I've always thought Biggio's feeder math was very high for the same reason as mentioned in the OP, it would create way more players than I need just for my 32 (expansion in league evolution in 2014) in my MLB league.
how many minor leagues do you have? that is obviously a huge factor, but if you do 20-25 rounds, you must get a lot of created players not in your feeder leagues. If feeders release 6-7 players per year that means you only get 360-420 players but would need 640-800 for your draft with that many rounds.

I have not used feeders before but plan to in my new league. If I set up just a college feeder league how does the game determine when a player exits college? For instance if I set it up with player creation at min and max both set at 18 so all new players will start out at 18, and set the age min and max at 18 and 21 for the feeder league, will they all wait until they are 22 to exit, or will you have some guys leave when when are 19-20 years old? My hope was to have a college feeder somewhat like college basketball is now, where you have your stars only play 1-2 years in college and then go into the draft while other guys play 3-4 years...
