I guess my point is, if your league were working "normally" (ie not locking up), I would have suggestions. But since something in your online league is now fubared, I'm not sure even what I have to say would help. But, anyway, here are my thoughts:

I've had problems with trading draft picks for some time. One suggestion that was given to me was this. After the draft each year, delete the "tradedpicks.dat" file. I believe it is in the root of the .lg directory. This seems to help OOTP keep the draft picks straight. Of course, since you're in the middle of the league, you may have to determine what impact this would have, if any, on the existing league.

I'm also not 100% certain that this works and solves the problem. I tried it once in a test league, and I was able to make a trade, get through the draft the following season, and have a normal draft the season after that. But, that was just one test, using a very simple scenario.

Draft picks also seem to be more robust in 6.5b, but that hasn't been released yet.

Let me know if you have any questions.
