Almost 2 hours of waiting and approximately 10 minutes of actual drafting is what we all went through during last night’s historic draft. Yahoo has kindly given us their grades so let’s get to it:
A+ to Kyle and Tillett
Tillett takes top honors and with first overall pick this should be expected. Tillett is below average vs. the league at RB and WR though, which makes me wonder who he knows at Yahoo to get the best draft grade. (If it’s the spicy new CEO, give her my kind regards)
Kyle shows the league he means business with his masterful drafting. Starting at the 11th overall pick he gained above average players at all positions vs. the rest of the league. He must have some inside info with his fancy government access. (PRISM finally used for some good!)
A to Charlie and Marc
It’s uncanny how these two stick together like two peas in a bromance pod.
Marc may have the edge over Charlie with his crafty RB drafting and Charlie’s fumble at TE. With the 15th overall pick this was an impressive draft and as luck would have it he also has the easiest schedule in the league based on initial starters.
Charlie plays the keeper league to his advantage with the youngest starting group at an average of 3.8 years in the NFL and still manages a strong team. What a Dealer he is.
B+ to Matt C
Matt stands alone as the only B+. A solid draft through the first half had him gunning for an A+ but his gambles on the second half netted him the least projected total points. Let’s hope the gamble pays off!
5 Players take B (Conneaut Joe, Brian Crez, Panya, Nick H, and Timmy Derp)
Joe took a crappy 17th overall pick and made a strong team even with his first two pick’s being QBs and waiting until the 5th to pick his first RB. Not sure how you did it Joey but that deserves a Deal in my book.
Crez uses some Golden Flash power to turn his 10th slot into a formidable team. Let’s hope Tony Romo isn’t the slouch he has been in years past.
Panya drinks beers with Brian Lilley-Testa and puts together a strong team. Above average everywhere except RB and Def he should make any matchup a tough one.
Nick H turns his 7th overall draft slot into an above average team. He gambled on Lamar Miller early with hopes of big things.
Timmy Derp balanced fantasy football and family as he drafted at the hospital simultaneously while the newest member of the Stiffler family was being birthed. I say you should feed Jamaal Charles some of that placenta goodness so maybe he doesn’t stub a toe and miss the entire season. Also, congrats are in order.
B- to Bob and our fearless commish, Brian LL
Taking the 19th and 20th (respectively) draft slots, both Bob and Brian LL made lemonade out of lemons.
Bob puts together a respectable team and earns an easier than average schedule to put him as a team to watch!
Brian LL drinks most of the beers with Panya and somehow makes a decent team. Taking a page out of Charlie’s book, he put his hopes and dreams on the steamy shoulders of Reggie Bush. As long as Kim K stays away Brian may have a shot!
Mike Dilger, Nick F, Scott, and Joe K settle on C
There isn’t much to say about a C. It’s good and bad, up and down, so and so.
Mike Dilger pushes the limit as he logged in with seconds to spare for the draft start. Decent draft starting at the 14th draft slot.
Nick grabs some seasoned veterans with hopes of good things for all.
Scott suffers from a tough schedule that could prove disastrous unless he can make some magic happen.
Joe K has just about average players across the board vs. the rest of the league. Doug Martin will need a repeat year to keep this team in contention
Joe D earns a solid D+
Joe squandered an 8th overall slot in the draft with gamble after gamble. Unless he is the absolute guru of fantasy football, this is going to be a rough year. Note: his internet cut out for 3 picks…he was going to go to Brian LL’s house too but when he drove by at 8:00 typical Brian was still at the bar. (Joe, you should have expected that)
Big Matty M, GJ, and our other faithful Commish, Shaun, bring up the rear with Ds (no pun intended)
Matt entrusted his draft to his POA while working hard to support the CCF and loses big. He should split this year’s dues with whoever drafted for him as punishment.
GJ’s team was a powerhouse…2-3 years ago! Taking studs from many years past seems like another page out of Charlie’s old book.
Shaun. Shaun, Shaun, Shaun. What have you done? Maybe Eddie Lacy will turn out to be a stud. Maybe the Browns will win the super bowl too.
All in all a very well attended and participated in draft. The banter was there, the dirty jokes, the smack talk, and even some polite compliments. Keep it up men. Here’s to a successful and enjoyable year!
The Dealer signing off with a DEAL!
