Resolving Contested Draft Picks

Startup Draft - Grunge 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 53 million in unused salary cap cash - regardless of how many uncontested draft picks they had.

Also with a rule change in 2014, players with salary 100 are placed first and when that is complete, all rosters (and salaries) are cleared temporarily to place the remaining players.  In a 2015 rule change, we start the process first with any players given a #1 draft rank.

 

Resolving Players with Salary  > 100 - Ranked #1 and Picked by 7 to 6 teams

7 players have a draft rank of #1 from at least one team and we'll resolve them first

Resolution occurs in the typical order (most teams first, then in order of descending salary, etc.)

Three players were picked by 6 teams
