Coinciding with a juicy draft position (second overall), Kate Upton FTW had an outstanding performance. They're projected to finish first in OTC Football League 2014 League with a record of 12-1-0 (1,414 points). They focused on having a balanced offensive attack, selecting QB Aaron Rodgers (23rd overall), RB Jamaal Charles (2nd), WR Randall Cobb (26th), and TE Rob Gronkowski (47th) within the first five rounds. They landed one of the most prolific groups of RBs in the league, as they added Charles, Frank Gore, Trent Richardson, and Darren McFadden to their roster.

Ever wonder what exactly was inside the brief case in Pulp Fiction? Kate Upton FTW should use Week 4 to solve the mystery, since they certainly won't be winning. They have three 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. In addition to having the second-easiest overall schedule, Kate Upton FTW also 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. 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.
