Devy Watch Update: Buffalo QB Tyree Jackson Looks to Transfer

Tyree Jackson is a polarizing quarterback prospect. Listed at 6’7” and 245 pounds, he has a skill set that is reminiscent of Buffalo Bills QB, Josh Allen. Graced with incredible arm strength and very good athleticism, Jackson lacks very little in terms of natural ability. He is an excellent deep ball thrower, but his accuracy

CFF Dynasty Summer Series: Running Backs

I’ve put together a list of possible dynasty running back additions that will help teams that are building for the 2019 season and beyond. This list isn’t meant to be exhaustive or in order of preference, instead, highlight a mix of players with various price tags and range of outcomes. This is part two of

Devy Watch: WR Anthony Ratliff-Williams, UNC

Anthony Ratliff-Williams was an electrifying dual-threat quarterback in high school. As a college fantasy football player, it’s pretty disappointing that we never got to see him play QB in Chapel Hill. We’ve gotten glimpses of him on trick plays but not nearly as much as I would like. That being said, AR17’s future at the

Devy Watch: WR Cody Thompson, Toledo

Cody Thompson is the most recent confoundingly under-recruited player in my summer profile series. He was a do-it-all two-star-recruit from Huron, Ohio. His high school highlights are quite enjoyable. He played wide receiver as a sophomore, catching 48 passes for 865 yards, and scored 11 times. He then switched positions as a junior and was

Devy Watch: RB Jonathan Ward, Central Michigan

Some players sneak up on me. That’s part of what makes college football so fun. I have no idea who they are and then “BOOM” they emerge and make their presence felt. Jonathan Ward is one such example. It was early November in 2017, and I remember watching Central Michigan playing Western Michigan in the

Devy Watch: WR Hakeem Butler, Iowa State

If the saying, “Adversity builds character” is true, then it should come as no surprise that Hakeem Butler is truly an exceptional young man. For fans of the HBO’s show, The Wire, you will have some context for what life may be like for a young African-American in Baltimore. Butler’s father left when he was

Devy Watch: RB A.J. Dillon, Boston College

This is the appropriate place to start with AJ Dillon. He’s a grown man. Not sure about you, but we still can’t get over this stiff-arm by @BCFootball running back AJ Dillon. 💪 pic.twitter.com/9ENsDAjYpP — ACC Digital Network (@theACCDN) October 15, 2017 What makes this even more impressive, Dillon was just a true freshman in

Devy Watch: WR Antonio Gandy-Golden, Liberty

I have the privilege of studying a lot of prospects with very diverse and unique backgrounds. Very few of them are as interesting to me as Antonio Gandy-Golden is. The junior wide receiver took a very unique route to Liberty University. Originally from Chicago, AGG started learning gymnastics as a four-year-old. By age seven, he

CFF: Preseason Rankings

Spring ball has wrapped up and we now have more clarity surrounding many teams’ depth charts. As such, we’ve put together these rankings that are for .5 PPR and 4 points for passing TDs. We took very different approaches to predict certain depth charts. While Kyle has intentionally omitted several potential high-value players (Ex: No

SEC Spring ‘18: LSU

Quarterback Few positions have been as disappointing as the LSU QBs over the past decade. History tells me to skip this section altogether and get right to the RBs and the defense. Instead of using a bunch of my own words, I’m going to borrow from Billy Gomila from And The Valley Shook: “In the

ACC Spring ’18: Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets

TaQuon Marshall had one of the most impressive season-opening performances in 2017. He ran for 44-249-5 against Tennessee. He had five other games where he had 20+ carries and finished as the overall CFF QB21. The main area where Marshall will need to improve his game is as a passer. Being an effective runner is
