Rule V Draft Eligibility Issue

strzepeksc · 03-12-2018, 01:16 PM

Has the issue in the rule V draft whereas all the players with a # sign indicating eligibility are put into the draft pool regardless of age and time as a professional restrictions being ignored, and not protected on the 40 man roster ?

is this just an issue with online leagues ? And it is about time that this is fixed to work as in real life ! Please.

thanks

This is only an issue for traded draft picks in online leagues.

We follow the rules as close as we can. The main case where the service years are ignored for the rule 5 draft are players who are released and signed are immediately eligible for the rule 5 draft. If there are other cases, please let us know and we can investigate further. The rules are complicated, but we try our best
