I'm just writing to agree, strongly, with JAttractive. I not only drafted 50 rounds, i actually filled AAA and AA and A in the first season of my league. This is arguably going overboard, but i've been quite happy with the results. A few of the fictional fill-in players are turning into stars over time, which is fine. I consider it the equivalent of a Dan Quisenberry or a John Kruk being overlooked by scouts until his results demanded attention.

Even with the fill-ins, only one of the four Rookies Of The Year in seasons two and three actually played well; only in the fourth year have serious prospects emerged. But teams have been able to shuffle regulars at two or three positions per season in the meantime, because the bench depth has been created.
