Notes
How good are Danny Logan and Zach Goodrich to make the top 24 in the league? If you mentioned any player 25-50, you'd be well within your right to believe they were ranked higher than a defensive middie.
With Rabil and White retiring, who moves into the top 50 this summer? Keep an eye out for Romar Dennis or even a rookie if they find a great home. Sowers has to crack the top 50 as well.
The potential trend to watch is what does the NLL season do to PLL athletes. Expecting a big leap for young, non NLL athletes like the aforementioned Sowers and Steve Rehfuss, simply because they won't be as tired.
