create draft pool of players born in a particular state

I want to create an 8 team league where only players born in New Jersey are eligible. is there a way to filter this for an all-time NJ born player draft (there have been 433 major league players who were born in NJ). thanks and happy holidays

Since you'd be using historical players, you could potentially create a CSV file using the player IDs for those 433 players and use that to mass-import players into your league. You would probably have to create the league first, then delete all the players, erase all history, then import the players you want and run an inaugural draft. There should be threads that discuss this importation technique if you do an appropriate search on the forums.
