Of course there will be. "It may not happen overnight, but it will happen."
Wars of choice (i.e. most US wars) can be turned on and off when required. Those can be waged without needing to use the draft.
Other wars, that continue with a determined opponent (Vietnamese War, for example), can not be turned off unilaterally and must proceed till a defeat or victory.
Those wars will always require a draft if "the war situation has developed not necessarily to [the US's] advantage". (Paraphrasing Hirohito's Speech regarding Japan's surrender.)
