"The day was a huge success for us," said Rattlers General Manager Sean Werth, "every player we identified ahead of the draft was still available for us. I expect most of these players to be in Rattler sweater either this fall or in a season's time."
Werth also commented that there were a handful players the club wanted to draft but did not have enough selections because of the trades. These player's names will be released as they sign.
The club had also tendered 12 players ahead of the draft. These players will be released as they transfer from Tender cards to Player Cards.
