They trickle out over the season. Perhaps fresh blood doesn’t get added this late in the draft. Certainly wouldn’t advise cutting someone you like. But I can’t bring myself to skip my chance, even if it is extremely small. That said, I cut a P I sort of like to get a look at 10 baddies.

Kinthin Joined: 04/04/2020 Posts: 153 Inactive	Hayseed, I was assuming the same thing as well. If done differently, then why have the percentage remaining? I don’t see how you could say there is a percent of players remaining if you introduce players each week. Do others disagree or have a way to accomplish both, i.e. introduce new players and show percentage remaining?

This is at least part due to the fact that players learn new positions. Its hard to tell if high POT guys have not been drafted because they haven't been allowed through the gate, or because they simply haven't shown up on anyone's board. Either way. There are high POT guys still out there. So I made room.
