Yeah, in the last update, I added a bunch of previously-unrated players to those drafts, but it's not quite enough to push the Soviet-bloc guys off the board. I'm going to see if we can give the human the same ability to make those picks once there's no one else available, rather than stop the AI from doing it. I don't want to eliminate it entirely, since it's actually a pretty good representation of how Soviet/Czechoslovakian players were being drafted in the later rounds of those years, and prevents the human player from unfairly grabbing a bunch of free agents when the Iron Curtain disappears.
