I think this could be one of the 'mentor' moments from Derek when he explains the importance of having a literal werewolf pack, and how to select the right people for that pack bc imo Boyd, Erics, and Issac were all solid choices. From Derek's point of view, Erica, Isaac, and Boyd were great choices because they had big, big issues.

Boyd had no friends

Erica was epileptic

Isaac was abused by his father.

Do you get my point? They had issues and them getting the bite would supposedly improve their lives by making everything better(it didn't). It would be easy for Derek to convince them to join the pack. Liam is NOT likely choice for Derek because he is already a star athlete with perfect grades and popularity. However, I could be wrong, as we don't know much about his life, maybe he does deserve the bite by Derek's standards.

So yeah, I agree that they were good choices, but Liam is a horrible one. And as I said, this is Derek's point of view, not Scott's. I'm saying he picked honest people who would stand by him and who would be 'good'....not cocky people such as Jackson (who he bit thinking it might kill him i heard). It is true that Liam is a star athlete, but he is also described as having a big heart, plus he was the first freshman casted.
