The Devy Notebook 2026: Volume 8

College Fantasy, Devy / By Evan Kerr / October 21, 2026

This week in college football was filled with upsets, disappointing performances, and a few injuries that shook up how we view our future devy assets. We won’t mince too many words with our introduction this week, as there is quite a bit to navigate from the information we were given from the games this past weekend.

The fallout of the Julian Sayin injury is going to be something to watch. My immediate reaction is that his season is over, which would likely mean that he returns to the Buckeyes for another season (if not 2) depending on his recovery and development. Luke Fahey was the first quarterback off the bench yet again, and if the Buckeyes come out of their bye week with Fahey as their starter, it absolutely ends Tavien St. Clair’s time in Columbus and crushes his devy value down to near 0.
A rumored injury that wasn’t. Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele started the game on the bench this weekend despite the word on the street being that he was “healthy enough to start”. This situation is a complete mess, and you can only imagine the frustrations that JKS is feeling. All signs are pointing to him finding a new home next season. I am still a very strong believer in the talent, as I am sure many of the top programs in the country will be too.
When the going got tough, Indiana found Charlie Becker. His natural gift is that he creates separation at the catch point rather than within the route. I am still skeptical about his translation to the next level due to his stiffness in his route running, but his hands are undeniably elite.
The worries for Naeem Burroughs continued this weekend as he caught only 2 passes for 19 yards in a blowout of Charleston Southern. It was his first offensive participation of the season, but I don’t know that we will see enough from him the remainder of the year to have any confidence in him as a true devy asset. He needs 81 more yards during the rest of conference play to get me to buy back in.
Jackson Harris is emerging as LSU’s top wide receiver after a slow start to the season. He caught six passes for 85 yards and two touchdowns against Mississippi State this weekend. The 6’2”, 205 lb. receiver is an 86th percentile athlete who profiles as an outside receiver. He was known for his deep-threat ability during his time at Hawaii, averaging nearly 20 yards per catch. He has good body control and contact balance, with strong instincts and functional play strength with the ball in his hands. If he continues this pace, he will find himself drafted late in day 2 or early in day 3 of the NFL draft.
The situation surrounding Arch Manning will be one to monitor. He has put nothing on tape to allow for a jump to the NFL this season, but it’s also hard to believe that Texas would want to go into next season with him as the starter. I genuinely have no idea why Steve Sarkisian refuses to run anything but an east-west offense, but it clearly does not benefit Manning’s skill set. If he does return to Texas, it could easily sour the relationship that the university has with Dia Bell.
On the topic of quarterbacks who are done at their current university, Bryce Underwood led the Michigan offense to zero points (yes, you read that correctly) in the first half against a terrible Penn State team. He was benched for Tommy Carr, and it appears the coaching staff is content to keep him as the long-term starter. Sometimes you just set 10-15 million dollars on fire.
Trinidad Chambliss has cemented himself as the top quarterback of the 2027 class. His size will give some people pause, but I am here to tell you that you can ignore that false narrative. He is just shy of Baker Mayfield in height and has a very similar “gamer” mentality about him that will win over whatever fan base he ends up playing for. He is accurate to all parts of the field and has effortless arm strength.
Kewan Lacy rushed the ball 16 times for 122 yards this weekend against a Missouri defense that has been stifling against the run this season. They completely bottled up fellow top prospect Jadan Baugh a few weeks ago, and Lacy may not be as far behind him as we once thought.

The Devy Notebook 2026: Volume 7

College Fantasy, Devy / By Evan Kerr / October 14, 2026

Conference play is in full swing now, and the picture is rapidly becoming clearer about which players we need to watch for the rest of the season. Unfortunately, it is also becoming clear which players we should move on from before it’s too late. Let’s find out who falls on each side of the line in this week’s edition of The Devy Notebook 2026.

It’s the second week of excuses for Isaac Brown, but that’s also due to the consistency of his poor play to begin the season. Keyjuan Brown was out for Louisville this weekend, and it led to 17 carries for Isaac Brown. The result of his increased share of the carries was 235 yards and 2 touchdowns, which included a 97-yard run where his game-breaking speed was on full display. This was the Isaac Brown we had come to know and love; I can only hope that it continues.
While we are discussing speed, the second fastest player of this week (clocked at 21.7 MPH) was BYU freshman wide receiver Legend Glasker. I will be honest, I’m still questioning how I truly feel about him as a true devy asset, but the speed pops and he is making an immediate impact as a freshman, which is always notable. He also ranks 6th in the FBS in missed tackles forced after the catch (8). He caught 5 passes for 99 yards and a touchdown against Iowa State, and we get a chance to really evaluate him when he takes on Notre Dame this coming weekend.
I spent last week discussing the vacant targets due to the numerous injuries in the Arizona receiving corps, but I was wrong about who would step into one of the most productive roles in college football. Sophomore wide receiver Isaiah Mizell caught 6 balls for 183 yards and 2 touchdowns. The 6’1” receiver has a slender 170 lb. frame but possesses elite speed, acceleration, and burst that make him a unique and dangerous weapon. He doesn’t have the route development and receiving acumen of a player like Xavier Worthy, who has similar athletic testing numbers, but there are some similarities we should be taking note of.
Jamal Roberts has the appropriate size and frame to be a relevant NFL running back. The 2027 class will likely be without Ahmad Hardy, but the 6’0”, 216 lb. backup, Jamal Roberts, is making the case to be a top-5 back in the class. Over his last two games, he has carried the ball 58 times for 433 yards and 5 touchdowns. It is worth noting that he faced Texas A&M and Florida in these matchups and not some FCS cupcakes. The performances do beg the question of how much the system makes a difference. It seems like every back to carry the ball for Missouri puts up gaudy stats, yet none of them tend to pan out at the next level.
I feel pretty strongly that Cayden Lee is a trap. I just mentioned that Missouri’s system tends to make players shine who might not otherwise, and Lee might be taking full advantage of it. I wanted to buy in during his three seasons at Ole Miss, but he never showed me anything worth truly investing in. I can’t change my tune now. His 100th percentile outcome is Danny Amendola.

The Devy Notebook 2026: Volume 6

College Fantasy, Devy / By Evan Kerr / October 8, 2026

We are nearing the halfway point of the college football season (I can’t believe I am already saying this), which means that it is time to decide whether or not a player’s ascension or descent is real. In other words, are the in-game results from the past few weeks believable? The most difficult thing about devy player evaluation is that it is easy to buy in heavily to a player without accepting the possibility that the ceiling could fall out at any point. Conversely, it is equally as easy to give up on a player that is struggling to make headlines when we really should be holding onto them for the long haul. We talk often at DFF about the volatility of college players’ value and why it is important to maintain a level head without being too emotional about your devy rosters one way or the other. It is my hope that this series can provide actionable information and advice on what to do with these players moving forward. That being said, it’s time to strap in for the latest edition of The Devy Notebook.

Mason Heintschel unfortunately suffered a torn ACL this weekend. This puts him out for the remainder of the 2026 college football season, but shouldn’t change anything about his overall stock. He has shown us plenty in the form of his natural arm talent to be able to feel good about where he stands. I also expect that he could find himself in the transfer portal on the move to a big-name college football program. This likely provides ample opportunity in C2C leagues to buy him from contending teams who will be frantically searching for a serviceable replacement.
The sky is officially falling on Bryce Underwood, and I would be shocked if he is still a Wolverine heading into next season. After a loss to Minnesota this weekend, it feels like a foregone conclusion that they will lose 6+ games this season. This will provide the new coaching staff ample opportunity to test what they have in freshman quarterback, Tommy Carr. Underwood was 10/21 for a measly 101 yards and 2 interceptions this weekend. It’s time to cut bait and move him for whatever we can. I would be interested in trying to move off of Underwood for a fringe-devy QB that has shown some promise, such as Austin Simmons or Jayden Maiava
Equally as concerning in the Michigan offense is Savion Hiter. The offense has been pathetic, and I never expect freshmen to take college football by storm (if they do, great), but what I am looking for is the occasional special play; something that reminds me why I was so bought into the player in the first place. Hiter has carried the ball 46 times this season, and his longest carry is 15 yards. He is averaging 3.2 yards per carry this season, and it’s hard to imagine that number improving. There has been almost nothing on tape that can be flagged as special to this point. This doesn’t mean that I am petitioning to drop him in my rankings. In fact, I still have him as the second running back in my freshman rankings and a top 5 back in all formats. Selling him now would be asinine, but my antenna is up.
Anthony Evans is not being talked about enough as a 2027 wide receiver prospect. He has seen elite usage this season and has a documented 10.27 100-yard dash speed. He makes big plays every single week and is always open at every level of the field. He finished this game with 12 catches for 166 yards and two touchdowns.

The Devy Notebook 2026: Volume 5

All Access, College Fantasy, Devy / By Evan Kerr / October 1, 2026

The first four weeks of the season in college football typically give us a glimpse into which freshmen are earning meaningful playing time. This week marked the beginning of conference play, which means we get to see if the players who have been crushing it to begin the year can continue their success against more difficult competition. Without further ado, dive into Volume 5 of The Devy Notebook.

A sleeper tight end made his mark against the reigning national champions. Luke Dehnicke transferred up from the G6 to Northwestern for his sophomore season and was arguably the best player on the field for either team this weekend. He is 6 ‘6 ” 240 lb. tight end with a strong athletic profile. He had 7 grabs for 140 yards in this one after registering 1,119 yards and 14 touchdowns for Minnesota Duluth last year. If he can string together more solid starts against similarly tough Big Ten defenses, his stock could soar.
I am starting to believe that Wake Forest wide receiver Carlos Hernandez could find himself getting drafted in the 2027 class. Every season there is a player who has an extremely strong production profile, and Hernandez is making the case to be this year’s version. He caught 9 balls for 194 yards and one touchdown in a win over a ranked Louisville team to crush their playoff aspirations. Coming into this week, he was tied with Jeremiah Smith for the most explosive plays in college football. He is tough and twitchy with the ball in his hands, forcing 12 missed tackles this year (first in the ACC). He also has an outstanding 4.34 YPRR.
We better hear some news soon that Isaac Brown has a nagging injury. He has very clearly been the second-best running back for Louisville this season and has not shown any of the explosiveness that we’ve seen in prior seasons. He rushed for only 3.7 ypc again this week. As it stands, I would strongly consider drafting Keyjuan Brown over Isaac Brown if faced with the decision.
We have seen nothing to inspire any level of confidence in Quinten Joyner through four games. His poor performances were capped off this weekend with 8 carries for 12 yards (1.5 yards per carry). He is still technically returning from a lower limb injury that kept him out of the 2025 season, and I suspect he will need next season to rehab his stock as well.
JJ Buchanan continued his consistent start to the 2026 season, totaling 130 yards and 2 touchdowns in a one-point loss to Iowa this weekend. He began his career as a tight end with Utah, but has already matched his production from last year in only four games. I would be surprised if his 6’4” frame transitions well at the position in the NFL, but I question if he wouldn’t consider a change back to tight end to be a matchup nightmare for an NFL offense. He also finds himself in the top 5 in all of college football for receiving yards per team pass attempt, which is one of the more predictive metrics for future fantasy success.

The Devy Notebook 2026: Volume 4

College Fantasy, Devy / By Evan Kerr / September 24, 2026

Welcome back to the fourth edition of the Devy Notebook 2026. We are inching closer to conference play, which will be the true test for most devy players that we care about, but that doesn’t mean that there weren’t some notes from this weekend’s games. Let’s see who made an impression this week.

Darian Mensah’s accuracy was truly on display this week. He completed 30/34 passes for 220 yards and 3 touchdowns. He will be one of the most difficult evaluations this season because only one defense will truly test Miami before the playoffs, and it won’t happen until November 7th against Notre Dame. If you have been following along with the Devy Notebook since its inception, you know that we have been on Darian Mensah since his time at Duke. It seems more and more likely that our deep shot from a couple of years ago becomes a first-round pick next spring.
The world was touting Jalen Lott. The devy community has been waiting for Gatlin Bair. But absolutely no one was expecting Oregon freshman Messiah Hampton to be a budding star. He caught 6 balls for 71 yards and two touchdowns this weekend against Portland State, which was 3 more catches and 46 more yards than Lott and Bair combined. It’s hard to make any recommendations off of one game against lower competition, but any freshman getting this type of playing time for a top-tier team should be stashed.
Darius Taylor did not play this week, and yet again he finds himself frequently on the injury report. I’ve said it before, and I will say it again: if your body cannot hold up against college competition, how can we ever expect it to hold up against the athletes in the NFL? If you own any Taylor shares, my best advice is to get out while you still can.
We saw glimpses of the old Justice Haynes this weekend against Mercer as he rushed for 141 yards and two touchdowns. Two average showings against Colorado and Tennessee in prior weeks left us underwhelmed and prevented him from getting his name in the recent first-round mock draft from DFF. We need to see more against better competition as conference play begins.
Many predicted a breakout season for Clemson running back Gideon Davidson this season. He had his best game of the year against UNC this past weekend, rushing for 105 yards and 1 touchdown. If you’re box score scouting, this line is encouraging. But we aren’t here for the box score. There were multiple runs that showed poor vision, slow feet, and poor lateral cutting ability. He is the type of runner that instills confidence in his opponents, not the other way around.

The Devy Notebook 2026: Volume 3

College Fantasy, Devy / By Evan Kerr / September 15, 2026

Welcome back to the third edition of the Devy Notebook 2026. It feels like the season is just beginning, and we’re only one weekend of games away from being 25% of the way through it. In a largely non-conference slate, it can be difficult to balance overreactions and underreactions, but I am here to sift through the relevant devy players for you and advise you on which players you should be paying attention to. Let’s see who made an impression during this week’s games.

Malachi Toney was at it again this weekend, quickly racking up 96 yards and a touchdown against a much lesser opponent in the first half. We have now seen through two weeks that Toney’s route tree is evolving and his aDOT is improving this season compared to last. It’s the first step we needed to start pushing him into the upper echelon of dynasty wide receivers. If he is going to be used down the field like this consistently, there is no reason to keep him out of the top 4 overall devy wide receivers.
Reed Harris looked like he could not be covered against Texas A&M. The 6’5”, 220 lb. wide receiver caught 9 passes for 189 yards and two touchdowns this weekend. He is a fluid mover off the line of scrimmage and shows some wiggle at the top of his route that helps him create easy separation. His frame also allows him to reel in contested catches along the sideline over smaller defensive backs. Add his name to an already deep 2027 wide receiver class.
Isaac Brown has always been known for his speed and athleticism. His efficiency as a runner is one of the biggest reasons why many of us drafted him in C2C leagues and were excited about him as an NFL prospect. Coming into this season, he would have received my vote for “which college running back can be the next De’Von Achane”, but despite similar volume to previous seasons, his efficiency has plummeted by nearly 5 yards per carry. Maybe it’s a lingering offseason injury that is keeping him from being as explosive, but without this explosiveness, his NFL stock is going to take a massive hit.
I cannot overstate how strongly I am beginning to believe in Fame Ijeboi as a future NFL player. His patience and vision at the line of scrimmage, followed by his ability to burst through open holes, have me intrigued, but perhaps the most enticing part of his game is his shiftiness despite being a thicker back. On multiple occasions, we have seen him use a dead leg or double stick to juke an oncoming defender. He also keeps his pad level low, which enables him to run through arm tackles and pick up yards after contact. He currently ranks as PFN’s 4th highest-graded running back through two weeks, behind only Jadan Baugh, Nate Sheppard, and Jamal Rule.

The Devy Notebook 2026: Volume 2

College Fantasy Football, Devy / By Evan Kerr / September 10, 2026

Labor Day weekend finally arrived, which typically marks the true beginning of any given college football season. Though the games featured many lopsided matchups, we still had plenty to look at across the devy landscape. The biggest challenge in the early part of the college football season is avoiding overreactions to performances, whether they be over or underwhelming. Though not as long as the NFL’s, the college football season still gives players plenty of time to bounce back in either direction. We have to remember that water always finds its level. In the second installment of The Devy Notebook 2026, I will examine what I saw during week one of the college football season and let you know whether to buy into a player or if you should hold the line and wait to see how things play out in the coming weeks. Let’s get into it.

The Devy Notebook 2026: Volume 1

College Fantasy, Devy / By Evan Kerr / September 2, 2026

It’s officially that time of year. No more talking about prospects and what we think they are capable of. No more victory laps after spring reports and camp news. The players stepped onto the field for the first time this past weekend, and despite the game slate being a lighter one, there are still plenty of takeaways for us devy fanatics.

This will now be the third season of The Devy Notebook. For anyone new here, this series was born out of my love for sitting on my couch and watching live college football games week in and week out. I decided to put pen to paper and share my analysis of prominent devy players for all the world to see. I intend to go deeper this year than ever before, and I hope you all enjoy the ride. Without further ado, it’s time to kick this season off with my takeaways from week 0 of the college football season.

The NFL draft community loves to push sleeper prospects on social media. Recently, I have seen some chatter regarding TCU transfer QB Jaden Craig as a potential riser this season. The first game of the college football season showed us exactly the opposite. Craig is not a mobile QB despite many touting him to be, and he was not nearly as accurate as he was during his time at Harvard. The entire TCU team may just be terrible this season, and Craig is not the guy to take them to any promised lands. Feel free to sleep on him.

On the opposing team in this game were two lower-tier players that are worth mentioning. Both Jordan Shipp and Jelani Thurman were focal points of the UNC offense, and I will be curious to see if the Thurman portion of this duo sticks. He caught 4 passes for 94 yards and was seen multiple times as an athletic and willing blocker in the run game. If Thurman can produce at this clip with any consistency while also being under the tutelage of Bill Belichick, he could be a very sneaky player for the 2027 NFL draft.

Waymond Jordan only rushed the ball 8 times this weekend for USC. Part of this was because they easily handled the opposing San Jose State Spartans, and part of it was because King Miller is a very good running back in his own right. In the little work we saw from Jordan, it was clear that he has some of the best vision at the line of scrimmage of any back that will be in the 2027 class. We need to see him stay healthy for an entire season before we anoint him as one of the next stars of NFL fantasy football, but the writing could be on the wall.

Devy Rankings Q&A – Tight Ends

Devy / By Evan Kerr / May 15, 2026

We have officially made it to the point in the year where dynasty, devy, and C2C drafts are in full swing. Jim (@jim_DFF) and I (@Evan_Kerr_) have been hard at work adjusting and tinkering with our devy rankings to make them a near-perfect product for all to utilize. Grinding film and digging into analytics has helped us to painstakingly rank over 300 players on their ability to make the jump to the next level.

The process has made us question ourselves in a number of ways, and even now that the rankings are updated, we find ourselves questioning where different players landed on the big board.

In this four-article series, we’ve decided to peel back the proverbial curtain and reveal some of what goes on within the mind of a devy ranker. Isolating one position for each article, we were each asked a series of five questions that forced us to decide which players we think are too high, which players we think are too low, a player that we just can’t seem to quit, a player we have completely given up on, and a deep sleeper we think more people need to be talking about.

For the fourth and final edition of the Devy Rankings Q&A, we focused on the tight ends.

Devy Rankings Q&A – Wide Receivers

Devy / By Evan Kerr / May 10, 2026

The process has made us question ourselves in a number of ways, and even now that the rankings are updated, we find ourselves questioning where different players landed on the big board.

Up next for the third edition of the Devy Rankings Q&A, we focused on the wide receivers.

Q: What player do you feel is ranked too highly and could have drafters regretting their choice in the future?

Evan: Andrew Marsh. I truly think he is a fine receiver, but the expectations for him are getting a little too much for my liking. He is an average athlete by most metrics, and I’m not sure he profiles as a WR1, but he is being drafted like one. Coming in at WR19 in our rankings and just outside the overall top 50, Marsh will need to do what nearly all previous Wolverines that came before him have failed to do – produce. There are early questions surrounding quarterback Bryce Underwood’s ability to get him the ball, and the offense historically is not one that puts receivers in the NFL. I am also of the opinion that he isn’t the best receiver on his own team. That title might go to incoming freshman Salesi Moa before the 2026 season comes to a close.

2026 NFL Draft Coverage: Carnell Tate

All Access, Dynasty, Rookie / By Evan Kerr / April 24, 2026

Carnell Tate was a 3-year player for The Ohio State Buckeyes and was a starter in both 2024 and 2025. He steadily improved his production with each passing season. His freshman season saw him catch 18 passes for 264 yards and 1 touchdown. His most productive season came as a senior, where he caught 51 balls for 875 yards and 9 touchdowns. He played alongside multiple highly-touted receivers throughout his time at Ohio State, including Marvin Harrison Jr., Emeka Egbuka and Jeremiah Smith, which meant that he was never the primary target for the Buckeyes. Even still, it should be noted that he managed to produce great numbers despite being the team’s secondary target which could indicate that he can take on a larger role at the next level.

FILM

Carnell Tate might be the most fluid mover at the wide receiver position in this draft class. He is not an elite athlete, nor is he going to blow you away with speed, but he is an extremely polished route runner and technically sound receiver who wins with body control, precision and an adept understanding of the opposing defensive coverages. He has a knack for winning 50/50 scenarios and will allow his quarterback to trust him even if he isn’t creating obvious separation. His game at the next level will largely be predicated on scheme. If he is deployed on the outside to win deep or is asked to win consistently against press coverage he will struggle. His strengths are in finding the soft spots in zone coverages and in the short and intermediate sections of the field.

2026 NFL Draft Coverage: KC Concepcion

All Access, Dynasty, Rookie / By Evan Kerr / April 24, 2026

KC Concepcion began his career playing for the North Carolina State Wolfpack, where he quickly showed off his talent with 71 catches for 839 yards and 10 touchdowns while also running the ball 41 times for 320 yards. It was one of the more impressive freshman seasons that we have seen in recent memory, though much of his production was manufactured closer to the line of scrimmage. He saw considerable regression in 2024 during his sophomore season, catching only 53 balls for 460 yards and 6 touchdowns in nearly an equivalent amount of games. There are some questions as to whether the offense and quarterback were simply too poor to get him the ball that season, or if he was experiencing a sophomore slump after teams had some film on him.

Concepcion bet on himself, however, and transferred to Texas A&M for his third and final season of college football. He put together arguably his best season with the Aggies and showed improvements in his skill set that were encouraging, leading up to his jump to the NFL. He caught 61 balls for 919 yards and 9 touchdowns, which led the SEC. His 15.1 Y/R was also the best of his college career.

FILM

The first thing that jumps off the screen when you turn on the tape for KC Concepcion is his natural explosive ability and knack for creating separation in the short and intermediate parts of the field. He is a friendly target for his quarterback due to the ease with which he gains separation at the break point of his routes. Between his time with NC State and Texas A&M, he showed versatility in lining up both outside and in the slot, along with out of the backfield. He is a player who you just put the ball in his hands and watch him go to work, and a creative offensive playcaller will have a field day.

2026 NFL Draft Coverage: Jordyn Tyson

All Access, Dynasty, Rookie / By Evan Kerr / April 20, 2026

Jordyn Tyson was a four-year college player who began with the Colorado Buffaloes in 2022 and transferred to finish his career with the Arizona State Sun Devils from 2023 to 2025. As a freshman, Tyson showed some flashes in the nine games that he played, catching 22 passes for 470 yards and 4 touchdowns prior to tearing his ACL, MCL, and PCL. After an injury-plagued 2023 season where he never saw the field, Tyson truly broke out in a Sun Devils uniform in 2024, catching 75 passes for 1,101 yards and 10 touchdowns. His 2025 season saw him take a significant step back in raw numbers, however. He caught only 61 balls for 711 yards and 8 touchdowns, but it is well known that he was limited by a hamstring injury for a couple of games.
FILM

If you ignore the injury history and only pay attention to his on-field work, Jordyn Tyson was one of the most dominant wide receivers in all of college football. He possesses a versatile skill set that allows him to thrive at all levels of the field. He has produced on the outside, in the slot, and in motion, which makes him a movable chess piece for any offensive coordinator.
