And the problem with this complaint is: We do know how the people the draftees were brought in to replace played. You don't want a draftee challeging your position - play well consistently. Show the team there is not a need at your position. Even then, if you're an older player and not tagged to be a starter: Beware, when it comes to depth, youth is a benefit and age a liability.
