Coinciding with a juicy draft position (first overall), Bullet Club had an outstanding performance. They're projected to finish second in Titan Cup West League with a record of 11-3-0 (1,622 points). They stocked up on pass-catching weapons early on, using three of their first five selections to pick up WRs Antonio Brown (first round), Brandin Cooks (third round), and Eric Decker (fifth round). This group will have to produce in order for Bullet Club to have a good season, as they are the best group of WRs in the league.
Ever wonder what exactly was inside the briefcase in Pulp Fiction? Bullet Club should use Week 9 to solve the mystery, since they certainly won't be winning. They have five players and the most projected fantasy points on bye that week. Based on their opponents' projected points, they have one of the easiest schedules. Along with having the second-easiest overall schedule, Bullet Club also has the second-softest last four games of the season.
Draft Notes
-
May The Odds Be Ever In Your Favor
Bullet Club might need to consult a fortune teller each week. Their top-drafted QB (Carson Palmer) and second-drafted QB (Philip Rivers) have similar seasonal point projections.
-
Tough to Defend This One
Does Bullet Club get the reason behind drafting a back-up defense? In Week 9, both Arizona and New England will be on bye.
-
Close to the Vest
Bullet Club was focused on a squad with minimal volatility, grabbing nine "low-risk" players out of 16 picks.
-
Aging Stars
The top half of the roster (from a projected points perspective) is relatively old (ranked No. 1 in the league with an average of 8 years of NFL experience), whereas the bottom half is fairly young (ranked No. 9 with 4.3 years).
-
Fantasy FĂștbol
This is the American version, folks. Bullet Club elected to go with two kickers, rather than adding depth at other positions.
-
Team of Winners
Bullet Club is rocking a team of fantasy MVPs. Last season, three of their players were among the top-20 players that were on the most first-place fantasy teams (Antonio Brown, Mark Ingram, and Carson Palmer).
Player Analysis
-
- Antonio Brown, WR
- Round 1, Pick 1
Ambitious AntonioBullet Club fully endorses the wideout's quest for 150 receptions in 2016. Shoot for the moon, Mr. Brown. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars.
-
- Mark Ingram, RB
- Round 2, Pick 20
Mark Ingram Doesn't Read the PlaybookThe playbook reads him. Bullet Club should be in decent shape if Ingram gets his 290 projected touches this year.
-
- Carlos Hyde, RB
- Round 4, Pick 40
Rarely Seen in the WildWith 1,060 projected yards on the ground, Carlos Hyde is an elusive three-down back.
-
- Carson Palmer, QB
- Round 6, Pick 60
Was the 60th Pick the Right Time for Carson Palmer?Bullet Club apparently believes it is. The Cardinals' quarterback is projected to notch 283 points this year, after producing 309 last season.
-
- Travis Kelce, TE
- Round 7, Pick 61
A Big, Strong WeaponTravis Kelce ranks fifth in the Titan Cup West League among TEs with 122 projected fantasy points.
Best Available
TE and QB are expected to be the worst positions for Bullet Club and a potential area of need.

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.
