KButter5 took advantage of a favorable draft slot and built the kind of roster that makes opponents "go out of town" or "spend time with the kids" when they see your team on the schedule. KButter5 is projected to finish first in TDL 2017 C League at 12-1-0 (1,618 points). With five receivers on the roster, KButter5 guaranteed the WR position was all shored up. Compared to the league average of 140, their WRs' projected average of 146 points this season is not much different than the rest of the wideout groups in the league. They wound up with the best group of RBs in the league, as they added Le'Veon Bell, Leonard Fournette and Doug Martin to their roster.
KButter5 can chalk up Week 9 as a loss. They have four players and the most projected fantasy points on bye that week. Based on their opponents' projected points, they have one of the least challenging schedules. KButter5 has the opportunity to come out firing, as the first four games of their season are projected to be less difficult than the league average.

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.
