R C's Team took the third overall pick and wove it into fantasy gold with an expected finish of first in Stampede Blue League 7 League. Their 11-2-0 projected record is no joke and opponents will need to pull out all the stops if they hope to knock off R C's Team. They stocked up on pass catchers right out of the gate, using their top three selections to snag WRs Julio Jones (3rd overall), Brandin Cooks (22nd), and Alshon Jeffery (27th). A lot will be expected of this group, as they are the highest-scoring group of WRs in the league.
Whether by good fortune or well-planned strategy, R C's Team has secured a favorable bye week schedule for their superstars. Of their top five players in projected points, none share a common off week. Based on their opponents' projected points, they have one of the least difficult schedules. Although they have the fourth-easiest overall schedule, R C's Team actually has the toughest first four games of the season.
