The game usually takes a few seasons to find its groove and this seems to keep it from doing so.

Now, it being RD means you're perhaps not looking for exactitude with historical replication of stat outputs. In which case, this probably isn't a problem. Worth noting, all the same.

Yes, this is one of my concerns as well. I usually pre start my leagues 3-4 years before I start them for real but won’t really be able to do that in this case. Thanks for commenting.
David suggests testing the league first which is something I always do anyway. I have a “regular” random league which is going well and this I might try as a fun league when I want a little break. I think for now for this league instead of playing out some games I will sim a year at a time and look at the resulting outcomes of the season.
