I will be attempting to analyze each team’s situation in order to identify the best player in this year’s draft. Additionally, I will take a hard look at how this player can impact the team for the next few years, providing insight into their potential growth at an organizational level.
Pick #1 (Kansas City Coyotes)
The Kansas City Coyotes finished at the bottom of the league this year, proving that what they need more than anything is a franchise cornerstone on offense from which to build. The prospect bowl was a dismal performance for most QBs this year, but Troy Abed (QB, Kiwi’s) had some flashes of brilliance en route to a 1-5 record in the prospect bowl. His debut as the shotcaller for the Kiwi’s showed that he really has what it takes to be the next leader of the Kansas City offense. He ended his first game with a completion percentage just under 30 percent (7 of 30) with two interceptions and no touchdowns. Truly a game to remember, and with that, cemented himself as the #1 pick in this year’s DSFL draft.
Pick #2 (Tijuana Luchadores)
Tijuana, unlike Kansas City, has their QB of the future, what they really need is some play makers on that offense. The Luchadores will likely look to Wide Receiver with the #2 overall pick. Someone that really stood out in the Prospect Bowl games was Sam the Onion Man. Sam lead all receivers in touchdowns and receptions in this year’s prospect bowl games, proving his status as an elite receiver. His playmaking ability combined with his elite speed would make him an awesome deep threat for the Luchadores to leverage in their passing game, ultimately opening a lot of doors for the Offensive Coordinator to work some magic.
Pick #3 (Minnesota Grey Ducks)
The Minnesota Grey Ducks need a lot of support on offense as well. Most of my colleagues expect the Grey Ducks to take the first Offensive Lineman off the Board, or take Chunt the Badger at Wide Receiver. I think differently, I believe the Grey Ducks are looking for some life in their offense, someone that can make a big play when they need it. Aleksander Vasiliev (RB, Kiwi’s) provides exactly that. His electrifying performance in the Prospect Bowl games highlights just how explosive he can be, even with the limited offensive line. He is serviceable in the passing game, and his blocking may need a little work, but his patience in the running game and his ability to explode through gaps provides some entertaining big plays, just what the Grey Ducks need in order to take that next step.
Pick #4 (Dallas Birddogs)
The Birddogs have the easiest choice of the draft – they don’t have a clear need, they just got unlucky with some injuries this year. This pick provides them with the opportunity to shore up their lackluster Defensive Backs, while at the same time picking up the (without a doubt) the best player in this year’s draft, Remus Roman. Remus was clearly the better twin out of Purdue’s elite defense, carrying the Boilermakers to the FBS Championship on his incredibly muscled, toned, sexy, sweaty back. If the Birddogs don’t take Remus here, they deserve to be relegated to the Pac-10 because they don’t belong in the pro-leagues.
Pick #5 (Norfolk Seawolves)
Norfolk is then left with second hand Remus Roman, Romulus Roman. Nothing much can be said here, he’s a strong player, just no where near as gifted, handsome, muscled, toned, and sexy as his identical twin brother Remus Roman. A forgetful pick, but he may be serviceable in the right situation.
Pick #6 (London Royals)
The Royals will likely target a Linebacker here, and it’s a toss up between Gritt Gurdur and Xavier Walls for me. I think they will go 6-7 in this years draft, so it’s really about what you want out of your linebacker. Personally, I think they go with Power Rusher Gritt Gurdur. He’s a playmaker with smoldering intensity that can inspire a defense to play harder. His aggressiveness can come back to bite him with a few unsportsmanlike penalties on occasion, but it pays off when he gets 3-4 sacks in a game with a forced fumble. His best role is as a pass rusher, but he is more than capable in the passing game as well, able to cover Slot Receivers and Tight Ends really well. He may need some time to get used to the speed of receivers in the DSFL, but his work ethic and intensity make me sure that he will get up to speed quickly.
Pick #7 (Portland Pythons)
By default, as I am sure you imagined, Xavier Walls will fall to Portland, making reigning GM of the Year RESouthpaw look like a genius. Xavier brings a level of professionalism that the Pythons will appreciate. He is a speed rusher, but is more than capable in the passing game as well, evidenced by his several pass defenses in the Prospect Bowl games. I think Xavier has a significant off field bonus to him as well – outside of QBs you rarely see a rookie get Captain honors on their team, but I think Xavier is one of the exceptions. Xavier was Defensive captain for the Wisconsin Badgers all 3 years he was on the team. This reporter spoke with Wisconsin’s Head Coach Aaron Rodgers who spoke at length about Walls’ leadership ability.
Pick #8 (Bondi Beach Buccaneers)
The Bondi Beach Buccaneers will wrap up the first round by adding to their already strong roster, looking to build on their defensive line should be the #1 priority for them, as it appears to be their only shortcoming. Gyles Marrett is the strongest option at Defensive End. His Prospect Bowl appearance was impressive, leading the charge in terms of Sacks and Tackles for Loss. He has raw power and may need a year or two to develop more moves aside from his patented bull rush, but with a couple more tools in his belt he could make a significant professional impact for years to come.
The first few picks are teams that have needs and need to fill them quickly – I honestly think this is a defensive stacked draft, and those names that will be remembered for decades after they retire are in the bottom of that first round. (1062 words)
