I Confirm

I'm on deck, and my pick is definitely for sale. I will be on around 1:00 tomorrow and will likely deal it for the best offer.

I've been away and checking in on my phone, but havn't been able to do much of anything for looking guys up. I'm willing to trade down in the next 10 or so if someone sends any reasonable offer... If not I'll wake up bright and early and make my pick.

Jack Morris P

This player is not on the original list of players available to draft.  This pick raises several questions, such as whether there are other good players eligible, how much time it will take 26 of us to find those eligible players who are not yet on the available list, and whether Morris would have been picked earlier if he had been seen on the available list.  My humble opinion is that we all should be held to the originally published list, in honor of our commissioner's efforts, or that list should be amended to find all eligble players before the draft is restarted.

I'm ready to go, but since abf is only going to be on in a few hours and the above was posted maybe I'll hold off for a bit... Because it's so early, and probably a lot of people don't even look at the available list, I'm ok with Morris being taken, but there probably should be some ruling.

Im ok.either way, I dont use that list to find players, I use it to confirm that the players on my list are available. But if someone feels strongly about it then I would support any resolution.

I'm ok with Morris....we need to do our own research

I can't wait for the clocked picks to start tomorrow....

Guys, I'm sorry about Morris.  He was on the original list i had in my spreadsheet, i dont know why it didnt copy.  I'm going to research now to see if i missed anyone else.

I'm going to send a sitemail now to everyone to vote on what we should do with Morris. 

Sorry again, not sure how i messed him up.

ok, i had rapid fire in the responses...everyone so far has voted to allow the morris pick (and anyone else who may have been missed).  So I think that is best.  I will still try to update the lists for any other missed players, but for drafting purposes, know that if they have an eligible 1984 season, they may be drafted.

Sorry, at work on my phone...cannot bold or sitemail right now

I didn't know Morris wasn't on the available players list, wasn't trying to pull a fast one or anyything.  I don't think a lot of owners would use the players list for a 1st round pick, they use the database.  To me it is cut and dry, if he has a WIS season in 1984, he is eligible to be drafted whether he is on the players list or not.  If he's not on the list, it just means it was an oversight, honest mistake by the commish, which can happen.  Thanks for voting guys and Good Luck.
