Hello... to Mr. BBW, J-Pav, or anyone who can answer... a general question that I as a newer player don't know the answer to. I am assuming that , having done these drafts before, we have a solution for this, but I don't want to mess anything up.
I know we are to put our 3 players in the final 3 spots...
I am assuming you guys have dealt with this before, but depending on the cost of those players and how much budget is left when we get to players 23,24,25 is there a concern that team's either won't have enough money for those players and they will be passed over for another player?
Beyond that, my understanding is that in the event a player of choice isn't available, that the AI will go for the next highest player at that position. I am perhaps wrong in this understanding... But let's take Freddie Freeman and DJ Lam (both taken in our 3 round draft and listed 1 and 3 on potentially. Those players would be ranked in the 23-25 range by the teams that drafted them.
What happens if, for example, I list #7 ranked1b Dominic Smith on my draft list and rank him 10th...What occurs if another team has him ranked higher and gets him first? I believe the AI then go to the next highest 1b, which would be Freeman...
Am I interpreting that correctly? If that happens, it could seriously mess up waivers-because of roster minimums, we can't just drop these guys pre-waivers...
Any guidance on this would be appreciated.
Thank you.
