New idea:

We open up trading across all eras, but at the end of the draft you still have to have at least one player from every era? Sufficient to seriously consider?

Yes, also we should still adhere to the rule of your first five picks have to be from different eras. I think almost everyone has completed that though.

We open up trading across all eras (maintaining the original first-five pick era rule, of course), but at the end of the draft you still have to have at least one player from every era (this draft is deep enough for that to have ramifications)? I'd like a rule that is relatively simple, and at this point, there just isn't one that clarifies/answers this question. Sufficient?

Not sure if I understand, but what I think you are saying is I could trade Magic from 70’s era for Shaq, 90’s era, but at the end of the draft I have to have five guys in my starting lineup from all different era’s? Am I correct?

No. To start, we have already established a rule regarding lineups and I am 1000% against changing that.

You simply have to have at least one player from every era on your roster, you do not have to start them. It's not what I was aiming for originally, but it means something with how deep this draft is (beyond that the eras rule for picks 1-5 also had a meaningful impact).

It's my best effort at a relatively simple rule because it's really easy for this to either be overcomplicated or over-restrictive.

I like this. My vote would be yes.

Ok, so one player from every era in first five picks, but they don’t all have to start?
