The only foreign born players eligible for the draft are Canadians and Puerto Ricans

After Toman goes we’ll have the 5 Johnson said were “gone”. Now the real fun begins.

The frick are you talking about? I stated that Melendez getting selected at #43 showed how high his value was.

There is a separate international draft.

Eta- No there isn’t. Idea was floated but never came to be.

Yes, they aren’t part of the draft. They’re signed directly with a separate pool, signing periods, etc.

I don’t know why people get their panties in a wad. Jay said there are 5 that are no way going to be on campus and another 5 or 6 who are 50/50. We are not even to the 50/50 guys yet.

Ha! He needs to go down to south Louisiana for 3 or 4 years and put on some weight with some good ol' Cajun cooking and then go pro.

Because it’s fun. And bourbon. Lol

I’m one that stays realistic but like to drink some bourbon and as the draft goes on I talk myself into it. I agree though. Lots of 50/50 players left when it gets fun.
