Collusion might be the only way to stop Caribbean Bombers this year, as they are projected to finish in first place in Super Stars League with a record of 11-2-0 (2,258 points). They didn't target any one position early, selecting QB Tom Brady (33rd overall), RB David Johnson (1st), WR T.Y. Hilton (17th), and TE Travis Kelce (32nd) within the first five rounds. They finished the draft with the most prolific TE tandem in the league, as they have Kelce and Kyle Rudolph on their team.
Week 9 might require some artful managing from Caribbean Bombers. They have five players and the most projected fantasy points on bye that week. Taking a look at the season from start to finish, they have the easiest schedule. Along with having the easiest overall schedule, Caribbean Bombers also has the softest last four games of the season.
Draft Notes
-
Great Idea, Poor Execution

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.

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.
