Even with 6500 points available i don't go past 15 guys recieving points. I tried that before and what happened was I wasn't moving the lock bar fast enough and the longer you wait the more chance of either another team swooping in and getting a monster visit or you taking it into the offseason and hoping nobody drops 10k on them to steal them. I am much happier focusing on 10-15 with close to max points as really you need to maintain ~15-17 total per year to keep a 70 man roster well stocked. There is no need (other than year 1 of a 1* team) to land 20-25 recruits.
