Haha not really, I am not THAT sure.

But I can see good reasons why there would be a draft.

Keeping that many troops in a combat area over a pro-longed period will require heavy rotation.

I think it all comes down to simple numbers. There might not be a shortage of soldiers NOW, but if this keeps up...

A draft could be avoided by trying to involve foreign nations, maybe the UN, but that would require some major changes in the foreign policy of the US.
