In Spite of an Exciting Group of WRs, Christopher's Team are Good Enough to Barely Miss Playoffs
Draft Summary
Drafting in the back half of the first round (No. 6 overall), Christopher's Team can blame this poor performance on their unfortunate draft position. With a projected record of 5-9 (1,821 points), this team strikes fear in the heart of no one. While Michael Thomas and Odell Beckham Jr. are slated to combine for the highest point total of all starting WR groups in the league, Christopher's Team are predicted to finish 7th in Yahoo Public 12704.
- Michael Gallup
Best Pick
What a late-round value for Christopher's Team, who got Gallup at No. 95, about 14 slots later than his ADP of 81. Following a season in which he grabbed 66 passes for 1,107 yards and 6 TDs in 14 games, totaling 180 fantasy points, Gallup is projected to score 200 fantasy points with the Cowboys. That makes him a valuable No. 4 WR for this squad.
- D'Andre Swift
Going out on a Limb
You must know something we don't. There's no other reason you would draft Swift with the 6th pick of the 5th round, about 19 slots earlier than his ADP of 65. Swift is projected to score 165 fantasy points this season with the Lions. Swift will slot in as the No. 2 RB for Christopher's Team, based on projected points.
Draft Notes
-
With only three quarterbacks off the board, Christopher's Team saw a run developing and got in early, taking Russell Wilson at No. 55 overall. Five more quarterbacks went off the board in the round that followed.
-
Better late than never. With the selection of RB Jonathan Taylor (No. 35 overall), you became the last owner in the league to draft a running back.
-
According to projections, Christopher's Team have one of the least daunting schedules in Yahoo Public 12704 this season with a strength of schedule rated as the 3rd easiest.
-
In spite of openings at QB, RB, and TE in the 3rd round, Christopher's Team selected WR Odell Beckham Jr. with the 26th pick, filling the WR/RB/TE flex position instead of a higher leverage position. They were the first squad to make their first flex pick.

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.
