The XFL finished it’s first draft in this new campaign and we now have a clearer picture of what the rosters will look like. We will have some Wildcats to root for when February comes around starting with a guy that may end up going to the NFL instead of playing in the XFL, Austin MacGinnis. He was drafted in the open round by the Dallas Renegades and this selection came on the heels of his recent workout with the Patriots.

Austin MacGinnis worked out with the Patriots yesterday and now we draft him in the first round of the open draft. Shows the quality of players available. This is just one of many.

The St. Louis Battlehawks selected Farrington Huguenin in the open round and he’ll have a chance to work his way on the field in a professional setting instead of bouncing around on NFL practice squads.

Finally and probably the most surprising pick came when the DC Defenders selected Jordan Jones. He’ll join Jon Toth in DC will get his first chance to play professional football.
