Getting excited for the draft. In reading the rules, I wanted to verify:
- I need to drop at least 10 and as many as 15 players (I have one pick traded away and 1 pick acquired by the previous owner)
- Everyone participates in the first 10 rounds, Round 11-15 are only for those that have roster openings.
- Any other advice?

In terms of drops - this is the idea - you get to keep up to 20 players (less if you want) and 10 prospects (less if you want).
You're correct about the free agent draft.
There's a 2 round prospect draft.
There are 2 leagues played each year. After the first league is done, you can choose to drop a player or 2, and then there is a supplemental draft - essentially a small free agent draft - in between leagues 1 and 2 each year. I haven't taken full advantage of the supplemental draft in past years to this point, but I think the idea there is that you can draft players who have had hot starts in 2015 (i.e. draft them for next year's cards as keepers), or just to fill in roster holes.
