It messes up people's planning and queues. They see a skipped pick assume they can get a player they wanted then all of a sudden someone jumps the line and grabs them. If they skipped wouldn't they just go to the back of the line then? Forfeiting a pick or skipping whatever you wanna call it should have some sort of penalty.
I hadn't thought of it this way, but valid points.
If this is the case, you should have lost your pick last year when you were late and Alicg picked.
nope in that case what happens is the example you gave in the NFL, he gets skipped but then picks when he returns.
