I don't see the usual suspects of random debut play here, so I will also post this in the OOTP25 historical forum.

Anyway, I now create a Fictional League first. But before simming through the first season, I set it for historical rookies, from all seasons and eras, no minimum or maximum. I go to rules and set the draft for November 15 and draft pool announcement for 5 days before, because when I eliminate all the fictional players after the first season I don't want the historical players in the pool already present.

I set the draft to the usual 44 rounds. I Sim through the first season and off-season. Then I clear rosters, go to League info and "actions" and delete all the League players.

I then cancel all League history.

I Sim to the first year players draft. So all the players are at the start of their career. We get everyone and every year this way.

Then I set the next draft to just 7 rounds.

Whadda y'all think?
