For any team, the first few practices before the preseason can be rather eye opening. Maybe that rookie picked in round two isn't as good as you thought they were, or maybe that guy all the way down in round 11 is making plays like a champ. For a young team like the Philadelphia Liberty, these first few practices mean even more than they mean to almost any other team. Being an expansion team, the Liberty only have a handful of players who played in season one. The bulk of the Lib's roster is made up of rookies from the season two draft. While other teams have a pretty good idea of what to expect going into these early practices, for a young team such as the Liberty, the results can be surprising. One player who has made waves within the organization is none other than first round pick Fox North. After the shocking position change that brought Lincoln Jefferson over to the defensive side of the ball at safety, North looks to be the WR 1 going into season two. Despite being young, the way North is playing you wouldn't be able to pick him out of a group of five year veterans. North has already built up the speed and agility required for him to make quick cuts along routes that he runs, and North has great hands, rarely letting a ball slip once he gets a glove on it. Practice is looking like a game in the park for North as he makes big play after big play. Although it is still early on in the year, make sure to keep an eye on Fox North as the Liberty's season progresses.
