Blessed with a juicy draft position (No. 2 overall), Butler Jets had an exceptional performance. The team is notably talented at the running back position, as Saquon Barkley and Le'Veon Bell are expected to combine for the highest point total of all starting RB groups in the league. Butler Jets are projected to finish 1st in Payton34 FFL with a record of 9-1-3 (1,587 points).
- DeSean Jackson
Biggest Steal: Butler Jets scored a great late-round bargain when they selected Jackson at No. 170, about four rounds later than his ADP of 122. Coming off a season in which he racked up 41 catches for 774 yards and 4 TDs in 12 games, totaling 118 fantasy points, Jackson is projected to score 123 fantasy points with the Eagles. That makes him a valuable No. 3 WR for this squad.
- Cooper Kupp
Going out on a Limb: You may have been a little overeager when making the decision to select Kupp at No. 44, about 21 picks earlier than his ADP of 65. Then again, maybe you're onto something. Projected to score 132 fantasy points this season with the Rams, he seems set to surpass last year when he hauled in 40 balls for 566 yards and 6 TDs in 8 games, totaling 103 fantasy points. Kupp will slot in as the No. 2 WR for Butler Jets, based on projected points.
Draft Notes
-
Week 8 will present a difficult challenge for Butler Jets, as they have three players on a bye (Dak Prescott, Tony Pollard, and Justice Hill). Luckily, Miami Mini, your Week 8 opponent, will be confronting a similar struggle with two players (Mark Ingram II and Brett Maher) on a bye week.
-
Butler Jets have one of the best schedules in Payton34 FFL this season according to projected records with a strength of schedule ranked as the 2nd easiest.
-
It's clear that Butler Jets focused on scooping up elite talent, having compiled a fairly front-loaded squad. The top players from each position, combined, are really powerful, forecasted to score the 2nd-highest point total in Payton34 FFL. The rest of the roster, alternatively, doesn't inspire quite as much optimism, as they're predicted to put up a point total that ranks in the middle of the pack.

With the selection of WR Will Fuller V at No. 86, Butler Jets took advantage of the WR/RB/TE flex position for the first time after filling all of the individual offensive positions in the draft.

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.
