Jumping ahead when conflict is impossible is now allowed

Thanks to everyone for being so efficient and enthusiastic this first couple of rounds. I have time to follow the draft closely and update regularly so there is no reason that jumping ahead should be discouraged. Keep in mind that it will be at your own risk and if anyone who has been jumped can legally roster the player you jumped ahead to select can roster them, they will have the right to claim that player.

The two owners ahead of me are taking modern players.

dippedncrack will probably be in the same division as me, and he's already drafted two all-time great starting pitchers (Joss and Mathewson). I'm going to do the same.
Mordecai Brown

Ditto

Claude Hendrix

Wow, these hitting and pitching duos are insane. What a division there.

I can safely pick here. Didn't think he would make it back to me, so a change of plans.

Arky Vaughn SS

A word of caution - this is where the grey area on skipping picks is -

Although it may be unlikely that NebHusker would go in the direction where he would draft Arky Vaughan in this spot, it is not impossible to have a 25 consecutive year team with both a useable Koufax and Vaughan.

Will not be able to make this official until NebHusker picks

Update: NebHusker just took Tiant so the Arky Vaughan pick is confirmed. Just want to leave this example up, however

ok. I would strongly urge him to use 1955-59 Koufax then :-).

Oh, I checked Koufax for 55-59. Not useable. Just having some fun here. I get your point.

Positional scarcity makes this guy a must have for me:

Hughie Jennings, shortstop.
