First, let me say hello to all the owners. We have had some turnover in ownership going into season 5 of the XFL so to all the new owners, Welcome!
I spent a good amount of time analyzing every team especially when it comes to draft picks and how they did in training camp. The following is my breakdown for each team and only includes breakdowns of rookies still on the roster at the time of my review. Like always, this is solely based on my personal opinion of each player using my own customized player weights and my opinion of where that player fits into each roster.
Because of the fallout from my 1st round draft review, let me say I do this to add to our league. I try to be as honest with my evaluation as possible but I hope no owner will see anything I write as a personal attack. Part of what makes the NFL great is talk radio, prediction shows, mock drafts and shows like Inside the NFL. All these platforms are based on opinions which offer either praise or criticism.
With that being said, let the training camp report begin. I will breakdown each rookie into 4 categories:
BACKUPS 1/23 MLB Alan Robinson 2/24 WLB Robert Hagy. 3/23 RB. Michael cramer
FRINGE 4/24 DT. Marty Guinan 6/24 MLB Jake Hamilton
CUT 5/23 QB Donald Glennon

AXC EAST
BUFFALO (smirt211)
STARTER 1/30 RB Wesley Richards
BACKUP none
FRINGE 3/30 WR Delbert Romero 4/30 WR Larry Ahn
CUT none
Buffalo has 10 WRs on the roster and both rookie WRs will compete to be the 5th, 6th or 7th WR. I put them as fringe depending on how many WRs they decide to keep. Both WRs have the talent to be backups
STARTER 1/10 RDE James Brown 2/12 CB George Weaver 3/11 C Rafael Bryant
BACKUP None
FRINGE 5/12 WLB Raymond Sanchez 6/11 WR Darrell Barton
CUT None
The WR and WLB were both put at fringe because of overall lack of overall depth at those positions. I can see both being cut if the team picks up someone better in free agency when rosters are trimmed down

AXC EAST
MIAMI (gridironfan)
STARTER 1/15 CB Frederick Good 3/17 CB Samual Barefield 2/18 WLB Prince Lester
BACKUP 4/16 RT Basil Hawkins
FRINGE 5/15 RB Rodney Malik 4/26 RG Ariel Reese
CUT 6/18 RB Willis Gutierrez 7/17 RB Robert Bell
Miami will be starting 2 rookie CBs in week 1 along with a rookie WLB. This could turn out to be a great draft for gridironfan.

AXC NORTH
CLEVELAND (tman0115)
STARTER 1/5 RB Nathan Miller 4/5 RT Hal Colon 2/7 DT Nicolas Brown
BACKUP 3/6 RDE Jason Cooper 5/7 MLB Joseph Ragsdale
FRINGE 6/6 SS Chad Adcox
CUT 7/5 WLB Craig Green
The SS was only put as fringe because of lack of depth in the secondary. He should be cut if they pick up someone in free agency when rosters are trimmed down. With 3 starters from this draft class, it was a great draft for tman0115.

AXC NORTH
CINCINNATI (fhunt3)
STARTER 2/25 SS Jose Quinn
BACKUP 3/25 RB Sergio Hayed 1/25 LT Steve Chang 5/25 C Aaron Slaughter 7/25 SLB Christopher Van Houten
FRINGE 6/25 WR John Miller 4/25 RT Rod Belliveau
CUT none
LT Steve Chang could compete to start. SS Jose Quinn will start but fhunt3 will have to decide to either keep him at safety or move him to corner. Its a fair possibility that all 7 picks will make the roster which makes this a good draft for fhunt3.

AXC NORTH
PITTSBURG (armchairqb)
STARTER 3/1 TE John Hernandez 2/26 LDE Raymond Santos*
BACKUP 6/1 LT Richard Hughes 1/19 LDE Alex Leavitt* 4/1 RDE Terry Evans 4/29 MLB Jack Wheeler
FRINGE 5/1 WR Gordon Dean 7/1 WR Irvin Erickson
CUT none
Pittsburgh has 9 WRs on the roster and both rookies are on the fringe dependong on how many the team keeps. They both will battle to be anywhere from 4th to 9th on the depth chart. I believe LDE Raymond Santos should be moved to RDE where he would start immediately. RDE Terry Evans should be moved inside to DT where he would be 3rd on the depth chart.
STARTERS 2/2 RB Seth Ball 7/16 FB Allen Grove 1/18 SLB Samuel Greenwald 1/3 SS Larry Cummins
BACKUP 3/31 QB Aaron Artis
FRINGE 3/3 TE Jason Cisco
CUT 4/2 WR Craig Das 5/18 DT Arturo Parenteau
Frosty96 drafted 4 starters including 2 potential superstars. He also drafted a backup QB and some possible depth at TE. Fantastic draft for Frosty96 as he moves from Baltimore to Birmingham.

AXC SOUTH
DAKOTA BLIZZARD (cjfred68)
STARTER 1/27 RT Michael Lambert
BACKUP 3/19 LDE Kurt Ormsby 4/19 C William Flora
FRINGE none
CUT 5/30* WR Javier Hinton 4/27 CB Bobby Jeanbaptiste
A starting RT and some depth at C and LDE makes this an OK draft for Cjfred68.
* WR Javier Hinton was drafted by Buffalo and cut before being signed by Dakota and appears to be looking at the 2nd cut of his young career.
