In the case of the league I commish... we have less sandwich picks total, than we have teams... so all the sandwich picks fit into one round. The extra picks at the end of the round will just be drafting the worst players of the draft as fillers so that we can move to the next round.
Fhomess, is this the best way to handle this kind of situation AND do you (or anyone else in this thread) see any possible hang ups?
In a possible future patch.... it would be cool if you could have the option when assigning picks to each round, of choosing to not list a team and then move it to the next round. OR even better would be if you could simply choose a toggle for the sandwich pick round to be active or not (between round 1 and 2) and then choose how many picks, exactly, to have in that round.

I think your proposed plan of adding a round and picking scrubs for the teams that don't have sandwich picks is the best plan in the current version.
I have a second patch in the works which includes the ability to mark picks to skip over. This lets you have the flexibility to create a sandwich pick round with less picks than the number of teams in your league, but also allows you to impose sanctions on teams by skipping any pick in any round. You could even create additional sandwich pick rounds later in the same draft if your league has custom FA compensation rules. If you're interested in beta testing this patch, I'll send you a link where you can download it. Just shoot me a PM.
The patch will also contain the ability to display fielding stats, career metrics, and season metrics on the leaderboards pages.
