There are a number of factors that are considered in the process of an appeal.
- Is there an error in the evaluation calculations that compromises the placement of the player subject of an appeal.
- Was there an illness, injury, health concern that impacted the player’s performance in evaluations and was that taken into consideration in the evaluation and in a manner consistent with the Evaluation process.
- The position of the player in relation to the desired team. For example, is the player next on the depth chart in terms of players being placed on a particular team?
