Question[edit]

Maybe I didn't understand the "Rules of the Draft" correctly, but how did the Texans get three players from the NY Jets if after the second pick a team pulls back the remaining two players on its list? Mattlore (talk) 05:31, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The rules only say that they pull back the remaining players, not that they had to. The Jets and Ravens were both known to be cash-strapped, and they wanted to get rid of their listed players.--User:2008Olympian_chitchat^seemywork 22:51, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Could that information be added to the article somehow?Mattlore (talk) 09:08, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- It has been. If this does or does not get the article to your satisfaction, then please participate in the feature-list candidacy discussion linked above.--User:2008Olympian_chitchat^seemywork 18:45, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Logo[edit]

This logo is specifically for this draft and no other. It is not used on any other article, it is unique to this one and therefore does not fail the WP:NFCC criteria. Its use was just today approved by Masem in the discussion ongoing at WP:NFCC and placed by that admin today.--2008Olympian^chitchat 05:35, 13 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

List of players to choose from?[edit]

I was reading this article, and I was wondering if it ever had a complete list of all players available to be drafted. I noticed that one of the references had such a list ([1]). Could someone please add this to the article? Thanks! If you have any questions, please contact me at my talk page. Ian Manka 10:47, 6 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
