The poor draft position for Edjr's Team proved too great an obstacle to overcome. After selecting seventh overall, they're projected to finish eighth in What's the Bea Police? League with a record of 3-11-0 (1,976 points). Edjr's Team loaded up on pass-catching weapons early on, using four of their first seven selections to acquire WRs Roddy White (fourth round), Danny Amendola (fifth round), Reggie Wayne (sixth round), and Steve Smith (seventh round). They ended up with the least prolific combo of QBs in the league, as they scooped up Michael Vick and Tony Romo.
The Season Ahead
Week 8 looks to be a tough one for Edjr's Team. Among all weeks this season, it has both their largest number of players (4) and projected fantasy points on bye. From a projected points standpoint, they have a more-difficult-than-average slate. In addition to having the fourth-most grueling overall schedule, Edjr's Team has the league's toughest first four games and second-softest last four games of the season. The fate of Edjr's Team might be determined starting in Week 2, as they play the projected top teams in the league for three straight weeks.
Draft Notes
Sturdiest Slot: On a team with three better-than-average positions, TE is the best player grouping on Edjr's Team (65.4% above the league average for that group).
Biggest Reach: Edjr's Team may have reached a bit for their ninth-round choice. Eddie Lacy, taken with the 71st overall pick, has an ADP of 87.2 across all Yahoo! leagues.
Team of Champions: Edjr's Team has a lineup sprinkled with proven fantasy winners. Across all Yahoo! leagues last season, three of their players finished among the top 20 in percentage of times on a championship roster. They include Ray Rice, Jimmy Graham, and Reggie Wayne.
Earning Your Paycheck: Edjr's Team will have some tricky calls to make each week at RB, with a slim projected points difference between their third- (Darren McFadden), fourth- (Ryan Mathews), and fifth-ranked (Eddie Lacy) RBs.
QB Controversy?: The coach of Edjr's Team might need to flip a coin. Their top-drafted QB (Tony Romo) and second-drafted QB (Michael Vick) have very similar seasonal point projections.
It's How You Finish: Edjr's Team had a strong finish, accumulating the most projected points in the league over the second half of the draft.
