Justin Fields was a five-star recruit out of Harrison High School in Kennesaw, Georgia. He was one of the best high school prospects in ages and tied for eighth on 247Sports all-time rating ranks since 2000, and initially declared for the University of Georgia.
From Deshaun Watson to Trevor Lawrence, Clemson has had great success at quarterback in recent years. They’ve appeared in three college football championships and won two championships between the two quarterbacks since 2014. The Tigers may have found their successor to bring even more championship wins to Clemson. The Tigers have landed top quarterback prospect in the 2020 class, DJ Uiagalelei from Saint John Bosco High School. Uiagalelei is a five-star recruit, according to 247Sports. They have him compared to Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger and already projected him as a first-round pick.
His strengths are easy to see, as he shows excellent quickness, acceleration, and speed. When rushing the passer he shows good bend and flexibility. He does a decent job of setting the edge and turning plays back inside. He has good instincts and reads the plays very well. His play recognition allows him to get in position to make the play and helps overcome some of his deficiencies.
Five-star wide receiver and the number one wide receiver recruit in the 2020 class according to 247Sports Julian Fleming has verbally committed to play at Ohio State University. Fleming, who is also ranked number six overall in the 2020 class by 247Sports, had offers from Alabama, Clemson, Georgia, Penn State, and many more, decided today on Ohio State. The Pennsylvania native has elected not to stay in the state but instead to play for the Buckeyes.
Fleming has had a very productive high school career thus far.
The Devy Factory has started looking at the best players in each conference by diving into their strengths and weaknesses, looking at where they should be drafted in devy leagues, if at all, and where they should be drafted in the NFL.

Tua Tagovailoa is an extremely polarizing prospect in the 2020 draft class. As a true Freshman, he entered the National Championship game after halftime, down by 13 points. The poise he showed in that miraculous comeback is precisely what had some fanbases clamoring for in their “Tank for Tua” campaigns. He replaced a seasoned veteran who had previously been a true freshman phenom in Jalen Hurts, and Alabama has never looked back.
Many already regard Tua as the consensus QB1 and possibly number 1 overall pick in next years draft class. Throughout the last few weeks, I have watched hours of game film picking apart every facet of his game
Memphis Tigers #55 Linebacker One of the top rising pass rushers in college football, Memphis Tigers linebacker Bryce Huff, is coming off a forty-nine tackle, nineteen tackle for a loss and nine and a half sack performance, in his first full season as a starter. Now entering his senior season, he is primed to be […]
Every year there are a handful of players that get overlooked during their college careers and then the pre-draft process as well. That can be due to a variety of factors. I will be focusing mainly on running backs for this project. From going to a small school (David Johnson), not getting the workload they […]

As it pertains to college production, some believe it is the end all be all statistic to evaluate a player going into the NFL. To me, it is a piece of the puzzle (just like the combine), but one has to digest the reasons for production. What makes a players production in college special? We […]
As we prepare for another college season full of hype during spring games and scrimmages, it is important to note a few of those names that stick out. Below are two players that have excelled in high school and were no lower than four-star recruits via 247 Sports coming out. There are many players that […]
The calendar has turned to April. The days are longer. The weather is better. College football teams are back on the field and spring games are here. This weekend brings the first big slate of games. Some teams are looking forward to getting players back on the field after an injury-shortened 2018 season, others are […]
It’s that time of the year again folks! The NFL draft is just around the corner. Draftniks are breaking down film and furiously debating players. Dynasty players are awaiting upcoming rookie drafts and locking in their rankings. For the past few years, I have shown my process of using combine stats to help discover which […]
Over the last few years, devy leagues have increased in popularity. I’ve found that over half of the leagues I’m in are devy leagues. They add a wrinkle to typical dynasty leagues, give you that much more ammo to trade and even more players to study up on during the offseason. One thing I have […]
Let the hype train begin–it’s wide receiver time! This was the best group of offensive players at the combine, so let’s break them down and see what we can find. I’ve separated them into two categories. The first group could have an immediate impact next season. The second group will need work but have a […]
With the NFL Combine being wrapped up and my numbers finally starting to wrap up, I wanted to write an article to talk about this ridiculous WR class. I have 29 wide receivers with a 5th round grade or higher, and on average, around 32 wide receivers get selected each draft. The talent in this […]
