Draft Analysis: Team Grades

Grades- just like any good Duke (right) grading curve no matter how bad you drafted no one gets lower than a C.

Tackle Me Elmo: Drafting LT automatically gets 7 wins in a season. Drafting the way the Elmo did in rounds 2-14 keeps it there. Grade: B

Crimson Pride: Adrian Peterson aside, this teams starters are basically a compilation of average fantasy football players- no obvious dogs, but no one that will really go off- sadly in this league that puts you in the top 20 percentile. Grade B+

HappyvalleyCoastals: I hate to throw the term “perfect draft” around loosely but in this case its warranted. Sure you can look at the number two ranked QB, the number 3 ranked RB and 3 top 15 WRs and say to yourself “ my what a really strong draft” but what really had people double checking their draft sheets was picking up chris perry 4 days before it was even announced Rudi Johnson was going to be cut. Grade: A+

SteelCurtain: Brady is Brady, nuff said and with carnell Williams out on IR earnest graham becomes the man in Tampa, throw in a couple strong WR and you got yourself a pretty good little team. Grade A

Bigapples: there are a few rules that I have found to always hold true in life: 1) buy low, sell high, 2) When your ready to quit your usually closer than you think, 3) It's only gay if there's eye contact, and 4) chris will draft running backs for 4 out of his five first picks. Grade: B

Savemepurplejebus- fantasy experts keep preaching that Steven Jackson’s groin is fully recovered and he will return to his ff god-like form- what form is that- hes had one good year in the NFL but every year people expect him to be Hershel Walker. Let me tell you a little story, my cousin used to be a math whiz until he fell out of a pickup truck when he was 12 and hit his head on the curb. He couldn't count his fingers after that. Did they let him into MIT anyway? No. No, they did not. End of story. Grade: B

Nadsofsteel: Ive cut Jason a little slack in the grading here since it was obvious he was more concerned with the fact he was not drafting from New Orleans than actually fielding a competitive team. Grade C+

Breach kid: If Nathan was Jason’s son and not his brother I would have said that the apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree- although in New Hampshire ive heard of some family trees branching in instead of out so my quote could still be apt. Grade: B-

Lightsout- you can tell a lot about a culture by their language. For example the Eskimos have 17 different words for the term snow. From Edwardo’s draft it can be seem that in Spanish there is no literal translation for ‘starting running back’. Grade: C

Ballsacks- if you get one of those green Styrofoam trays that grocery stores use to sell produce, and you cut a hole in the bottom, and put your testicles through the hole, and you walk around in the produce section going up to housewives asking "can you tell if these things are ripe?" you'll eventually get asked to leave the store. Grade C- (although owen daniels could have bumped this up to a C)

Dawnofanewday- I don’t know why but I like this team. At review 11 out of 12 we’ll leave it at that. Grade: A-

HoofHearted: At first this looked like a pretty solid draft but this weekend when I was checking out some teams from other leagues I notice a striking resemblance between this team and the one drafted by Adam Schimmel. Grade: B+/2
