All that time spent doing fantasy football research instead of actual work wasn't a waste of time after all, as Fred is projected to finish in first place in TDL 2016 B League with a record of 11-2-0 (1,590 points). 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 Antonio Brown (first round), Mike Evans (third round), and Donte Moncrief (fifth round). A lot will be expected of this group, as they are the best group of WRs in the league.
Fred should use Week 10 to finally build that mini trainyard. Really just about anything other than checking fantasy football will do. They have four players and the most projected fantasy points on bye that week. Looking at the entire season, they have the softest schedule. Along with having the easiest overall schedule, Fred also has the second-softest last four games of the season.

Rethinking That OneDonte Moncrief may not justify his 49th overall draft pick if projections hold true. Currently, he is estimated to fall outside the NFL's top-20 in both yards (25th with 1,007) and TDs (23rd with 7.2).

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.
