Having the top pick in the draft doesn't always lead to championships. But, in this case, it's going to. JUST BRING IT did what professional fantasy footballers do when they land the No. 1 overall pick and built a juggernaut. They are projected to finish in first place in NFL Destructions League with a mark of 14-0-0 (9,318 points). They went all-in on running backs early, using their first three selections to grab LeSean McCoy (1st overall), Marshawn Lynch (12th), and Arian Foster (13th). They built the worst group of WRs in the league, as they have Wes Welker, Pierre Garcon, Roddy White, and DeSean Jackson on their team.
Week 10 might require some waiver-wire magic from JUST BRING IT. They have eight players and the most projected fantasy points on bye that week. Taking a look at the entire season from start to finish, they have the softest schedule. Corresponding with the easiest overall schedule, JUST BRING IT also has the second-easiest first 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.
