Draft Orders

Is there any way to manually change the number of selections in each round for the draft?

My online league is discussing penalizing (or stripping draft picks for) teams that chronically do not sign high draft picks. In the 2013 draft, we have a situation where only 5 of the top 15 picks actually signed. In order to avoid a 50 pick 1st round with several teams picking 2 or 3 times in the first 15 picks, we're looking at taking picks away, but there doesn't seem to be any mechanism to do this.

Does anyone know if it's possible?

I was in a league that was frustrated with this happening before. I want to say it is possible to edit the picks once the draft is available.

Don't understand not signing draft picks. I think you should consider new GMs if they are not participating enough to sign their new talent.

Hey Wilson,

I don't think it was entirely GM neglect. Another GM suggested that a penalty for going over budget could be to be stripped of draft picks, but from the looking around I've done, it doesn't appear that you can actually add or remove picks, just reassign who has them.
