FFC West
1.) Game of Zones – I think this team has two potential gunslingers in Aaron Rodgers and Tua Tagovailo. Rodgers has been an elite QB for years now and Tua has an arsenal of weapons to throw to the ball to. This team is stacked at the WR position and currently has starting AJ Brown, Garret Wilson, Stefon Diggs, and Zay Flowers all potential BOOM players and they have a solid bench behind them. This teams RBs though are going to be tough. Zack Moss being RB is sketchy to say the least, especially with how much Josh Allen runs. And lets not forget, they currently don’t have a kicker.
Grade – B-

2.) Philippine Garbage Dumps – When I saw this team drafted 3 RBs to start the draft I thought it could be a long year for Christian. However, I don’t think his team is as bad as I originally thought. He quietly added Godwin, Kelce, and Hopkins for starting receivers and his RB depth is solid which could help him grab some bigger WRs later. I love Purdy at QB, but Daniel Jones doesn’t deserve a roster spot. I think this team is very well rounded.

3.) Sacramento Wolf Pack – I’m a little worried with having Richardson, Taylor, and Pittman all on this team. I’ve done it once before and it didn’t work out well for me having QB, RB1, and WR1 for the same team. This team is going to really bank on the Colts being an All-Star team and I don’t think they are quite there. I really liked the Zahmir White pick and I think he is going to have a really good year this year. I think this team is going to have their work cut out for them this year.

4.) Spartans – Doubling up on Samuel and Kittle is going to be tough, if that’s how the roster pans out. I think you Stroud is going to have another monster year and he is really going to help your team out. You’re 1 and 2 WR combo is going to be solid I think but your depth dies off slightly after that. I can never count this team out though as they are always hustling to make trades happen and to help better their odds of making playoffs, this year I just think they have more work than normal.

1.) Neighbor Nic (until his name has been decided)- This is kind of an interesting team for me. All his WRs I view as number 2’s (yes I still think Cooper Kupp is going to be #1 in LA). However, they are all number 2’s on incredibly high scoring teams and all have big potential on any given week. The RB depth is really sketchy to me and I am not fully sold on Jacobs in GB yet. One thing I do really like is the stack with Nacua and Stafford.

2.) Mahomies Nuts – Talk about a geriatric lineup, this team was built on the oldies lol. That said I don’t hate this team by any means. I think the starting positions are strong. You have 2 strong running backs with Barkley and Jones, 2 strong receivers with Adams and Andrews, and a QB that I was really trying to target entering the draft today. The depth to this team does scare me a little as I think there is a real drop off and there were some guys that could have been drafted later than where you took them.

3.) Gandalf the Goat – Here comes another Casey Superbowl run with Josh Allen. Look guys I tried taking it from him last year and the magic didn’t work for me lol. Another solid draft by Casey, his starting lineup is scary to look at and I don’t really see any glaring holes as of right now. This team may be a little Boom/Bust on certain weeks, but I think it will be hard to see all these guys having down weeks. I think this team once again is going to be making a run into the playoffs baring anything crazy happening.

4.) Slam Ball 2k24 – Dak Prescott at QB again, this team just can’t get enough of him lol. The only concern is which Dak are you going to get this year. I absolutely love the Hill and Kupp combo as those 2 guys are going to be scary to watch on a weekly basis. I think RB is a little weak for starters but you have so much depth that I think one of the guys is eventually going to land in the starting roll and stick there for you.

FFC North
1.) Isla Sorna Raptors – I don’t really know how to react to this team, I really like Hurts, Gibbs, and DJ Moore. However, on the flip side I hate James Conner (personal vendetta) and I’m not sold on Kirk or Reed. That’s not saying that neither of these 3 have potential to have good years, it’s just my personal feeling on them. I do think that this team will be utilizing some TE’s at some point this year however in both Fergy and Goedert.

2.) Jedi Knight(s) – I think we are down to a single Jedi Knight now, and he ended up taking Chase again lol. However, I do like the starting line up better for this team this year compared to last year. I think you are going to have a little concern at the receiver position taking 2 TEs as early as you did though. I think there were a lot of startable WRs available still. I like Kenneth Walker as a solid running back to set it and forget it.

3.) Pool of the Dead – The CHAMP IS HERE! Who would have ever in their right mind thought that Justin Jefferson would fall to pick number 9 this draft. I tell you one person who wouldn’t, DA MOON when he traded this pick away! I like this team, you have some good depth at WR and have 2 number one’s for their respective team in Jettas and Harrison Jr. and I think Pitts is finally utilized more with Cousins there. You have 2 startable RBs and I think you might have a sleeper or two on your bench.

4.) Cloud 9 – Goodbye Marvin….Hello Marvin, may be the shortest time a GM has been away from the league lol. I think Bijan at 2 was a solid pick. I know all of the FFC South was really high on him this year and I know it crushed Nav when you took him. I think the biggest concern I see is your receiving group. With that said they are guys that can easily put up 20 points a week as well, just might have some weeks were you are wondering if they even played. I like the depth of this team beyond that and it seems like both these two GMs together could maybe be a new secret weapon.

FFC South
1.) Da Moons Huge Craters – The Moon took a couple huge emotional hits tonight when they saw Jettas fall to #9 which was their original spot before trading to fall back to pick 16, and having Kirk Cousins taken off the board before he could draft him. Caleb Williams is going to be a big question mark on this team for me. I don’t like him personally, but I think there is so much talent around him in Chicago that it’s also hard to fail. There is a lot of depth at RB on this team as they have always loved the position. I’m scared that Nabers is the #1 receiver on this team and Pickens is #2 behind. I think both have shaky QB’s at best but these are teams that will likely be behind in a lot of football games and have a need to throw.

2.) Doctor Jenious – Trading back out of the #1 spot seems to be a trend of late, which I thank you for. I really like the starting line up for this team, St. Brown is almost as guaranteed a lock at WR as you can get and I think Achane is primed for an absolute monster year. Jerome Ford is going to be a great start in the beginning of the year but I think it’s going to tough once Chubb returns. However, there is a lot of depth to this team I think and they will be able to make changes when that happens.

3.) Uur UPS – While you weren’t able to get your guy in Bijan, Breece is not a bad consolation prize by any means. If Rodgers is healthy I think it opens up so much more potential for him as well. I like that you went back to Jordan Love and got the stack with Watson as I still think he is going to be the #1 WR in GB. The rest of your WR’s are also solid with DK and Cooper. Out of your starting lineup the only guy that I’m not completely sold on is Gus Edwards, and that’s because he wills still have competition with JK Dobbins (if he can ever stay healthy).
