If a million consecutive picks are going to be made, mind sending a PM when I am on the clock? I last checked the draft yesterday morning and saw that there were more than 5 picks ahead of me. Now I check again and not only was I autodrafted, but there have been a million picks after me. Thanks.

On a separate note TOR asks that if we ever lose another pick and are autodrafted for to pick only MIs or Cs. Thanks.

Daniel, if you have a player that you want and that's not picked, feel free to change your pick.

TB is up

We are also running out of top 200 players, I'd assume those on autopicks will forfeit rest of the picks. Please let me know if this is not the case.

Last year we started over with the amateur draft picks who were not in the top 200 rankings.

Tampa Bay selects:
Johnny Eierman (no bonus)

If he's already been selected for some reason, feel free to auto pick my selection with next best available having no bonus.

Can you expand on this? Are players not on the top 200 who drafted the highest in real life gets autopicked?

The other issue is that some teams, e.g., SD, are at the EDR player limit.

Correct, start with the #1 draft pick and go down the list.  Any player not already drafted in FGM will be autopicked in that order if they signed a contract.  Unsigned players in the top 200 BA ranking may still be autopicked for teams having salary cap space.

Teams that are at the EDR roster limit will be skipped and may pick later if they drop someone from their EDR.
