(S28) PT1 - Draft Day

[Alcott]

The Season 28 ISFL Draft was my second draft experience, the first being the DFSL Draft last season. I was picked with the 11th pick in the second round, so 25th overall, by the Colorado Yeti. The draft position was in the general area that I thought I would be taken, maybe even a little earlier as the majority of responses I was getting from General Managers and scouts I talked to during the pre-draft process indicated I would be drafted between the late first and early third rounds. Now bump that back a round or two to line up with the reality of what happened in the DSFL draft versus what I was told during that pre-draft process and the ISFL draft position is actually closer to the top end of the prediction spectrum. There were a few teams I talked to that seemed more interested in me than others, especially with my current position and upcoming needs that aligned, and Colorado was definitely on that list. In fact the Yeti GM more or less said he'd take me in the second if I was available and he was definitely true to his word. The draft experience was pretty cool, the Dallas Locker Room was throwing out some mentions when I got drafted and the Colorado Locker Room was very welcoming before the draft presentation had even ended, so it was awesome to continue being in supportive Locker Rooms on awesome teams.
