Can a baseball team trade their draft picks?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Draft picks cannot be traded. In addition, a player once drafted cannot be traded until 1 year to the day after signing. This explains a lot of times when a player is traded for a player to be named later, (Jeremy Bonderman was a player to be named later in the Jeff Weaver trade in 2003 because Bonderman signed on August 2, 2002 but Weaver was traded on July 6, 2003 so Oakland had to wait until August 2, 2003 to trade him so he was called a player to be named later)

Carolina just did it this past year taking Cam Newton in the first round after taking Jimmy Clausen in the 2nd round last year.....Carolina didn't have a first round pick in the 2010 draft so in essence it was pretty much the same value.

What is Michael Vicks favorite color?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Its actually a very pale black, he enjoys this because when he looks at this pale black it reminds him of the coal Santa would always get him for Christmas, but unfortunately he just found out his father was pretending to be said Santa and that Santa never actually came to visit him. Because of this his seemingly favourite colour (being a very pale black) has now turned into a very dark white all due to the fact that Michael wants to start a new life with this new favourite colour being the all too well known, very dark white.

Denver has 6 picks in the 2011 draft. They have 1 first round, 2 second round, 1 third round, 1 sixth round, and 1 seventh round. 4 of their picks will be determined by Denver's final record for the season. One second round pick will be determined by Miami's final season record, and their sixth round pick will be determined by New England's final season record.

How are ties broken regarding NFL Draft position?

User Avatar

Asked by Herb123

In the standings, a tie counts as half a win and half a loss. Through 10 games of the 2008 season, the Philadelphia Eagles record is 5-5-1. Their winning percentage is .550. This is the same as having a record of 5.5 wins and 4.5 losses (10 games divided into 5.5 wins is .550). The Cinicinnati Bengals record is 1-9-1 and their winning percentage is .136. This is the same as 1.5 wins and 9.5 losses (11 games divided into 1.5 wins is .136).

Who was the number 1 pick in the 2008 NFL draft?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The Miami Dolphins picked Jake Long, an OT out of the University of Michigan with the first pick in the 2008 NFL Draft.

Here is a quick bio from draft day from ESPN.com:

Jake Long's not the best overall player on the board, but the Dolphins needed a left tackle. Some people say he's a better fit on the right side, but we disagree. He's fundamentally sound enough in pass protection to be a capable blind-side protector from Day 1, and while he's certainly not as athletic as Joe Thomas -- Cleveland's first-round pick a year ago -- Long is a better run blocker than Thomas was coming out of college. Long can play a similar role to the one Jumbo Elliot played with Bill Parcells with the Giants in the 1980s.
