The WATD Fantasy Draft is back! It’s the first week of the playoffs, and everyone is ready to put on their best performance. With the South Shore’s top stars to choose from, the boys put together their draft boards.
We’ll continue selecting one quarterback, two running backs, and two wide receivers, and this year we’ve added one team defense.

In a bit of friendly competition, we’ll see whose squad wins out each week.
Statistics will be used to calculate points on a modified fantasy scale, with touchdowns worth six points, quarterbacks receiving one point per 25 yards passed, and every 10 yards rushing or receiving earning one point as well.
Defensively, points will be strictly based on how many points a team surrenders. A shutout earns 10 points, while 1 to 6 points allowed earns 8, 7 to 13 earns 6, 14 to 20 earns 4, 21 to 27 earns 2, 28 to 34 earns 1, and 35+ does not earn any.
Week 8 Draft Results
While the final scores are not entirely completed, it was another tightly contested week.
Quinn’s Squad appears to have the inside track to the win, thanks to a balanced effort headlined by a big day for Jose Touron (Taunton). The Tigers’ senior wideout hauled in 9 catches for 125 yards and a TD.
The performance of the week went to Tyler Holmes (West Bridgewater; Johnny’s Squad) however, as the running back punched in five touchdowns. Shane Wright (Archie’s, Brendan’s Squad) feasted as well, rumbling for 227 yards and a score.
Week 9 Draft
Though the prior week’s results were not finalized, the order was determined to be Brendan selecting first, Johnny second, and Quinn third.
