I think more managers will be screaming for their draftees then to get their salary updated =)
Oh and i keep track of my teams developement and know with decent accuracy how much the salary will change. This season i was of by a lot though as the salary formula got changed. It was in the right direction though =)
More like the salary update will be the most important thing and needs to be done first, until it is and then the draft / new leagues will be the new most important thing.
