As Swantavius was drafted this week, makes sense to write my piece about my first two weeks in the league. While it's certainly a lot to take in, I had a blast reading up on all that there is to know about being a rookie and trying to take in as much as possible about the league history. The scouting experience was really what made it. Rather than feeling like you're being thrown in at the deep end with no support, almost all the interactions I had with team scouts felt like conversations, and they were more than happy to answer any and all quesitons I had. A small minority played it more like an interview, with just a list of 10 questions sent to my DMs. And with so many scouts on the lookout, I didn't have time to engage with those ones.
The prospect bowl was a really fun event and a great chance at a practice run for being in a team locker room and getting to know some fellow rookies. Despite the Drifters going winless, it was still a really positive experience and I hope it continues for future rookies. Onto draft day, and even though I couldn't catch it live, the anticipation was huge as I watched the stream back. The team did an amazing job of taking time to talk about each player which really made it feel like the real deal. I've been on my team for a few days now and loving the league so far. A+, would rookie again
