DRAFT RESULTS...
Are you ready for some (make believe) football?
...and the first shocker of the year has already dropped.
The banter brigade has the first pick of the draft, but it was the Who Dat Nation who came out of the draft with the best looking team, predicted to win the championship this year.
But it was the fifth pick of the draft that shocked everyone. The Australian Taipans, the defending champions, selected....Brandon Aiyuk (WR)...and he wasn't even the best wide receiver.
We learned after the draft that the Taipans were on the clock for their first pick, expecting to take a RB. They were lining up their subsequent picks when they placed Aiyuk in the cue for their third pick...and inadvertently selected Aiyuk as their first pick. It was all over for the season as far as the Taipans were concerned, unable to recover with positional players, forced to forgo probably a top tier RB and and top tier WR. While they did recover to select a top tier QB, their draft was already looking like a dogs breakfast. On the draft results, the Taipans, the Associated Subsim Writers (ASW) are predicted to only win three (3) games this year - if they're lucky.
The season kicks off next Thursday and we'll be there at all the grounds as we cover every error committed both on an off the field.
