Player Re-allocation Draft this weekend

PFL Player re-allocation Draft | PFL HQ

by Ryan Solis, PFL Reporter.

This weekend will see the sixteen PFL teams pick the top players from the four now-defunct members- Amorgan Blues, Pottsburgh Cardinals, Seafax Storm and the Victoria Panthers.

Each of the teams will take turns to draft the top players from those old rosters. This includes the top two picks in the 2016 PFL Draft- Victoria’s QB Kelvin Stewart and Amorgan’s OL Paul Ortiz.  A new start for both players, who endured difficult rookie years, but also showed a lot of promise as they were adapted to the higher level of play.

There will be five rounds, with 80 players selected. The remaining 120 or so players will be free agents, free to sign with any team at any time. During the Re-allocation Draft, teams will be free to trade and waive selection rights at any time. With the increased salary cap for the next three seasons, teams may feel like they have a bit more room this season for another star or two!

This unprecedented draft, gives teams two ways to rebuild their teams this year. With youth from the PFL Player Drafy- picking UFB’s most promising rookies and the Re-allocation  Draft with veteran player available.

Paul Ortiz and Kelvin Stewart get to be drafted again this weekend!
