Prompt Wrote:Written Option: The new season brings in fresh faces for both the NSFL and DSFL. Write how the new additions to your team will help you compete for a championship this year. Did you lure in a key free agent, or perhaps a few new pieces from the draft?
Well naturally the DSFL, given its nature as the intermediate step between college and the big leagues, is wildly in flux year-to-year. The vast majority of the Buccaneers weren't here in the last season and I suspect many won't be here next year either. DSFL turnover is hard to predict given the variable nature of how many players out of college each season go on to join the professional leagues. For the buccs, though, we have 52 players officially on the roster and 38 of those are new to the team in this draft. We naturally appreciate the veteran leadership from those who have been here before, but I like to think that my class will be an important part in trying to bring a championship to Myrtle Beach. To be fair, though, while I like to have faith in my draft class, every other team has similarly seen a huge influx of new talent and so the competition will be fierce in the DSFL this year. Given especially the two expansion teams, it might be fair to say that our veterans are actually the central building blocks in our efforts to make it back to the championship game. Without the inspired play of Dax Frost, Rotticus Scott, and other vets we would have a much more difficult go at getting back to the championship game. This early in the season we of course can't guarantee that we'll get back there, but I have confidence that the Buccs' DSFL draft class has the tools to get back there. Of course, being a member of said draft class, I'm quite biased, but I know that one player isn't enough to build a team. I have faith in the efforts of my teammates and believe that we'll have a good go at it this year.
