This draft by Steve L's Swag Team was like a finely tuned Peyton Manning-led offense, with all the pieces falling into place. Just like Peyton's offense, Steve L's Swag Team is expected to score a lot of points this season and finish first in NFC CHAMPIONS League at 10-3-0 (2,052 points). With five RBs on the roster, Steve L's Swag Team loaded up on solid options; their RBs are projected to average 194 points this season, close to the league average of 195. They have the most prolific group of WRs in the league, as they have Julio Jones, Brandin Cooks, Keenan Allen, and Jarvis Landry on their team.
Steve L's Swag Team should use Week 10 to consider life's deeper mysteries, like why don't the pants worn by Dr. Bruce Banner rip when he transforms into the Hulk? It's better to think about that than pay attention to fantasy football. They have five players and the most projected fantasy points on bye that week. Looking at the entire season, they have one of the least challenging schedules. Along with the second-easiest overall schedule, both the first four games and last four games of the season are pretty average for Steve L's Swag Team.

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.
