What's important 4th and Inches is that you have fun, regardless of the final score. Like that quote from Vince Lombardi, "Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing." Oh wait no, that's not the right quote for this. Turns out there aren't many quotes about having fun and losing, so let's just get to the projections. 4th and Inches is expected to finish 11th in MIC WARS League with a record of 5-8-0 (1,534 points). RB depth won't be the issue this season as 4th and Inches loaded up, drafting Adrian Peterson (4th overall), Zac Stacy (25th), and Reggie Bush (32nd) with their first three selections. 4th and Inches will rely heavily on this group, as they are the best group of RBs in the league.
4th and Inches should just disappear for a while during Week 10. They have five players and the most projected fantasy points on bye that week. Looking at the season as a whole, they have a weaker-than-average schedule. 4th and Inches has the opportunity to finish the season on a hot streak, as the last four games of their season are projected to be less difficult than the league average.

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.
