The best part about this particular opening season is it's the first opening season for Trae Bacon. The Portland Pythons are stacked this season, with Trae Bacon playing a pivotal role in a their strong defensive strategy. This is a chance for all the S18 rookies to prove themselves in the DSFL, and for Trae Bacon in particular to prove the entire first round of drafts as bad picks (except for Jay Cue).
There is a strong defensive class this year, which makes it even more exciting - instead of just focusing on the quarterbacks and skill positions, the big boys on the line are making the headlines. Bacon, Ironside, Kassel, Virtanen, Franchet, all of the big boys out there are ready to tear up some offenses that have been complacent for too long. Keeping track of sacks, tackles, and pass deflections for the season is going to be a lot of fun.
Most of all though, the Portland Python's trading strategy seems to be a "win now" strategy. They made some initially confusing trades but high value, made some very smart picks, and have a first class offense and a first class defense. Anything can happen this season in the DSFL, and I'm excited to see how the Pythons are going to capitalize on a strong draft - with a particularly strong round 2 steal (haha).
