Notable undrafted players[edit]

I removed several entries from the Notable Undrafted Players entry, because they were not actually eligible for the draft in 1976. For example, Vince Papale was an eligible undrafted in 1969. I suspect this list was computer generated, selecting notable 1976 rookies who were never drafted, regardless of what year they would have been eligible. I haven't looked, but this error probably exists with other years. 149.76.133.153 (talk) 11:58, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
