So far I've tried holding drafts in June and find many players end up being drafted a year or more earlier than they were in real life.

I have box checked for "Automatically Import Historical Rookies". Should I not check this box?
The way it's set up is the way you're supposed to do it. Let's say a player was a rookie IRL in 1985. He will come in in the draft on December 15th, 1984 and thus be available for you exactly when you want him. If you move the draft to June, I would imagine you'll get what you're seeing, players coming in a year before. Make it December 15th, and yes they will be coming in a few months early, but at least they won't play before they should.
