The following 'celebrities' have died this year, but
weren’t picked by any team this year. However, they have all been chosen by
teams in previous years. Hopefully by listing them here, it will alert players
to non-eligible picks & to give those who are now gone their brief moment
of fame on this site. The other reason for listing them here is that the teams
who chose them can rue their bad luck or decisions!!
