Protected Players List & Postseason Rosters

Here's an attempt to kill two birds with one stone, or in this case, a post. I'll begin with the official protected players list, which covers any player that achieved top-32 (best 25%) status in either sport. An additional list of players that did not earn protection but will be retained by their teams will accompany the cuts list after the postseason, when such things are made official. Following this post, there should be a draft order. Please note that the draft is conducted in four rounds, and the order remains constant through the rounds. Not all teams are required to make picks if they retain their personnel in full from season to season. The list merely serves as an order of picks, should a team need to fill a roster slot.

This post can also be used as a reference during the playoff series, as I will be using it to figure out which players are competing at a given time. Next post is the draft order, as a preliminary outline of how the draft will go. Included in that post will also be a list of the players sent as representatives of the Clubs as testers in the Research and Development Camp.
