Yeah, this is one of the things I gotta do in the draft to make it better in the next release.

The way we handle it now in one of my leagues is you generate the normal draft order as if there were no additional picks/supplemental picks. After OU generates all of the rounds, then manually edit the OOTPOU/draft/<league>/<year>/picks.txt file and insert the picks where they should go (the format is BOS-BOS, which is team the pick originally belonged to and the current team that owns it, if I recall). You'll get the pick order right, but the draft round headers will be off (which is purely cosmetic).

Yes, this is pooptastic (it was written for OOTP before it supported supplimental picks), and one of the many things that will be improved shortly.
