Hello Everyone, after talking with different GMs and different prospects I have created my final mock for this draft. This certainly isnt the end all be all but i believe that its should atleast somewhat be accurate. Obviously 13/14 have not been decided yet, however those teams seem to be targeting different types players so I think both are interchangable (or atleast will be in this mock), and since the draft offically opens when the ultimus is decided i figured id just wait. There are a few teams who were more helpful then others, and there are maybe three teams who could completely blow up my mock by changing their mind but either way here is how I believe the draft will end up going. There are several teams who are attempting to trade down potentially but im gunna pretend none of that works since
With the 1st Pick in the draft, New Orleans Secondline Select:
1: TE Thomas Passarelli @Tmoney6996
New Orleans have not decided 100% on who they will be taking but have likely narrowed it down too 3 names (all of which will most likely be top 3 picks), Tmoney is a name that keeps coming up for them, and I have decide to go with him as my 1oa pick again, after having him at 1 in my 2nd mock. I believe that he is a great new user and some one whose stock might even be rising with the rumors of him potentially becoming a DSFL GM in the near future according to inside sources. Passarelli is also open to playing a multiple of different positions and i believe he would be a worthy 1oa pick
With the 2nd pick in the draft, the Chicago Butchers will be selecting:
2: DT Ryan McBean @katarn22
Chicago and New Orleans have a same top 3 and I believe that Katarn will be their selection at 2oa as he brings both War Room Experience as a former DSFL GM, Loyalty with his long career with his last player on the Colorado Yeti, as well as filling a position of need with Chicago needing DL to replace some of their older members on the defense. I believe that this pick will make a lot of sense for the Butchers and katarn will be a big part of ensuring they will not be picking this high in the draft for long
With the 3rd pick in the draft the San Jose Sabercats will be selecting:
3: LB A Waffle @HalfEatenOnionBagel
A long time user and a someone who has played in San Jose on pervious players, HalfEatenOnionBagel or HEOB, will be a pretty easy selection for a San Jose team in need of some younger option in the defense. HEOB is one of the oldest users in the ISFL joining all the way back in season 2, and has been a massive part of the league ever since. I believe that A Waffle can be a huge part of the Sabercat defense for seasons to come
With the 4th pick in the Draft the Yellowknife Wraiths will be selecting
4: S Jamie Orion @Piercewise1
With this pick I have YKW selecting Piercewise with this pick. The Wraith told me that they were looking at both DBs and WRs in this draft so I believe that they will aim to take a Safety with this pick. Piercewise will fill a huge position of need for the wraiths and seems like an exciting and team first user that should be a big part of everything the Wraiths are hoping to achieve in their future
With the 5th pick in the draft the Orange County Otters will be selecting:
5: DT Trent Thigpen @GrimmCrackers
The Otters have told me they want to pick someone who can help them on the line, and I know they have Thigpen ranked as one of their top choices so I would not be surprised to see him go to them at this pick. He is someone I have only heard good things about and will likey be able to fil the DT spot which is currently held by an IA player.
With the 6th pick pick in the draft the Austin Copperheads will be selecting:
6: S Scott Junior @JoeSteel
The Copperheads were the only team i was not really able to get any info from their GMs however i did hear that DBs were something they considered their biggest need and thats where someone like Scott Junior would come in and be a great pick for the organization and could help usher in a new era of Copperhead Football
With the 7th Pick in the draft the Sarasota Sailfish will be selecting:
7: WR Orange Julius @OrangeJulius
The Sailfish mentioned that DBs were a major need for them, however they did mention that the remaining WRs on the board could be too tempting to pass on, with the London and Sarasota connection there, it would not be surprising to me to see them select a user who potentially could be a future london GM Alegidedly, and he could fill a roll in the sailfish offense. Orange Julius once spent 7 strait days on DDSPF and clearly would be an elite pick here
With the 8th pick in the draft the Berlin Fire Salamanders will be selecting:
8: QB Tua TurnDaBallOva @SomeSay...
The Fire Salamanders desprately need a QB, and from what i understand Somesay is their prefered choice at the position. From talking to other teams I have been led to believe that he is the most likely QB to go in the first and potentially would be select in the first by a few different teams. So i think the Fire Salamanders would be wise to ensure that they get the Quarterback that they want. Somesay was a long time Berlin player and had spent time on berlin on two different players so I am sure berlin would love to bring him back
With the 9th of the draft the Colorado Yeti will be selecting:
9: WR Jordan Bamford @Bamford13
For most this ive been hearing that the Yeti want to figure out a solution at RB, however recently they seemed to have figured out a different solution at that positions so are now looking at other spots. They mentioned wanting another passing target as a possibility at this pick, and with potential mutual interest from Bamford, i could see this as a great pick for the Yeti if they do choose to go this way. Bamford is an exciting new user and could see him being a massive part of the yeti culture
With the 10th pick in the draft the Chicago Butchers (Via Hon) will be selecting:
10: LB Pete Moss @Menace0528
Blorgl
With the 11th pick in the draft the Arizona Outlaws will be selecting:
11: LB Thor Dangerson @homercrates
The Outlaws mentioned they want to improve at defense, and I think Dangerson is a very good user, who i was a little surprised to not have more hype, but he is a great new user who has been very involved in the community and i could see him being a huge pick for whoever picks him in the draft. Arizona has a incoming need at LB with McTurtle getting hit hard with regressionm and Dangerson could slot in pretty easily at htis pick
With the 12th pick in the draft the Cape Town Crash will be selecting
12: LB Joey Battle @captainsb
CTC also mentioned that Linebacker would be a big need for them in this draft, but mentioned they are still debating on taking a Quarterback or not. But if they do opt to go LB, Joey Battle is a pretty excelent choice, a pretty big deal over in the PBE, were he went 1oa in his draft over there and is curently in charge of a minors team, Captainsb is a very postive and fun user so im sure he would fit in well in any team he is drafted too
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------13/14th Line---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
With the 13th or 14th pick in the draft the Baltimore Hawks will be selecting
13/14: OL Carter Goad @caleb.grim
The Hawks mentioned that while they need a QB they are comfortable with rolling the dice at QB til the 2nd round, and want to focus on other positions. With Goad being open to a potential position swap and being one of the elite players left i see them snagging him up and figuring out how he would fit on a already stacked baltimore team, the Hawks will be thrilled to have landed this user at this pick
With the 13th or 14th pick in the draft the Chicago Butchers(Via New York) will be selecting:
13/14: RB Maple Dogwood @dogwoodmaple
The Butchers mentioned that they would likely wait til this pick to pick an offensive player, and that Dogwood was likely one of the players highest on their board in that regard, Dogwood is an amazing user who spent his entire career with the Silverbacks on his last player, and was always an positive and fun presence and will fill a offensive hole for the Butchers!
well this is my final mock for this season, I am hoping that i got alot of these picks right but like with any mock draft my info is at the mercy of my sources so if anything is wrong here blame the teams who have fed me lies. This was a lot of fun and i hope to do a few more in future seasons, this was a good draft with alot of exciting new users and pretty excelent recreates so there are certainly a bunch of names who may go in the first instead of who was selected in this mock. Thanks to all the GMs who were willing to give me a little info to see what your war rooms were thinking, and hope by doing this i helped you guys atleast come up with a general idea of what users will be avaible at ur picks
