Whether or not aceokshaq was talking trash in the draft chat room is irrelevant and you have no proof. What there is proof of, though, is a dominant draft performance by aceokshaq that led to a season projection of 11-2-0 (1,269 points) and a first-place finish in TDL Advanced 2014 C League. If they have a bad season, it won't be due to a lack of wide receivers, as they used three of their first five selections to pick up WRs Calvin Johnson (first round), Brandon Marshall (second round), and Larry Fitzgerald (fourth round). These players will be heavily relied upon by aceokshaq, as they are the highest-scoring group of WRs in the league.
aceokshaq can chalk up Week 9 as a loss. They have four players and the most projected fantasy points on bye that week. Looking at the season as a whole, they have one of the least difficult schedules. Along with having the fourth-easiest overall schedule, aceokshaq has the most difficult last four games of the season.
Draft Notes

-
Afraid to Step Outside Your Comfort Zone?
With six "low-risk" players among their 15 picks, aceokshaq is looking for dependable help.
-
Full Control Early On

-
No Back-Up No Cry
Ignoring roster depth, aceokshaq chose only one player at three different positions (TE, DEF, and K).

-
Basic Math is Optional

Player Analysis
-
- Calvin Johnson, WR
- Round 1, Pick 5
The Standard by Which All Others are MeasuredOften the lone wideout taken in the first round in 2013, Megatron lived up to the expectations and was owned on more playoff teams across Yahoo! than any other WR.
-
- B. Marshall, WR
- Round 2, Pick 20
The Power of PersuasionNow would be a reasonable time for aceokshaq to encourage the TDL Advanced 2014 C League to raise the value of receptions. They snagged Brandon Marshall and his 93 projected catches (ranked fifth in the NFL).
-
- Doug Martin, RB
- Round 3, Pick 29
If it Ain't BrokeThen do fix it? Laughing in the face of decades of fantasy tradition, aceokshaq didn't grab their first RB (Doug Martin) until the third round.
-
- L. Fitzgerald, WR
- Round 4, Pick 44
Delivering NightmaresLarry Fitzgerald will look to haunt the dreams of opposing corners, as he's projected to finish 10th in the NFL with 8.1 receiving TDs.
-
- Frank Gore, RB
- Round 5, Pick 53
Imitation is the Sincerest Form of FlatteryFrank Gore will be trying to imitate Bo Jackson in Tecmo Bowl this season. He's expected to wind up seventh in the league with 8.6 rushing TDs.
Best Available
If aceokshaq wants to upgrade, QB and RB are areas they could go after first.

How We Grade
Draft grades are based strictly on teams' draft performances. This is calculated by counting the number of fantasy points teams are projected to score over the course of the season using their optimal line-ups. The grades do not take schedule into account. Because of bye weeks and other variables it is possible to earn a high grade yet be projected to finish in the middle of the pack. The opposite is also true. Bottom line: Fantasy Football is like the real game. You can draft the greatest talent in the world but you still need to manage your team every week to get the most out of that talent.
