Coinciding with a juicy draft position (third overall), Glass Jaw Geno had an outstanding performance. They're projected to finish first in Stampede Blue League 9 League with a record of 11-2-0 (2,030 points). They went with a balanced approach early, selecting QB Peyton Manning (51st overall), RB Adrian Peterson (3rd), WR Randall Cobb (22nd), and TE Greg Olsen (46th) within the first five rounds. They landed the highest-scoring TE tandem in the league, as they have Olsen and Martellus Bennett on their team.
Glass Jaw Geno should use Week 7 to consider life's deeper mysteries, like what was the greatest thing before sliced bread? No, seriously, think about it. It's better than thinking about fantasy football that week. They have four players and the most projected fantasy points on bye that week. Looking at the season as a whole, they have the least challenging schedule. Along with the easiest overall schedule, both the first four games and last four games of the season are pretty average for Glass Jaw Geno.

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.
