(1.5x draft media - 2,592 words)
Welcome to my ISFL Mock Draft! This was a combination of guessing, TPE, and team needs. I also relied on the TPE tracker for callups, so if some of the write-up stuff is wrong, that's probably why. And there are no trades and no position changes.
ROUND ONE
1. Berlin Fire Salamanders - DE Ernest Lover @Mojojojo
2. New York Silverbacks - RB Cobra Kai @OrbitingDeath
3. Baltimore Hawks - S Dogwood Maple
4. Yellowknife Wraiths - LB BamBam McMullet @manicmav36
5. New Orleans Second Line - S Derek Wildstar @Legally_Blind_Gamer
6. Philadelphia Liberty - QB Ryan Negs @"Ryan Negs"
7. Honolulu Hahalua - WR Raphael Delacour @37thchamber
8. Chicago Butchers - LB Leonard Taylor @Tayjay
9. Arizona Outlaws - OL Alexander Franklin @Hordle
10. Sarasota Sailfish - RB Mr. Forty-Two @C9Van
11. Chicago Butchers - S Moe Skeeter @TheDude83
12. Orange County Otters - LB Big Slammu @moonlight
13. Colorado Yeti - WR Tugg Speedman @"zakkyjohns"
14. San Jose SaberCats - WR Mario Messi @KingSean

Some quick thoughts:
- I’m sure I’ll have egg on my face in about 5 hours, but I love the Ernest Lover pick to Berlin. Feel good about that one.
- Linebackers will be the ones to jack everybody’s mocks up, mine included. There are just too many high TPE, high earning, active linebackers to accurately mock everywhere. I could see any of the four I have in the first round going in the top three.
- Only one offensive lineman in the first, but I think it’s a good overall need pick for Arizona.
- Only one quarterback in the first and like I said in the writeup, it’s going to come down to solely a matter of preference. I definitely see Philly taking a QB and they can’t go wrong with Negs and LBJ.
- I’m 0% confident with my safety picks. Moe Skeeter and Derek Wildstar could easily go #3 to Baltimore and it wouldn’t surprise me one bit if all of us safeties get picked early or drop to the second round.
- Lastly, I think the story of this draft will be recreates vs. new creates. I could see some recreates going higher than I’ve mocked them, which absolutely makes sense. Known quantities with histories around the league and that’s attractive to franchises.
