Theoretically, it would work this way. Say the 2 worst teams in your league didn't scout and were willing to sell their draft picks. They could sell it like you sell players on the transfer list, only they choose which pick to sell (round 1,2, and/or 3). Then you and your fellow league members could bid up the price of that draft pick. A first or second overall pick could sell for big money.

This idea would allow people who don't care about the draft to opt out and get some extra cash for their picks. And for people like you and me, we could horde some picks, or get 1st rounders, and try and get a worthy player to train up from the ground up.

I don't know how complex writing code into this game is (I assume it's quite extensive) but I would imagine that this add-on feature wouldn't be too hard to implement.

I imagine it would be a lot of hard code to write (always assume it is a lot of code), but I also think it would be worth it ;)

You can still buy rookies after the draft. Especially in large nations it's relatively easy to get domestic players on the market.

My league is filled with bots, who would sell me his draft pick? I don't like the suggestion.

Give us a youth squad, so luck is eliminated and everybody is responsible for his own results. #profit

No? Why not?

You get what you pay for - the draft is almost pure luck

When you say youth squad, do you mean like a developmental or minor league team?
