We are at the rule 5 draft.

A team waived/DFA'd 4 players to make room to protect other players on their 40 man roster. Neither their waiver period or DFA periods have expired. They were all waived/DFA'd at the same time. They all show as irrevocable waivers.

All 4 players show on their 'profile'-->'Contract & Status' page that they should be Rule 5 eligible.

But only 1 of the 4 are actually showing up in the Rule 5 draft pool.

Question is; should all/none of these players be in the rule 5 pool? Why is only one of the players actually in the draft pool?

Am I missing something simple or is something odd going on?
