Most owners went light on IDPs in the inaugural draft because of their own biases and ever since we've been tweaking the rules to devalue IDPs further.

I say be aware of the existence of IDPs - tweak the rules to value IDPs more and I think you'll see the top end problem with offensive players start to fix itself.
I will then add the footnote to my statements that I am talking under the assumption that the trend we see going on this year continues next year. Unless there is overwhelming support, I wouldn't want to change anything prior to the next RFA season either, but, if the same thing happens, I think change would be obviously called for. I for one am simply thinking out loud about what the problem appears to be and brainstorming solutions. If we see the same thing happen next year, we'll have this thread to refer back to to see what the original ideas were and what the original perceptions of the problems were.
