Draft Stock Watch: Week 2

Devy Breakout Player of the Week: Week 1

Devy / By /

Seven of the 20 games played this weekend resulted in a Vegas underdog victory. On Thursday night, the Miami Hurricanes and transfer quarterback D’Eriq King handled the UAB Blazers. Arkansas State’s two-quarterback system upset Kansas State due to a breakout performance from Jonathan Adams Jr. The upset of the week though was Ragin Cajuns of Louisiana-Lafayette taking down Brock Purdy and the 23rd ranked Iowa State Cyclones. Purdy, who was seen by many as a potential late first-round pick in the upcoming NFL Draft threw for only 145 yards and an interception. It is worth noting that Purdy didn’t have his star tight-end Charlie Kolar, but the Cyclones had no answer for the special teams play of the Ragin Cajuns.

Each week I will bring you the latest updates and NFL buzz surrounding college players that should prove to be integral to future fantasy success. I will utilize recent statistics, performance and film, and general “front office whispers” to compile the intel I share with you. My hope is to provide you with a leg up on your opponents. You will know which devy players to target in trades and/or in what range of draft picks (both NFL and fantasy drafts) you can expect these players to be selected. If you want to read last week’s article, click here.

Another week of college football is in the books, and Week 2 did not leave us disappointed. We have heard the BIG10 officials are meeting to discuss beginning a season as early as October. We hope to hear more on that front in the coming days. Additionally, in the 20 FBS games that were played, we witnessed some of the biggest and best upsets that we may see this entire season. Let’s sift through the aftermath of college football’s Week 2!

Devy Breakout Player of the Week: Week 0

Devy / By /

During Week 0 we had several teams from Conference USA, the AAC, Ohio Valley, Southland, and the Sun Belt Conferences kick off their season. While this sample of schools does not typically offer many NFL prospects there are still takeaways from an exciting week. Many of these games were blowouts, so the players who participated need to be mentioned with a caveat that these performances do not necessarily reflect what these players will be capable of if they make it to the next level, some did show glimpses that they have what it takes.

As this college football season shapes up to be the most unpredictable in memory, it will be as important as ever for devy owners to keep tabs on what is happening. The COVID-19 pandemic has already caused major headaches for the college football landscape, as two Power 5 conferences have already postponed their seasons (BIG10 and PAC12).  Sprinkled in are many high profile opt-outs who have chosen to forego their 2020 season and prepare for the NFL draft.

2020 Freaks Part Five

2020 College Football Freaks: Devy Impact Part Five

Devy / By /

Every year, The Athletic’s Bruce Feldman publishes his College Football Freaks List. This list garners data from college programs and highlights the players that are wowing the staff both on and off the gridiron. In year’s past, we saw names like Saquon Barkley, Jonathan Taylor, Noah Fant, and Todd Gurley, among a long list of defensive studs and offensive line standouts namely Myles Garrett and Jadeveon Clowney. We can garner a lot of information from the list that Bruce puts out, especially in deeper devy and Campus to Canton leagues. Let’s dive into the 2020 College Football Freaks List.

In this series, we will identify a high-value devy player who will likely maintain their high value or rise further. A middling valued player who you can steal and reap the big returns once they test at the NFL Combine, or their pro-day. As well as a sleeper who with a good season of production could return a serious increase in value.

2020 has been a year unlike any other. The COVID-19 virus has changed the way the world operates.

DFF Devy League Manual

The DFF Devy Manual: Part 1

Devy / By /

Devy leagues by nature are dynasty leagues. A dynasty league is defined as rosters being constant year over year, with an annual draft for incoming rookies. While a devy league will have annual drafts, once you have a devy player, they are automatically transferred to your roster. This excludes them from the annual draft.

The Memphis Tigers have produced some very dynamic players over the last three years.

Big 12 Spotlight: Pooka Williams

Big 12 Spotlight: Pooka Williams Jr.

Devy / By /

Pooka’s ability to create yards after the catch will be why he continues to rise up the rankings. Don’t sleep on this kid to be an early to mid-round pick in the NFL Draft when he decides to declare. Williams could prove to be worth rostering in devy and dynasty leagues because of the electric plays he can create. With a loaded 2021 running back class, Williams should be considered a sleeper if he declares. If he chooses to stay one more year, Pooka Williams could have a bigger spotlight in the 2022 NFL Draft and is someone to keep an eye on as his career continues.

D’Eriq King accounted for a combined 50 TDs in 2018. In his last full season in Houston, he also threw only six INTs: only 1.7% of his total attempts. King shut his season down after Houston started 1-3 which made him eligible immediately in the 2020 transfer portal. Standing at 5’11” and 195 lbs. King has a build that will make NFL teams hesitant to draft him as a franchise quarterback. However, a strong season in Miami could sway his value significantly at the next level. King also has the athleticism to play in an offensive threat position this year at Miami and progress as a slot receiver or running back at the NFL level like Randall Cobb or Antwaan Randle El.
