It's another SPL, but for kids who go to business school:
Snek in Vag
In. Uu RU NU OU Ubers
Well damn if this kind of outside of the box thinking is just what we're looking for on our team.

Well the first mock draft has come and gone and it went about as well as expected. We only had to fire three managers before we barely got through a manual auction. Here are the lineups:
The Mumbai Menaces managed by BHARATH_THEBEST
SM OU: thethorn
SM OU: ojama
SM OU: cdumas
SM OU: ban manaphy
SM Ubers: thimo
SM UU: xray
SM RU: sabella
SM NU: blunder
SM DOU: mizuhime
SM LC: star
Coming in with a draft of exceptionally OU focused players, BTB eschewed what everyone thought would be the first pick to go with blunder. An unorthodox decision, we'll see if it'll pay off for him.
The 777's managed by blunder
SM OU: john
SM OU: leftiez
SM OU: zokuru
SM OU: gondra
SM Ubers: hugo barrington
SM UU: teal6
SM RU: flamingvictini
SM NU: hootie
SM DOU:biosci
SM LC: levi
A very strong start with some left-field picks in the later rounds, this suggests manager blunder has really done his homework when preparing for this draft.
The Jesus Christos managed by Christo
SM OU: soulwind
SM OU: btb
SM OU: ctc
SM OU: rodriblutar
SM Ubers: omfuga
SM UU: manipulative
SM RU: chillshadow
SM NU: aim
SM DOU: edgar
SM LC: heysup
While starting off fairly strong with recognized players, we have to question a certain pick on Christos team that suggest he may have ran out of viable names. Also I have no idea who to put in doubles.
The Watashis managed by FLCL
SM OU: abr
SM OU: njnp
SM OU: malekith
SM OU: zamrock
SM Ubers: evuelf
SM UU: pif
SM RU: badabing
SM NU: jayde
SM DOU:majorbowman
SM LC: heist
Trying to cram a lot of OU players onto the team, FLCL definitely has what should be considered the strongest SM OU core... but falls off a bit later as I'm pretty sure half of his lower tier players have never touched that tier before. 9/10
The COPPAs managed by GOAO
SM OU: tamahome
SM OU: mcmeghan
SM OU: axel10
SM OU: reiku
SM Ubers: astounded
SM UU: meeps
SM RU: bouff
SM NU: accelgor
SM DOU: ez
SM LC: OP
Similar problems with knowing literally no doubles players, GOAO also forgot that DPP is not in the tour. Otherwise his lower tier knowledge is sound.
The Meeps Today at 1:28 PM teal let me daft or is it too late managed by meepsvictory
SM OU: finch
SM OU: tricking
SM OU: p2
SM OU: eo
SM Ubers: the trap god
SM UU: sacri
SM RU: killintime
SM NU: flcl
SM DOU: hantsuki
SM LC: kingler12345
A few awkward fits but overall not bad, FLCL could easily play in basically any spot so got shoved in NU to accomodate others.
The Star Did Something Embarrassing in OLT Call Like A Month Ago But I Forgot What It Was And I Wanted To Reference It Here managed by Star
SM OU: pdc
SM OU: blackoblivion
SM OU: gtm
SM OU: steve angello
SM Ubers: m dragon
SM UU: tesung
SM RU: lord esche
SM NU: level 56
SM DOU: stax
SM LC: ggggd
Star got some knockout picks including SM Ubers M Dragon who is incredibly dominant, overall a good team without anything really bizarre
The Yale Attending, No Door Having, Bodybuilders managed by -Tsunami-
SM OU: trosko
SM OU: jamvad
SM OU: lysergic
SM OU: bro kappa
SM Ubers: dice
SM UU: pearl
SM RU: kushalos
SM NU: soulgazer
SM DOU: braverius
SM LC: zoroarkforever
Shake managed to draft a good team w/ someone for each spot. Who knows if Jamvad will actually play lol. He also lucked out with dice as late as he did because Posho picked him R1 but we then fired posho which reset his picks and the rest of us forgot.
The Handsome Guys managed by teal6
SM OU: alexander
SM OU: sweepage
SM OU: ricardo
SM OU: z0mog
SM Ubers: that lance guy who always writes 60000 words
SM UU: ironbullet
SM RU: arifeen
SM NU: shake
SM DOU: kamikaze
SM LC: goao
The best team on the list.
The Guy Who Replaced The First Four Fired Managers Team managed by atomicllamas
SM OU: posho
SM OU: reyscarface
SM OU: nintendi
SM OU: mazar
SM Ubers: pohjis
SM UU: bushtush
SM RU: col49
SM NU: realistic waters
SM DOU: miltankmilk
SM LC: zorodark
Overall pretty good team, I have written a lot and this has taken me a while so I'm kinda out of words
peace
