When I pick the second lineman have I put the first one back in the bag or do I set him aside and pick from eight players? I think replacement would matter.
Stop it. There are 9 linemen in the bag. Three of them would be good, six would be bad.
He has a 33% chance of picking a decent or good one the first try or if the bad one goes back in the bag and he has a 38% chance on his second try if the first bad one is left out of the bag.
