(S23) - PT2 - Draft Day

[s4ndr0p]

Sandro Ryeu did not get too much attention ahead of both the S21 DSFL- and S22 NSFL-Draft. It seemed like many GMs did have his name on the board and his TPE but nothing else behind it. In the S22 NSFL-Draft Ryeu was picked in the 3rd round as the second defensive end off the board. In this draft defensive end players were very valuable, there were many teams with DE needs and not too many elite edge rusher. Over the course of the season Troen Egghands proved to be the DE who was most likely going to go first. James Cho shocked the world with a late Tier 6 equipment purchase und jumped up to the 2nd highest rated defensive end of the class. Unfortunately, it might have been a bit too late as many GMs already scouted this group and Ryeu remained as the No. 2 guy.
Surprisingly, teams evaluated Ryeu's talents only on tpe, ignoring his unique DSFL-statlines as a LB/DE-Hybrid type of a player who most likely had the best statline among his class.
Ryeu was Drafted by the Arizona Outlaws as the second DE off the board to fill their defensive end position. Ryeu has yet to find foot in AZ it seems since he is not close to getting the production back he used to produced in his DSFL-Season.
