So at some point in this process i thought why dont we have an Inagural draft but then realized we've done way to much changing so cant go to that now. lol. But one thing I did come up with to kind of throw some twists in there ecspecially given that this is a football board is this. There are ALOT of NFL/College Football players that either played minor league baseball or were drafted. I was thinking of maybe trickling a few of them per year into the draft. none would be 1st round worthy or potential superstars but each would have his own niche. Imagine Mike vick patrolling CF but you'd probably have to weigh his low hitting talent vs what his speed/D bring to the table. Just an idea. Lemme know what you guys think. here's a list of potential options

mike vick
Danny kanell
daunte culpepper
tom brady
antwan randle el
javon walker
drew henson
earnest graham
mwelde moore
ricky williams
cedrick benson
quan cosby
matt ware
matt cassell
pat white

there are for sure but I dont want to muddy the water too much. i'll probably narrow this down to 2-3 max per draft if everybody is ok with it
