With the first overall pick, DIDDY put on a show for the competition. Drafting a complete team capable of winning week in and week out, they're projected to finish second in Super Stars League with a record of 10-3-0 (2,302 points). They used their first three picks on wideouts Antonio Brown (1st overall), Mike Evans (16th), and Keenan Allen (17th), giving them a competitive "500" team that should dominate the playground in no time. DIDDY will rely heavily on this group, as they are the highest-scoring group of WRs in the league.

DIDDY should use Week 8 to consider life's deeper mysteries, like why don't the pants worn by Dr. Bruce Banner rip when he transforms into the Hulk? It's better to think about that than pay attention to fantasy football. They have four players and the most projected fantasy points on bye that week. Looking at the season as a whole, they have the lightest slate. Along with the easiest overall schedule, both the first four games and last four games of the season are pretty average for DIDDY.

    Feed Thy Beast

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. As a wise man once said, "On any given Sunday..."
