Despite drawing the No. 4 overall pick, I’m Pickle Rick! drafted a roster that will have trouble winning. Opponents are likely to enjoy beating them on a weekly basis, as this team is projected to finish 10th in Double Stuff Racing League. On the bright side, the team is particularly talented at the receiver position, as DeAndre Hopkins and Amari Cooper are expected to combine for the 3rd-highest point total of all starting WR groups in the league. I’m Pickle Rick! are looking at a record of 4-9 (1,842 points).
- Sammy Watkins
Biggest Steal: I’m Pickle Rick! scored a great late-round bargain when they chose Watkins in the 15th round, about four rounds later than his ADP of 127. Coming off a season in which he hauled in 52 passes for 673 yards and 3 TDs in 13 games, totaling 119 fantasy points, Watkins is projected to score 162 fantasy points with the Chiefs. That makes him the No. 6 WR for this squad.
- J.K. Dobbins
Going out on a Limb: Either you know something everybody else doesn't or you jumped the gun with your selection of Dobbins with the 9th pick in the 6th round, about 21 spots earlier than his ADP of 90. Dobbins is projected to score 192 fantasy points this season with the Ravens. Dobbins will slot in as the No. 3 RB for I’m Pickle Rick!, based on projections.

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.
