(S2) - Weekend PT #1 - Draft Prep

[deadendpath27]

As GMs of the newly founded franchise Las Vegas Legion, you'd have to be asking yourself what your priorities are for matching up with powerhouses Arizona and Orange County. First you have to look at the pieces lost by these teams and how that could affect their overall performance.

Also, if I'm GM in Las Vegas, I most importantly want to secure a playoff berth immediately. The hype surrounding a Las Vegas expansion is useless if the team is not successful. This corroborates with my theory of why the NFL Raiders waited until they were a playoff team to get serious about relocation. A playoff team in Las Vegas will rake in the money and endorsement deals.

So if I'm GM, I naturally wanna be competing with the best team in the conference, Arizona. If I counter Arizona's offense (which I believe has downgraded in the off season) with a strong 4 man pass rush complemented by speedy DBs and LBs for run support, we may be able to keep the ball out of their hands on offense and force costly turnovers which could set up easy drives. The key to beating Arizona's offense is putting pressure on the quarterback, as they often have relied on long passes to stretch the field. I wanna grab the best pass rushing DEs I can in the draft. I want these DEs to be focusing solely on speed and strength early in their career. DE and OL are the two positions I would build my entire team around, and wouldn't focus entirely on filling every position, rather just the important positions for S2.
