Devy Analysis
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 […]
If you play fantasy football, then you and every other owner like you are looking for any and every advantage you can get on your opponents. The days of studying month old magazines or just even winging it are in the past. Owners now days are searching and studying year round and even looking at […]
What if I told you that the next Rob Gronkowski was going to be playing college football this upcoming season? That would be pretty amazing, right? Well…the odds say that statement isn’t very likely to be true and my takes aren’t that hot. It would be outstanding for there to be another iteration of the […]
The intrigue for the big-bodied, physical wide receiver that can make high point catches is something that the devy community has been attracted to for years. Evaluators tend to look for the receivers that are tall with a solid frame and the physical strength to box out defenders in contested catch situations. The hope to […]
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 […]
Montez Sweat, DE, Mississippi St. Profile Listed at 6’6”/241 lbs Montez Sweat plays Defensive End (or classified as the dreaded Edge Rusher tag, by fantasy owners), for the Mississippi State Bulldogs in the SEC. He transferred from Michigan State, where he only appeared in two games in two seasons. In 2014 he was suspended after […]
With the start of the 2018 college football season just around the corner, it’s time to examine each Big 12 team from a fantasy perspective. Baylor Best Bet: WR Denzel Mims Mims posted 1,087 yards receiving and eight scores in 2017 and was the lone fantasy bright spot for Baylor. He should see a ton […]
Shakif La’paris Nyrobi Seymour is a running back from Cleveland, Ohio. Hilariously, Holy Name is where he played his high school ball. Most of his friends call him “Fish” so I’m going with that if I ever get the chance to meet him. As a senior in high school, Seymour was nagged by injury, but […]
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 […]
In this series, I am going to look at the ‘non-obvious’ players coming into college this year. So I won’t be going through the five-star recruits such as Justin Fields and Trevor Lawrence as you will already be very aware of them. This will generally be a look at three-star recruits or lower who I […]
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 […]
In this article, I am going to be looking at Coleton Beck, RB out of Blacksburg, Virginia. He has just been signed as a three-star recruit by Virginia Tech and could have a big future in college football. Now, Virginia Tech isn’t exactly a storied franchise of recent years when it comes to their running […]
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 […]
It’s that time of year again, where everybody resets after the Draft is over and begins work for the next year. I’ve spent some time watching the wide receivers for next year’s draft and this upcoming class has a bevy of talent available and could make an impact as large as the 2014 class did […]
“CeeDee Lamb is a very, very talented natural athlete. He’s a guy that just kind of has that ‘it’ factor on the outside as a receiver… You talk about ball skills being able to go up in the air and get the ball and attack it. He’s a guy that he’s going to be able […]

The Sooners two-sport star athlete made national headlines when he was selected 9th overall by the Oakland A’s in the 2018 MLB Draft this week. Kyler Murray was presumed to be the Sooners’ starting quarterback for the upcoming 2018-2019 season, so this caused some stirring among national media and a restless few hours for Sooners […]
“Only 5 when he left Liberia, Car only remembers what his mother, Oretha, told him. How he ran away from his father, who had custody and lived on the streets for a month before being reunited with his mother. How he, his mother and younger sister, Blessing, lived in tents in an immigration camp as the […]
Last summer I took a look at the 2017 crop of incoming college receivers and attempted to project which of them had the best opportunities to “breakout” as true freshmen. I based my projections primarily on vacated production, offensive situation, and talent. You can view last year’s article here. Of the five freshman breakouts I […]
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 […]
How beneficial is it to save auction $ for Devy players rather than using it during the rookie draft? (@dynastyfballer) Since your rookie draft is already depleted by the number of Devy players rostered, I would spend the majority of my auction money on Devy players. Sure, it’s riskier, but that’s part of the fun. […]
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 […]
PROFILE TRAVIS ETIENNE, RB 5’10” 200lbs Sophomore College: Clemson Hometown: Jennings, Louisiana High School: Jennings High School BACKGROUND: It’s hard not to notice the big smile coming from Travis Etienne. Yes, the braces may stand out, but the smile provides a glimpse of who Etienne is off the field, a positive and happy guy. […]
It’s that time of year again, where everybody resets after the Draft is over and begins work for the next year. I’ve spent some time watching the running backs for next year’s draft and while I do not think there are any guys who come into the Saquon Barkley-Derrius Guice level of elite (just yet […]
In 2016, Shea Patterson enrolled at Ole Miss as one of two 5-star QBs in his recruiting class. He sat and watched as Chad Kelly ran the offense. The plan was for Patterson to take a redshirt season, but everything changed when Kelly went down with a torn ACL and lateral meniscus in the ninth […]
