watches run 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. watches run is projected to finish second in We Talk Fantasy Sports League at 10-3-0 (1,216 points). They aimed for having a roster with balance throughout, taking QB Matt Ryan (55th overall), RBs Jamaal Charles (2nd) and Zac Stacy (27th), and WRs Keenan Allen (30th) and T.Y. Hilton (58th). They put together the top group of RBs in the league, as they added Charles, Stacy, and Knowshon Moreno.
While Week 12 has the most players on bye for watches run (four), Week 9 is actually projected to have the team's highest amount of idle fantasy points. Based on their opponents' projected points, they have the weakest schedule. In addition to having the easiest overall schedule, watches run has the league's easiest first four games and most difficult last four games of the season.

- Round 5, Pick 58
Rethinking That OneT.Y. Hilton went with the 58th pick, even though he's projected to fall outside of the top-20 in the NFL in both receiving TDs (25th) and receiving yards (26th) with 6.2 and 1,010 respectively.
-
- T. Williams, WR
- Round 6, Pick 83

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.
