Taking advantage of having the final pick in the first round, Kibbles and Vicks was able to orchestrate a masterful draft. They're projected to finish atop NFC CHAMPIONS League with a record of 11-2-0 (1,697 points). They went after the diva position early, using three of their first five selections on WRs Dez Bryant (first round), Antonio Brown (third round), and Michael Floyd (fifth round). Kibbles and Vicks will rely heavily on this group, as they are the highest-scoring group of WRs in the league.
Kibbles and Vicks can chalk up Week 10 as a big fat L. They have four players and the most projected fantasy points on bye that week. Based on their opponents' projected points, they have the least challenging schedule. In addition to having the easiest overall schedule, Kibbles and Vicks also has the league's second-easiest first four games and second-softest last four games of the season.

Player Analysis
-
- Dez Bryant, WR
- Round 1, Pick 10
Bryant is More of a Full-Service GuyRodney Dangerfield claimed he once went to a massage parlor that was self-service. With 309 projected fantasy points this year, Dez Bryant should serve Kibbles and Vicks a little better than that.

Mr. Do-It-AllMontee Ball is projected to finish eighth in the league with 1,498 total yards (1,070 rushing, 428 receiving).

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.
