Team Needs
First, I looked at all the players likely to be called up to the ISFL or those who are inactive before evaluating each team's needs in the draft.
Bondi Beach Buccaneers
QB / CB / S - With Thor likely being called up the fill the boots of the retiring Craig Jerrith IV Bondi Beach has a major spot to fill. With a good group of offensive weapons managing to draft a good QB will be of major importance to continue their rise and try to reach the playoffs in the next few seasons. Additionally, with all of Bondi's DBs being inactive this leaves them with a void in their defense to fill.
Dallas Birddogs
LB / CB - Dallas' offense is set to continue putting up points on other teams at their will with no major losses however if they're going to keep up with their winning ways they will need to fill some spots in the defense. With Joey Battle as their only LB and likely to be called up the Birddogs will need to find their new signal caller in the upcoming draft. Additionally at almost 600 TPE Gajeel Redfox is a surefire call-up and someone Dallas will surely be looking to replace to prevent some of the DSFL's finest Wide Receivers.
Kansas City Coyotes
OL / DL - Kansas City seems to be in luck from my point of view, they aren't set to lose many pieces other than one inactive DE. This leaves them with the freedom to draft any great users they want or fill up both sides of the line which is usually a luxury teams can't afford.
London Royals
RB / TE / DL - With Aaron Ford leading their backfield at only 120 TPE managing to draft a top tier Running Back could enable London to expand their offensive range rather than the current heaving pass focus. Additionally, with Waffle likely being called up this leaves London with 1 true pass catcher so if they look to continue to run their air raid attack they'll need to find a new WR. TE to continue the legacy.
Minnesota Grey Ducks
QB / RB / WR - With Tuna set to be called up to take over from St Christmas Minnesota will need to replace the major hole in their offense however with an overall weak offense if Swaggert is also called up Minnesota will need to sure up their offensive weapons and try to find a gem of a weapon that their rookie Qb can rely on.
Norfolk Seawolves
WR / LB / CB - Ziegler had a solid season as a rookie QB however if they are to continue to improve and lead Norfolk to greatness they'll need to find another WR in the draft to replace the likely call-up of Diego Lopez to supplement Benny Hanna and eventually take over as WR1. On the other side of the ball, Norfolk has no Linebackers / Cornerbacks over 50 TPE on their roster which has led to their league-worse Defense which they'll need to improve ASAP.
Portland Pythons
WR / LB / CB - Currently Portland seems set to enter S46 with the smallest roster in the DSFL so they'll need to maximise every pick they have. With their only WR being inactive Portland will need to make finding their new WR1 a priority if they want Van Goff to continue improving off of their rookie season. On the other side of the ball, the Xavier brothers have both gone IA leaving major holes in the defense with only 1 good safety on the roster. Portland will need to find as many later-round gems as they can to rebuild their roster.
Tijuana Luchadores
QB - Current reigning champions and likely to win another Ultimini this season Tijuana will be looking to replace Breezy as they age out of the DSFL and find the next dominant QB. With a dominant defense not looking to lose any significant pieces Tijuana has the freedom of the draft to find any great users who they believe will improve their team.
Draft
Round 1
1st Overall
LB - SwankyPants31 - K.C. Gordon
Norfolk needed to find a new signal caller to lot straight into defense and Gordon fits the bill perfectly. SwankyPants is a low-risk pick who'll earn right away and help to turn around Norfolk.
2nd Overall
DE - oknom - Dunkler Sowerwine
oknom becomes the first new user to be selected. oknom looks like a promising new user so London snags them at the 2 spot, London hopes they'll continue to learn the league and become a force on the defensive line.
3rd Overall
WR - Baron - María Teresa de la Rosa
At 3rd overall Minnesota drafts a very well-known user in Baron. A very reliable earner Baron will be able to help provide whoever Minnesota drafts at QB a very good WR2 to target and future WR1 to rely on.
4th Overall
S - bechtudo - Eric Beaty jr.
Bondi Beach takes another recreate in bechtudo. Bondi desperately needs a DB and Eric Beaty jr will hopefully be that guy to help out the passing defense. bechtudo also has a healthy amount in the bank and should become a reliable earner and hopefully stay in the DSFL for a couple of seasons.
5th Overall
DE - Blix900 - Luke Laraque
Portland takes another promising new user in Blix. Although not in a position of priority for Portland they could still do with someone to help out on the defensive Line. Additionally, teams love to get themselves promising new users and in a class that currently lacks new users Portland snags one for themselves.
6th Overall
LB - ThunderTitan82 - Rush Hardman
Dallas finds the new heart of their defense with Rush Hardman. A great user and legendary graphics maker Titan will surely earn at a great rate and be a prominent user the locker room.
7th Overall
OL - Drip - McDripsen McDropsen
Kansas City has the luxury of having very few needs so they take advantage of that by selecting McDripsen McDropsen. Grabbing themselves a new LT will just make the run game that bit better and ensure that their QB keeps on their feet.
8th Overall
QB - Z-Whiz - Puddles O’Duck
Tijuana takes Puddles O'Duck as the first QB off the board. Moving on from Breezy that draft Puddles to continue the trend of having a pure passing QB to match up well with their offensive core.
Round 2
9th Overall
WR - jadda123876 - Jonathan Irons
With the 9th pick, Norfolk selects Jonathan Irons. Jadda is another new user so Norfolk makes sure to grab them early hoping they'll become an active LR member and good earner.
10th Overall
RB - Gage2 - Julian Rose
At 10th overall London had slim pickings for their positions of need so selected Julian Rose. Gage is a solid earner and can hopefully quickly become London's RB1 and lead their backfield for the next few seasons.
11th Overall
QB - Pat - Elijah Dyson
Minnesota selects their next QB to lead the team in Elijah Dyson. Everyone is well aware of who Pat is so Minnesota ensure they snag a great user to have in the locker room for the next few seasons.
12th Overall
QB - ImSatanJunior - Bugs
With only 1 QB left on the board Bondi Beach finally snags their QB in Bugs. After a successful 8-6 season where Thor switched to scrambler, Bondi Beach hopes to replicate that success by drafting another running QB.
13th Overall
LB - Agent Chaos - Upceti Spaghetti
With the 13th pick, Portland grabs themselves Upceti Spaghetti. With Portland's other needs not being on the board, they elected to select an LB complementing their earlier selection. Agent Chaos will certainly hope that their player will bring Chaos to opposing offenses.
14th Overall
S - Bunny - Bunny
With the 14th pick, Dallas fills their other position of need by drafting Bunny. A relatively quiet user Bunny will steadily earn for Dallas and hopefully bring success in the future to Dallas.
15th Overall
DE - TheNC206 - Ranch-Pizza Pizza-Man
With other teams having to draft other positions of need Kansas City grabs a great DE and user in NC. Having now drafted a player on both lines Kansas City will hope this can push them on to winning the Ultimini.
16th Overall
LB - Vulfzilla - Huge Yakman
Tijuana have the 16th pick and the luxury of selecting whoever they want and select Huge Yakman. With how good Tijuana's defense already is adding another quality LB will only solid that and help to start what Tijuana hope will become a mini dynasty.
