I wouldn't change the number because the rest of the OOTP expansion process doesn't work like it does in the real world. There's no limitation on the number of players that can be selected from one club, and as a result it is possible for an existing club to be effectively looted during OOTP's version of an expansion draft.

So, using a higher protected number is necessary to counteract this.
