The AI will trade Rule 5 draftees, and value them at full value. So you could possible draft a bunch of guys and trade them if you wanted to game the AI.

I'm not understanding what you mean by the above?
In your first comment for example, taking a R5 eligible player and putting them on the 40 man roster
is taking account of R5 status.
I do the same thing. One can always question which players do and do not get protected. IMO this is one area where the AI seems very strong. Rule 5 pickings are slim to none almost every season
The second comment also confuses me. Why would the AI not fully value an asset that it was willing to give a 25 man roster spot for? OTOH I've only ever made one trade of a rare good rule 5 pick and the AI used it to get rid of a pending FA that it couldn't sign.
