Kenny01 had the unfortunate honor of picking ninth overall. It is unclear whether it was luck or monk-level concentration, but Kenny01 did well and is projected to finish first in TDL Advanced 2016 C League with 1,565 points and a record of 9-4-0. They went after the diva position early, using three of their first five selections on WRs Dez Bryant (second round), T.Y. Hilton (third round), and Demaryius Thomas (fourth round). They also built one of the top TE tandems in the league, as they have Coby Fleener and Martellus Bennett.

Whether by good fortune or well-planned strategy, Kenny01 has secured a favorable bye week schedule for their superstars. Of their top five players in projected points, none share a common off week. Based on their opponents' projected points, they have the least challenging slate. Along with having the easiest overall schedule, Kenny01 also has the second-softest last four games of the season.

Draft Notes

  • Up and Comers

    Assembling a squad of rising stars is key to fantasy success and Kenny01 may have done just that, with five players estimated to top their prior-season numbers by a substantial amount.

  • Big D

    Kenny01 elected to go with two DEFs instead of loading up at other spots.

  • Bargain Shopper

    With four steals in the first 9 rounds (including Denver, Graham Gano, and Coby Fleener), Kenny01 made some shrewd moves.

  • Dual-Threat Dynamo

    Tyrod Taylor can deliver fantasy glory to Kenny01 with his arm and his legs. Taylor has 498 projected rushing yards, and ranks second among QBs in that category.

  • Digging Deep

    Darren Sproles is owned in only 6% of all Yahoo! leagues, but will surely reward Kenny01 for their faith! Or not.

Player Analysis

    • Lamar Miller, RB
    • Round 1, Pick 9
    Feed Thy Beast

    Lamar Miller will get the ball early and often, and he's projected to finish fifth in the league with 311 touches.

    • Dez Bryant, WR
    • Round 2, Pick 16
    A Nose for the End Zone

    Dez Bryant is expected to cross the goal line 9.9 times, placing him second in the NFL in projected receiving TDs. His 1,294 projected receiving yards also place him seventh in the league.

    • Drew Brees, QB

    Like Marino in His Prime

    Drew Brees is projected to lead the NFL in both passing yards (4,805) and passing TDs (31.5).

    • Ryan Mathews, RB
    • Round 6, Pick 64
    Was Ryan Mathews Worth it at Pick No. 64?

    Kenny01 sure hopes so. The Eagles' running back is projected to put up 156 points this year, after only netting 104 last year.

    • Coby Fleener, TE

    A Big, Strong Weapon

    Coby Fleener ranks fourth in the TDL Advanced 2016 C League among TEs with 130 projected fantasy points.

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. As a wise man once said, "On any given Sunday..."
