So, instead of a player I’m going to talk about a pick in general. The #1 overall draft pick has produced more busts than not, as just about every first pick has underperformed for their team. Season 1 we have the infamous JJ Reigns, he forgot more than you’ll ever know about the sim and forgot about this league faster than you will too, running for the hills after pioneering a rival league. Then we have S2 1oa in Dermot Lavelle, while he has had a solid career in the NSFL so far, there have been a lot more value picks from the S2 draft, and he has never really taken the claim of best CB in the league despite the lofty expectations that were surrounding him. Another part of S2 was the expansion draft, and the Legion took Stanislaw Maddox with the first pick. This guy quickly went inactive and has been nothing more than a CB3 for whatever team he ends up on. Compare this to the next selection in the expansion draft, Vikian Marmeladov, who has been a standout safety for the Liberty and what some would consider the top safety in the league. Next, we have S3 first overall Antonio Sandoval, the Yeti jumped to 1oa in this draft in an effort to secure their anchor on the line in Sandoval, and not shortly after the league announced OL bots that made OL meaningless as a position. He switched to DL and has never really established himself as a top player on the defensive line. The S4 first pick is the one who is the exception to me so far, Noah Goodson has been a solid LB, and has been a piece to build around for defenses, although he hasn’t elevated to top LB yet with grizzled veterans still holding that title.
S5, S6, and S7 seem a bit too early to tell, but all signs point to Crush being a massive reach, but it is not his fault at all. The Yeti suffered from poor QB play during his whole career so far and he has not been able to elevate past those problems, even at a weak position group that has really only 1 name you can recognize, Crush has not made himself into a name worth remembering. As for Brian Mills and Howard Miller, only time will tell as to whether or not they go down the route of JJ Reigns and solidify the thought that 1oa is more of a curse than a top player, or they could go down the route of Goodson and start changing the tide and making the first pick really seem worth it again.
