Taking advantage of having the final pick in the first round, Luke's Glorious Team was able to orchestrate a masterful draft. They're projected to finish atop QB-League League with a record of 12-2-0 (4,117 points). They recognize a team can only go as far as its quarterback, drafting Drew Brees (6th overall) and Matt Ryan (7th) with their first two picks. A lot will be expected of this group, as they are an above-average QB combo.
Week 9 could be a frustrating one for Luke's Glorious Team, as their top two projected scorers (Baltimore and Seattle) will be off with byes. Looking at the entire season, they have the least challenging slate. Along with having the easiest overall schedule, Luke's Glorious Team also has the league's easiest first four games and second-softest last four games of the season.
