Coach Talk

Gabriel Gray's Team

Billy W's Bold Team
It's entirely possible that Billy W's Bold Team would be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. Accumulating only 10 targets combined this past week, their five starting pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) apparently contributed to their respective offenses by blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
