I end up doing a draft protecting 15, with each team losing 1 player. I then start a new game, protecting 18, where I first trade the chosen players to the expansion team. Then I do it a 3rd time. its a lot of work....every time you have to go thru and make sure the AI made smart decisions.....they are very bad at prioritizing. I've tried using scouting at 100% accurate, thinking that better scouting info would lead to better AI choices, but it usually does not.

Wow - that sounds like it it takes HOURS
