Eleven of our twelve teams were represented during the online draft on Wednesday night. Here is an analysis of the results (in draft order):
1. Yuengling Brewers: After selecting the consensus #1 pick the Brew Crew added a LOT of Eagles. That's not necessarily a bad thing. But they're a little light at RB. Grade: C (Yahoo! Grade: D+)
2. Phys. Ed. Phenoms: The Best Draft Award went to PEP for the third time in their eleven 3FL drafts, but I'm not quite seeing it. They have a solid team, sure, and maybe taking a flyer on a WR with a six game suspension will work out. But that QB situation should drop them down a touch. Grade: A- (Yahoo! Grade: A+)
3. the HAW: I would have awarded the best draft to the CAPS this year. Solid from top to bottom, and the best K and Defense in the rankings. They just have to hope the starters stay healthy. Grade: A (Yahoo! Grade: B-)
4. Predacons: Jahmyr Gibbs is in the backfield again for the defending champs, which should be helpful. But they also repeated their classic draft strategy, waiting too long for a QB. Grade: B- (Yahoo! Grade: C)
5. Dumbbums: Coach Coaldog pulled an A- this year and I feel like that's just about right. The AFC North is very well represented, making up five starters and six players overall. Grade: A- (Yahoo! Grade: A-)
6. Renegades: It's not as bad for the Renegades as the report card would have you believe. They'll be fine, especially if their stars can shine. Grade: C (Yahoo! Grade: D+)
7. Baltimorons: CeeDee Lamb and Puka and Mahomes should rank a team above average I'd think. There are some troublemakers on the bench though. Grade: C+ (Yahoo! Grade: C+)
8. Marauders: This team is quite good until you get to the FLEX spot. Coach Hoss is going to have to make some tough decisions there. Plus his K might not be kicking in week 1. Grade: C- (Yahoo! Grade: D)
9. Stiletto Stompers: Coach Bev's squad seems to be right down the middle. Some good, some bad, some that we'll have to wait and see. Grade: C (Yahoo! Grade: B-)
10. Lightning: There is lots to like for the Bolts. They'll need some of the players to return to glory, but they've chosen a solid overall team. As long as you're ok watching Kyler Murray under center. Grade: A- (Yahoo! Grade: A+)
11. Misfits, Inc.: Our only team that was fully autodrafted by Yahoo! received the worst draft grade by Yahoo!? Hmm. Perhaps they should have picked different guys, or at least not made Coach Tim-A root for Dak. Grade: D+ (Yahoo! Grade: D-)
12. Spiked Vipers: So SpiVi went with Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson back-to-back at the first turn. I'm still trying to decipher that strategy since it seemed to bring down all the other positions. But maybe after a trade (or something?) it will become more clear. Grade: D+ (Yahoo! Grade: D)
The Comm-nosticator makes his first predictions soon. Stay tuned.
