Is there a way to draft a player out of position. Topic

I know I can play anyone at any position but is there a way to draft someone say into the SS slot who does not come up when you search?

There might be a way to do it, but it seems like it would be easier to just draft a 200k guy at SS and then draft the guy you want to play at SS in one of the Utility/Optional spots.

That would be easier, however it would not fit into my theme that I am going to own the league with skunk!!

The way to draft out of position is as follows:
-search for the player you want, and right click on the green plus sign by his name
-select copy link or copy shortcut
-paste that into the address window
-it should read javascript:selectplayer(some number,
-change that number to whatever draft spot you want that pick to take
- 1 is C, 2 is 1B, 3 is 2B, 4 is 3B, 5 is SS, 6-8 are the OF spots

Ooh, now I can't wait to find out what that theme is!

Crazy beat me to it, but I was about to post the instructions he posted.  I tried it in the draft center and it works.  I drafted Ichiro at Catcher.
