The GM of deBrewliner took the second overall pick and handled it like a seasoned professional. After putting their sweet drafting skills on display for the rest of the league, they're left with a squad that's projected to finish first in Hiawatha Premier League with a record of 11-2-0 (1,215 points). RB depth won't be the issue this season as deBrewliner loaded up, drafting Adrian Peterson (2nd overall), Giovani Bernard (23rd), and Zac Stacy (26th) with their first three selections. If these players can play up to expectations, deBrewliner can have some success. They are the top group of RBs in the league.
Week 4 is not looking like a fun one for fantasy football. deBrewliner should look into the joys of scrapbooking, or bird-watching, or just keep deBrewliner away from the TV. It won't be pretty. They have five players and the most projected fantasy points on bye that week. Looking at the entire season, they have a weaker-than-average slate. Despite having the fifth-easiest overall schedule, deBrewliner actually has the league's second-toughest first four games and second-most difficult last four games of the season.
Draft Notes
-
Stockpiling Talent at RB

-
A Low Floor, but a High Ceiling?
deBrewliner nabbed a sleeper in Markus Wheaton with pick No. 170.
-

Player Analysis
-
- A. Peterson, RB
- Round 1, Pick 2
Does Adrian Peterson Enjoy Gourmet Cuisine?Because his projected yardage figures are tasty. Peterson is ranked fifth in the league with 1,642 all-purpose yards.
-
- G. Bernard, RB
- Round 2, Pick 23
Old FashioneddeBrewliner stuck to the tried-and-true fantasy strategy of going RB-RB to start the draft, taking Adrian Peterson and Giovani Bernard before targeting other positions.
-
- Zac Stacy, RB
- Round 3, Pick 26
He's a Touchy, Feely Kind of GuyWith 295 touches, Zac Stacy is projected to rank ninth in the NFL in that category. How touching, deBrewliner.
-
- Rob Gronkowski, TE
- Round 4, Pick 47
Stolen In Broad DaylightRob Gronkowski was the best value pick of the round and could be the cause of many sleepless nights for the other managers.
-
- T.Y. Hilton, WR
- Round 6, Pick 71
Was T.Y. Hilton the Best Choice at a Pick at No. 71?deBrewliner apparently thinks so. The Colts' wideout is projected to get 141 points this year, just a bit better than last year.

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.
