Malakopolis received the fifth pick in the draft and used it to build a juggernaut. The majority of the league will spend the season looking up at Malakopolis in the standings, as they are expected to finish second in #PSIFFL League with a record of 10-3-0 (2,819 points). They wanted to shore up any RB concerns early, using three of their first five draft picks to draft RBs Ezekiel Elliott (first round), Le'Veon Bell (second round), and Carlos Hyde (fourth round). If these players can play up to expectations, Malakopolis can have some success. They are the top group of RBs in the league.
Week 8 might require some artful managing from Malakopolis. They have seven players and the most projected fantasy points on bye that week. Looking at the entire season, they have the lightest slate. Malakopolis has the opportunity to start and finish with a flurry, as both the first four games and final 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. 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.
