Well, the drafting would have to happen in the fall (winter, probably), for the simple reason that we don't know who's officially coming back, and what's happening in the rookie department. With so many kids graduating, and some of them going on to start teams, I would say some are draftable in such a scenario.

Curtis does have an interesting concept with the five regionals plus the Championship. Since I know that teams add and drop regionals with some frequency, I think the easiest way to run it on the back end would be to lock in the competitions at the time of drafting.

For example: Let's say 1293 signs up for Palmetto, and I, even though wisdom from Palmetto FF last season screams otherwise, pick them. Drafting continues, and 1293 magically signs up for Peachtree and Florida. At this point, I'm still only getting points for 1293's performance at Palmetto, but I could draft them again to get the newer regionals.

Thoughts?
