What if, like in real life, if a player goes undrafted, that player goes to the waiver wire rather than being deleted? This would be an interesting addition. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but the undrafted players do actually get deleted right? Or do they enter into the Pac-12 league of bot teams and UCLA (Steve's team)? |

Regarding the advantages, if there are any decent prospects left over, any 12 POT and up that teams have missed throughout the season, it would make for a more interesting off-season as there are more available players, more options. Then again, I don't know how many good prospects would be left which is what I fear your next point will be. Do you know what is usually left Steve? Obviously the draft pool would be very depleted after 10 weeks of drafting, but to what extent? If there are say, three 13 POT players left in the pool, I say it would be worth placing the leftover players in the waiver wire. Otherwise, if basically all the rest of the players are 11 POT and below, there would be no point. Updated Friday, June 19 2015 @ 10:10:37 pm PDT |

If there is an easy way to filter out 12+ potential guys, then I think this would be a great way to meet some of the demand for minor league aged players during the those first few days after free agency re-opens. | ||

IMO this seems like an unnecessary extra. There are already lots of good players sitting on the waiver wire at the start of every season. Updated Saturday, June 20 2015 @ 6:30:12 am PDT |

The more talent there is in the game, the less overall talent spread there is in the game and everyone has a team of superstars (which are therefore average). Steve |

admin Joined: 01/27/2010 Posts: 4980 Administrator | In real life, lots of guys play high school and college ball and never even reach the minor leagues. I not really sure what's wrong with flushing the undrafted prospects at the end of the season. Steve |
