Title: London have many new starters Post by: Paul-London on February 24, 2008, 04:16:50 PM A crazy week of trades and then the FWL draft, what changes are ahead for London ?
- The Monarchs love WR Dan Sheldon and were so happy to get him from Orlando. They will start Sheldon at WR1 and think they have an undiscovered gem. London will have two blazing starters in Sheldon and Triandos Luke with Kassim Osgood at WR3 - TE Yoan Schnee will battle Jeff Nicholson for the starting job but it seems Nicholson who has spent his career being undersized at TE will win the job. Nicholson has always been criticised for being too small but constantly makes tough catches - London were happy to gain T Kareem Marshall who will start alongside T Todd Wike who was previously offered in a trade. Marshall is another strong quick tackle who should help the rushing game - DE Eric Powell starts at DE1 with Hall of Famer Mark Word at DE2 for the first time in his career. Powell has a ton of talent and now must show it on the field. DT Nick Burley was a surprise to be traded but London spent a 1st round pick last year on DT Melila Purcell and want the player to earn his money by starting at DT2 alongside Jake Sparks. - Rookie Anthony Trucks will start at LB, not because he was a great selection by London but because London have some gaping holes at LB due to the retirements of Kinnon Tatum and Brian Rodgers. Outside the top two LB's the rest are much slower. |
