Selecting in the bottom half of the first round (eighth overall), Mesa-Macon Mud Dawgs was unable to conjure up any fantasy magic. With a projected record of 2-12-0 (1,366 points), they’re picked to finish 14th in BBG Gauntlet 2013 League. Mesa-Macon Mud Dawgs loaded up on ballcarriers early, using three of their first five picks to scoop up RBs Jamaal Charles (first round), Stevan Ridley (third round), and Lamar Miller (fourth round). Going hand-in-hand with that early investment, they acquired one of the best foursomes of RBs in the league.

The Season Ahead
With the most players (4) and most projected fantasy points on bye, Week 6 figures to be a difficult one for Mesa-Macon Mud Dawgs. From the perspective of opponents’ projected points, they have the most challenging schedule in the league. Mesa-Macon Mud Dawgs has the opportunity to start quickly, as the first four games of their season are projected to be less difficult than the league average. However, their closing stretch of four games is expected to be tougher than average. An especially easy stretch appears to start in Week 3, during which Mesa-Macon Mud Dawgs plays projected bottom-tier teams for two consecutive games.
