(S32) Ultimus Week

Code:

2. Tell us about your draft class. Is there anything that makes it special in comparison to other classes? Where did your fellow draftees land, how are they doing? Did anyone turn out to be an unexpected steal of that draft based on what you know today? Do you think anyone in your draft class will become a hall of famer? If you’re new to the league, how do you think your class will do? Where do you think people will get drafted to?

I've been wanting to do something like this for a while but am too lazy to write media for money. So why not do it for TPE!
Where are they at now? Season 28 draft class:

1. Luke Quick  - Being taken 1OA come with the pressure to succeed. Quick has lived up to these expectation as he is ranked 6th in class in TPE and still on the Hawks.

2. Busch Goose   - Baltimore struck gold on this pick as well. Goose is currently 4th in TPE and hasn't left in FA. Two solid picks for BAL in the first round.

3. Anton Bruckner  - This is a reach if I ever saw one. He's only gone on to become OCO's GM. No big deal.

4.  Xavier Walls  - The Liberty nailed it with this pick. Walls is still a great earner and exceedingly well blessed by the sim gods. He had 18 sacks this year.

5.  Glenn Smart   - At 5OA the Outlaws got Smart, who is still S28's leading LB in TPE. None of the players in the first five picks have left the team that drafted them

6. Mongo  - The first draft bust and also the first player to switch teams. The user has gone IA, leaving Mongo ranked 33rd in TPE. New Yor has since traded him to NOLA.

7. Juno Hu  - Once the top earning CB in the class, Hu has fallen to 4th. I wouldn't call him a bust, as he has been very productive, it must be disappointing for San Jose to see their first rounder leave to Austin in FA.

8. Andrew Warthol  - He came into the league fast and hard, and then burned out quickly. After being selected in the first round and taking a DSFL GM job, skorch went IA, topping out at 357 TPE.

9. Troy Abed  - Berlin was successful with this pick as Abed is ranked 13th in his class. Since the draft, he has switch from QB to WR and has not left the team. Consider this pick a success.

10. Dexter Hall - While I wouldn't call Hall a bust, I wouldn't fault you for hoping for more out of your first rounder. He's ranked 24th in TPE. He has stuck with Butchers so far so that's a big plus.

11. Manhattan Project  - Since the draft, Project has switch from RB to OL and has become one of the top 5 OL in the league. He's stuck with the Yeti. I would consider this pick a home run.

12. Professor Godfrey Gravity   - Another player that showed great promise and then fizzled out shortly after the draft. Gravity topped out at 329 TPE and is no longer on Honolulu, playing for New Orleans instead.

13. Cade Williams - NOLA definitely did their research here as dude_man has gone on to become a super user across many leages. In terms of the ISLF, Williams is top 10 TPE earner of his class and top 5 OL in the league. Still on the Secondline, great pick.

14. Chunt The Badger  - Looking back, I'm not sure if Baltimore would have traded up for this pick again. Chunt is ranked 28th in the class and has since been traded to New York.

15. Romulus Roman - Romulus has been a solid earner (ranked 21st) and stuck with the Liberty. I think a big bonus to this pick is that it paved the way for Philly to sign Remus in FA. They call that a two-fer

16. Bayley Cowabunga  - At pick 16, Ausitin got a player who is ranked 19th in the class. Plus, Cowabunga has stayed with the team, making this pick spot on.

- 11/16 picks still play for their original team
- 3 bonafide draft busts
