2026 offseason/free agency/draft

Welcome to the 9th season of the XFL League.

It's the end of an era in Dakota as Head Coach Herbert Warner has announced his retirement. Warner was the original Head Coach of the francise who finished with a record of 120-29-1, 7 consecutive division titles, 4 conference championships and 2 league championships. In addition, Defensive Coordinator Theodore Donald has also retired. He spent the last four seasons running the defense and leading the team to 3 straight Conference Championships and a League Championship.

The Blizzard also lost WR Daniel Chapa and CB Gordon Speed to retirement. Both players were part of the original allocation draft and played huge rolls in the francises success.

Speed finished his career with 39 interceptions which ranks 2nd alltime in league history. His 112 tackles in the playoffs is the most alltime and he is 2nd alltime in playoff interceptions with 6.

Chapa was a consistent weapon who finishes ranked 30th alltime in receiving yards and 20th alltime in TD receptions. His contributions in the playoffs stand out as he is 2nd alltime in receiving yards with 884 and 3rd alltime with 4 TD receptions.

The Dakota Blizzard also lost QB coach Willard Frederickson, starting RT Joseph Charles, starting LG Zachary Rosario and WR Carl Hilton to retirement.

The search for a new Head Coach has begun as one era ends and a new era begins. This will be a pivotal year for the Dakota Blizzard as the Milwaukee Buzzsaws seem poised to take control of the division. This free agency and draft will be key to the direction this team takes heading into the future.

Welcome Texasfan to the XFL. He is taking over the Birmingham Thunderbolts and moving them to Houston to become the Roughnecks which is one of the new XFL teams.

This is the 2nd relocation for the francise which originated in Baltimore from 2018-2020 then moved to Birmingham from 2021-2025.

Just a heads up to everyone. The XFL stats thread has been updated through the 2025 season.

See if any of your players rank in the top 5 for a ton of statistical categories including single game, single season, career, playoff game and alltime playoff.

Everything from passing, rushing to kicking and punting is listed. Any player new to the leaderboard this season is tagged with an asterisk.

I have also begun a thread to track the draft history for each team to include every seasons 1st round pick. See how they have turned out years after they were drafted. Learn which team has nailed their picks and those that have missed more than not.

It's a work in progress, where each team will have it's own post in the thread. Like the stats thread, it will be locked unless I'm working on it so any comments about either thread can be made in this thread.

I am anxious to see how my QB I picked up in the second round does. There weren't any qb's that stood out to me this year as being great so I waited and took him a little later. If his accuracy booms I am confident I will have a great team next season. If not, I'll be faced with having a Joe Flacco at quarterback in Ben Jones and should I trade up next season(where hopefully there will be a better qb) or stick with what i have.

I think i can easily have the best draft, but with these high volatile first rounders im hoping the rolls favor me
