I also think they should/will expand the yearly TAM amount again in 2017 to fit 3 players per year. So rosters could look something like this:

I consider myself to be pretty cautious with the addition of more international spots, but I think there's a need in order to keep growing the league, and just one wouldn't hurt too much - there's more investment in academies today than there has been ever, so I think the stars are aligning for this to happen.
