Resolving Contested Draft Picks

Startup Draft - Grand Slam League

See the Draft Rules for how these players were awarded.  Remember, that all contested players are placed first - so at the beginning, all teams have 37 million in unused salary cap cash - regardless of how many uncontested draft picks they had.

 

For resolution purposes, any player rank left at zero was changed to "999" (to allow for sorting).

Resolving Players with Salary 100 - Ranked #1 and Picked by 10 to 4 teams

With a change made in 2015, we start with players given a #1 draft rank.

Then we resolve in order of the count of teams selecting a player - starting with the ones picked most often.

 

Tyler Glasnow – is the only player with salary 100 with a #1 rank - and was selected by 10 Teams

Two teams put in a bid of 500, and of those, Ultimate gave the higher rank

 


That's it for #1 ranks - now we start with the players picked by the most teams.
