I'm not sure, but it might mean that the no. of players in your roster or in the other teams in your league has exceeded the maximum no. of players you have allowed for each team. Check your roster as well as those of the other teams in your league. If this is the case, remove/release some of the players. (You have to be in the commissioner mode to remove/release players in the other teams).

By the way, this can happen also if you have very few players. To fill up your roster go the LEAGUE SETUP and press the FILL TEAMS WITH FICTIONAL PLAYERS.This will fill up all teams with generated fictional players up to the roster limit.

Also, you mentioned that you have 3 minor levels but your draft is set only to 11 or 12. This is not enough... The rule of thumb is that you have to generate 5 rounds for each minor level. Following this logic, you should set your draft to 15 or 16.
