Cava-Nice MW division. I think you wasted a pick on Fitch and Urijah though. Caplan-Too much on useless HW's, but a nice MW division. Morgan-Took the best WW division, and I hate seeing Kimbo in any organization. Huckaby-The best picks. With such a limited amount of picks, you didn't waste time picking good fighters for each division, because then there would be 4-5 fighters each, and constant rematches with no competition. Maramba-Nice picks, but after a few shows, there wouldn't be any new matches, causing way too many rematches. Cupitt- Best LW and nice LHW. Possibly 2nd best. My personal opinion on each of your picks.

What's up with the overall lack of WWs (cept for Morgan's org)? Maybe next year you should have the orgs pick one contender from each weight class per round. That way you have more well-rounded orgs. Or maybe each org could focus on 3-4 weight classes of their choice, e.g. Huckaby would specialize in MW thru HW. Credit –> Huckaby :)

Huckaby went the Affliction route and loaded his org with heavy- and light heavyweights. While completely lacking in 155-185 talent, there are more than enough match-ups in the fighters he's got to make due. However, his master stroke are his Free Agents. He added a FULL and STACKED division in one fell swoop. MMAStation is right.

I like the Free Agent picks. But I maintain that this should be an annual thing, as the landscape of MMA changes year to year. Matt C, I think it’s the lack of depth at WW that you have.

The talent at heavy and light heavy is just too great and no one else has a talented weight class as deep as his two. No matter what Huckaby does his card will be the best out there.
