Reece Eddy has the ability to come in and make the same immediate impact, as he did with the Chrome. Since joining the PLL, Harrison hasnt been very productive, with seven points on 13% shooting, while Adams has proved to be one of the top two-way player in the league. Sconone is arguably the best goalie in the world, right up there with Blaze Riorden in pure shot stopping ability, and will elevate an already good Waterdogs defense. But Gleason is young but Kirwan may have a plan for him that I'm not seeing right now. He's 3x reigning Defender of the Year in the @NLL I think he would become the best pole available. The Redwoods make their first selection of the night and take former Denver Outlaw Mikie Schlosser. Troy Reh is a very interesting decision.

Joe Walters (M - Redwoods) People forget Walters was one of the best midfielders in 2019. Coach Ben Rubeor is making HIS roster, not the leagues roster, so I expect many key players to be dumped before the first game of the season. So I expect them to heavily target Nick Marracco in the Entry Draft. McNamara finished in the MLLs Top 20 in points the year prior to the founding of the PLL, was a member of the 2017 Tim Soudan-led Rattlers team and has proven to be one of the most prolific shooters from range at the midfield.

Duggan joined Chrome after four years at Cornell and established himself as a capable professional during the Championship series. Most shorties get dodged relentlessly; Goodrich is an exception. He has two-way abilities and will bring a lot of flexibility to the team. The Waterdogs faceoff unit were third in the league at 56% and should look to run back their excellent two man partnership.

He should provide great competition for Simeanou and now Tommy Kelly. Chrome LC: A Ryan Lee, Denver Outlaws. With the offensive talent coming to the league and Waterdogs high draft picks, I expect coach Copelan to prioritize his defense in the expansion process. At the back of the minds of 30. Pulver rounds out a really solid defense with size and ground ball ability. That isnt to say their guys are bad, they just dont have a true offensive superstar. I swear that wasnt intentional (except Heacock). Its common knowledge that Lyle Thompson will be taken first overall in the Entry Draft and with attention being put elsewhere, I expect Drenner to thrive in a role where he plays all over the field. He has the skill youd expect from a seasoned NLL veteran and can be a bigger physical mismatch with his size. Waterdogs LC: G Sean Sconone, Connecticut Hammerheads, 2020 Stats: 76 saves at 57% (15.2 per game), 11.4 GAA.

T he Draft. There are cornerstone pieces on this team already, including Zach Currier and Kieran McArdle, but I expect there to be changes coming into 2021. That likely wont hurt the Whipsnakes too bad, especially with the pair of former Terrapin midfielders waiting in the entry draft. Goodrich is the best pure SSDM in the world now that Ty Warner is retired. I have Tommy Palasek joining an already loaded Archers offense in the final round. 21. He had a statistically mediocre bubble performance in 2020, but hes an elite initiator from midfield. By continuing to use this site, we will assume that you are happy with it.

Put Pulver alongside Merrill and you could have a team that wins the ground ball battle week after week. The rich stay rich. After the Expansion Draft, the Archers are in a pretty great place. Currier is a nice Canadian compliment to Walters and Buczek and will fill up the back of the net. He will play even harder after not being protected by Nat St. Laurent. He compliments the big names well! Byrnes is one of the best defenders in the world, and fills in excellently as a a third defensemen for Archers. The best short-stick-defensive midfielders available in Zach Goodrich and Isaiah Davis-Allen go to the Cannons and Whipsnakes at #6 and #7 respectfully. Max Tuttle is the first Whip to be taken in this draft. This is a risky but worthwhile pick in a relatively weak expansion draft. Here are the results: Brodie Merrill, D, Waterdogs LC Connor Buczek, M, Atlas LC Ryan Drenner, A, Waterdogs LC Curtis Corley, D, Archers LC Reece Eddy, LSM, Chrome LC Who are some of the best available players for Cannons LC in our mock expansion draft?

Cant you just picture him in a Woods jersey? Buffalo: Owen Power, D, Michigan 2. Despite this, hes still a solid contributor who can star at either midfield or attack.

Brodie Merrill is a very experienced player who is nearing the end of his professional career. More recently, he has spent a lot of time playing behind the cage but he will be able to slot out wide and even up top if Coach Quirk likes.

With the influx of MLL and college players, roster spots will be tough to earn, and some of the fringe players selected in this draft could be on the outside looking in come summer.
