I like Ierlan a lot, and I see why they went with him, but I had Mark rated a bit higher in my mocks as well. Time will tell if Ierlan can be more than a top backup in the league, which is all he'll be asked to do for a bit. I think Mark could start within a year or two. If I'm him and can control my landing spot - I'd be aiming for the Whipsnakes.

Outlaws haven't resigned Farrell so FO makes sense there. Boyle and Co had a good point on air about his (Weirman's) athleticism and playing ability after the faceoff is won or lost, an area that Farrell struggled. I think Cannons and Waterdogs were watching to see what the other would do, and neither took the bait. Holman made a comment indicating that he may keep the same strategy as last year and roll a few guys out to take draws. Tierney is the wildcard of course in his first year. I expect Naso and Stathakis to get camp invites somewhere, maybe Kohn but again his status seems up in the air. I think Tierney will certainly add at least one through the post draft process.

Cormier is the big shocker. Not sure if there's something about his availability we don't know about. Would've thought the Whipsnakes would've taken him over Poitras if he was available. Or the Redwoods over Anderson.

It wasn't a deep SSDM group but I'm also surprised that Pederson was the only one taken. Martin, Haus, and Yager were on my radar. Although I'd sign Dearth over any of them, but I think a few might end up in camp. Again, surprised the Whips in particular didn't address the position at all.
