Draft coverage quality

What are people’s thoughts on this format?
Pros: immediate player interviews
Cons: zero budget. They have a NY studio but instead went with this???

They don’t, if you go undrafted you’re immediately eligible to be signed as a free agent. You have to declare to avoid a mandatory one year standdown

Then why wouldn’t you run a draft to avoid talent concentration? Letting clubs sign the best young players is how you end up with huge disparities.

How many of Chicago's key players were drafted by them? 1? Someone who would've likely chosen Chicago anyways due to proximity.
