If you can't handle the heat, get out of the draft room. Dead Again wilted under the pressure of this draft. Picking No. 13 overall, they were clearly ill-equipped. Dead Again are projected to finish 11th in OklahomIraqis League NFC with a record of 4-9 (2,351 points).

  • Kyler Murray

Best Pick: What a nice early value for Dead Again, who selected Murray with the 13th pick of the 5th round, about 17 picks later than his ADP of 52. After a rookie season in which he threw for 3,722 yards and 20 TDs with 12 interceptions and racked up 544 yards and 4 TDs, totaling 363 fantasy points, Murray is projected to score 425 fantasy points with the Cardinals. That makes him a valuable No. 1 QB for this squad.

  • Phillip Lindsay

Regression Candidate: The RB is expected to take the biggest step back from last year among the offensive picks by Dead Again. After a season in which he rushed for 1,011 yards and 7 TDs and hauled in 35 passes for 196 yards, totaling 198 fantasy points, Lindsay is projected to score 161 fantasy points with the Broncos, a 19% drop. That would make him the No. 3 RB for this squad.

Draft Notes

  • Patience is a virtue. You became the last manager in the league to draft a running back with your selection of Jonathan Taylor (No. 44 overall).

  • Week 11 will bring a difficult challenge for Dead Again, as they have five players on a bye (Sam Darnold, David Montgomery, Mike Gesicki, Zack Moss, and Robbie Gould). The Dogs of War, your Week 11 opponent, won't be quite as limited with only two players (Le'Veon Bell and Chicago) on a bye week.

  • Dead Again have one of the most daunting schedules in OklahomIraqis League NFC this season according to projected records with a strength of schedule that ranks as the 3rd-most difficult. Don't lose hope, though. Strength of schedule is just a number. There are countless paths to improve your team over the course of the season for managers who remain involved.

  • Even with an opening remaining at WR in the 7th round, Dead Again drafted RB Zack Moss with the 97th pick, filling the WR/RB flex position rather than a position of higher importance. They were the fourth-to-last 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. As a wise man once said, "On any given Sunday..."
