The following is a mock draft voted on by Strat players on the SomWorld Forum. They were considering all players getting their initial cards this season.

Pick #2: Tommy Hanson (Hanson 30 votes, Beckham 15)
Pick #3: Gordon Beckham (Beckham 24 votes, Price 8)

Exactly why we should go back to the old way when we had a choice to use un-carded reserve slots on carded players and only keeping 15 +2.
The draft has enjoyed great boredom in recent years... The way it's set up now, all 32 un-carded picks are used on un-carded players. The way it WAS, maybe only 16 at most were kept, and you certainly had a harder time keeping un-cardeds for multiple years.
My annual bitching and argument against un-limited rosters certain to fall on deaf ears again, but there it is!
you have my vote. no more *uncarded players would be fine by me.
*not counting injured veterans
AND no more un-limited rosters?
we don't have unlimited rosters now... but if you mean going back to 15 (or some other number), bring it up for vote. you never know.
I don't know if I would go with "no uncarded players", but I would vote to go back to "the way it was" (i.e., 15 + 2 with a preliminary reserve draft). Effective in 2011, of course.
Other than a cap at 30, do we not now have "unlimited rosters"?
i'm posting my response as a new entry to draw more attention to your positions on this.
unlimited rosters with a cap at 30.
is that an oxymoron or a paradox? i forget.
