The problem is the wording.

While it says that a team that declines can not be chosen again by anyone and is basically out of the competition, it is understood that if team 1 picks team 5 and they decline, then team 5 can not be chosen by anyone else (re: teams 2-4), but that are still eligible to choose their 2 partner teams since they are a top 8 still and have the right to choose teams.

While all teams under 8 are out of being a picked team unless they move up in the rankings due to a 1-8 intra team picking system in the first round selections...

Team 9 denies, but moves into the 8 position, then they now have the right that the original top 8 teams have acquired by being a top 8 team and they can now choose 2 other teams.
