The file is uploaded with the players placed on the franchises that bid the most for them then the next round commences.
This type of draft is not a one team at a time selection. Me first then you then the third team and so on down the list. Put your brain to the test. What is that 33 year old 9 rated power hitter with 2 years left on his current contract at $17 million per season worth to you? You and I both start out with $100 million to spend on players. If you bid $10 of your $100 for him will it be enough?

Think of the potential disaster of this... Team A rates 50 players using up all $100 million, hoping that he hits on just 25 of them to fill out a ML roster. He ends up being 2nd or worse on every player he rated, so he gets his $100 mill back but has to fill his roster with whatever is left that went undrafted.
Too much luck involved when it seems the idea is to produce a balanced and fair league.
