When I was drafted, the San Jose Sabercats had two picks in the first round, back to back. It was obvious that one of their picks would be Cornerback Benson Bayley, but their other pick was quite questionable. Many people assumed they would go for another defender, in which case Julian O'Sullivan could have been a great fit for them. They could have immediately had two defenders to be cornerstones of their defense. Instead they ended up taking Iyah Blewitt, a kicker, in the first round, which meant I fell to the Orange County Otters.
Right now, the Sabercats are actually in a better spot than the Otters. But imagine how good that team could be right now with Julian O'Sullivan in the middle of that defense. A kicker will not have that kind of impact on a team. The Otters are struggling this year, but have an easier schedule the end of the year and look to get into the playoffs over the Sabercats just like last season. Either way, it will forever be a crazy decision in my career and one can only imagine how differently my career might have gone if the Sabercats drafted me instead of the Otters.
