	Expansion draft - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The expansion team(s) then are allowed to select players not on the protected lists in a manner somewhat similar to an entry draft.
		This means that the expansion franchise is usually left to choose among players who are over-age, injury prone, failing to develop as the teams had intended, or perhaps so highly compensated that a team wishes to remove them from the payroll.
		For this reason, expansion teams are often noncompetitive in their early years in a league, although the advent of the free agent system has modified this somewhat.

		The expansion team is not bound to the salary cap during the draft.
		However, once the draft is over, any players they've drafted and keep will count toward their cap (it should come in at around $31 million).
		As long as the expansion team waives a player selected in the expansion draft before the first day of the regular season, the player's remaining contract does not count against the team's salary cap.

		However, after two players were drafted from each existing NL club at $75,000 each and one more at $50,000, the existing clubs had to make two more players available at $125,000 apiece.

		(Feb. 13, 2002) -- To say this year's NFL expansion draft is different from the league's first expansion draft in 1960 would be like saying the Patriots were a mild surprise last season.
		The selections came all at once -- unlike this year's expansion draft, in which existing teams can pull a player off the list once another of their players is chosen.
		Forget about the 1960 expansion draft -- the cap situation makes this list much more impressive than the Cleveland Browns' expansion draft choices of just three years ago.
