Loco Moves Up in the Draft

In a deal finalized this morning El Pollo Loco traded the 6th overall pick and waiver cash to Tavon and Only in exchange for the 5th overall pick. After rumors of trade talks between Loco and ShowMeYourTDs earlier in the week, Loco and Tavon made a surprise deal. When asked about the trade general manager Josh Cermak said, "Even though it's only one spot we felt like this was the best move for the franchise in trying to build the best roster for this season." Speculation is that Loco will take Calvin Johnson with their first round pick, but for now we will just have to wait for the draft.

El Pollo Loco: On the Verge

With the first two seasons of the MFFL in the books the El Pollo Loco franchise has not lived up to the lofty expectations that they set for themselves. Missing the playoffs in each of the first two seasons was a tough blow for Loco, but they were able to salvage each season by winning the Last Man Hand-standing Trophy. As the reining and defending consolation bracket champion Loco has shown that they can step up and pull out wins in the postseason. However, Loco is not satisfied with winning the consolation bracket. This season Loco looks to trade in the LMH trophy for a playoff birth and a shot at the big boys. Not only has Loco proven they can win in the postseason they have the third best winning percentage in the league during the first two years. Loco has been consistent, but with the MFFL's third season on the horizon Loco looks to take the next step to greatness. This is no easy task in a deep league loaded with great managers. Loco knows it will be tough but they are willing to put in the man hours to achieve their ultimate goal: a MFFL championship. Preparation starts now.
