I have a "fantasy" league with all time great players from all eras.

Santa brought me a book about the great 1924 Baseball season and I got the names of 50 great players from that year that I thought I could use in my league like Kiki Cuyler, Joe Hauser, Sam Rice, Ross Youngs, etc.

I imported each player individually at the start of his baseball career so I chose the "remaining years of career" base potential ratings option. I also had the "import player into draft pool" option checked.

I've played two years in the game, but I can't find the names of any of the players in the draft pool, the Rule 5 draft pool. They're in the "Free Agent" Pool, but there is no option to "offer a contract" to them.

What did I do wrong? What setting should I use the allow these players to appear in a draft pool or as a free agent that can be signed?

Thanks for any suggestions. Happy New Year!

Or should I just re-import the players over again and uncheck the "import player into draft pool?"
