we'll see somewhere in between this and previous pools.

Also, remember that starting in 2021's draft pool, there will be generated International Amateurs that will be apart of the pools.

The pool is so good this year, because you changed the setting that allows the college draftees to leave a year earlier than usually, next years class is probably gonna be really thin since those guys got moved up to this year.

You might be right. That was whatever the game defaulted to. I'll review these settings after the postseason so we can make sure to have consistency from here on out. The feeder league option is still pretty new and uncharted waters .

Iowa selects 3B Mike Garza out of O'Hara Township College with the 1st overall pick of the 2020 AFBL Amateur Draft!

[mstreeter06]

I'm updating the traded picks to reflect the recent GA-IA trade and will move the 2nd overall pick to Iowa in the next few minutes. The trade will be processed during the next sim.
