I would like to not waste the first 10 years of his career on seasons that will later be deleted.
Anyways, thanks for the help, looks like I will only get the last half of Bryce's career in the seasons that will stay.

I wouldn't delete seasons with RD because of the issue you're describing. How many are you deleting? If you delete seasons like that, you'll find many more players past their prime than you would in an ordinary Inaugural Draft, and I don't think that's what you want.
The reason you want a mix of players at various stages of their careers in that Inaugural Draft is to maintain a balance in the average age of your league. If you switch out to many guys that are older with their younger counterparts, you'll throw that age average off. RD is really good at being ready to go in the Inaugural Season. 44 players per team. Bump the number of rounds in the Inaugural Draft from 27 to 44, and off you go. Every Amateur Draft will be populated by players in their rookie seasons (sometimes one season before, depending on your recalc settings, if you use them). I may not be understanding what you're trying to do though, so please clarify.
