Again, in 5TM there isn't a problem with it, rebuilding teams generally aren't the ones dealing DPs anyway, it's usually contending teams trying to make a run or teams will trade up or down in the draft. Allowing it to be done earlier gives people more options, it's not like people have to deal them during Spring Training, if they want to wait they can.
We're not like any other league. The draft here is like nowhere else, the value of picks is like nowhere else. Arguments about "just let things happen as they will" or "let GMs do things as they want" are just tired. There is a reason for the rule and it is to prevent a dumb GM doing things that will hurt the league long-term. We're stable enough with GMs that I am not too worried, but I wouldn't rule out us pushing the deadline back in the future if things change. For now, this is safe and I know people will appreciate it.
