Re: Multi-team Expansion draft for a Custom league.

Yeah, I did a post about this issue a week ago or so.  The more I think about it, the stranger it is that there wasn't a multi-team expansion draft option from game launch.

Like that actually seems like the easiest option.  Expansion draft is already in the game, the protection list rules would be the exact same. Just instead of losing 1 player, you'd lose 2 or 3 or however many teams you're adding to your custom league.

It's good to know (but also bad at the same time) that other people are having the same frustrations. I really hope this gets addressed.

    Agreed, one would think it'd be easy for them to just make an option for a multi-team expansion draft, building it like you said. Such a missed opportunity, it would be so much fun. Fantasy draft just doesn't do it for me.

    I share your sentiment, glad to hear from fellow franchise GM's. 🙂

    @Blad3s_0f_5teel When I do Fantasy drafts I try to give myself a theme of players I pick, same as I would with an expansion draft. Adding multi team Custom League and a Fantasy Draft is pretty fun. I have found some pretty fun Settings for Custom League though. If they would just fix Full Broadcast and the coaching strategies, I would actually be a pretty happy Franchise player.

    That type of FD sounds like an idea to try out! 🙂

    I wish those would return, too. The missing features are what are keeping me from buying the game, and it doesn't help that luring RFAs to your team won't cost you draft picks. I'm happy to get my hockey fix from NHL 22 bought on Black friday last year.

    @Blad3s_0f_5teel I like doing one that is i draft no player under the age of 30, lol. So its all old dudes, lol. Or no one over 21. Or I will make rules, like i cannot sign a FA that has a higher overall then 85 for 5 seasons. . It forces me to build through the draft. Just interesting ideas.
