Josh's Majestic Team was able to invest the sixth pick well and looks positioned for some nice returns over the season. The proceeds from this draft include an overall projected finish of third in Stampede Blue League 6 League, as well an estimated 1,656 points and a record of 9-4-0. They went after guys who can tote the rock with their early picks, using three of their first five picks to scoop up RBs Montee Ball (second round), Le'Veon Bell (third round), and Rashad Jennings (fourth round). They put together the highest-scoring group of WRs in the league, as they added Calvin Johnson, Pierre Garcon and Rueben Randle for their rotation.
Week 4 might require some artful managing from Josh's Majestic Team. They have five players and the most projected fantasy points on bye that week. Taking a look at the entire season from start to finish, they have one of the easiest slates. Along with having the second-easiest overall schedule, Josh's Majestic Team has the second-softest last four games of the season.

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.

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.
