Devy Watch: RB Saquon Barkley, Penn State

By Bradley Ylitalo | May 17, 2017 | Comments Off on Devy Watch: RB Saquon Barkley, Penn State

2017 may have been the “Year of the Running Back” with talents such as Leonard Fournette, Dalvin Cook, Joe Mixon, and Christian McCaffrey, but the 2018 running back class isn’t looking too shabby. One of the elite talents is right at the heart of that ultra-exciting Penn State offense, and his name is Saquon Barkley. […]

His name is Josh Allen, and he might not be who you expect. Typically, when you find quarterbacks with the 6’5” frame and a lightning quick […]

Devy Breakout Series: RB Edition

By Greg Brandt | May 3, 2017 | Comments Off on Devy Breakout Series: RB Edition

      This group of running backs has a lot of inexperience. Going into 2017, there are a lot of unknowns about all of them, expect for Kalen Ballage, who has already had some success at the collegiate level. But for the four other running backs, they now have a chance to make names for themselves. […]

Cornerbacks in IDP can be very finicky. Most gravitate towards using rookies or young players as they are the ones that get picked on by opposing offenses. There is certainly nothing wrong with that strategy. Yet what follows is not a list of top CB prospects. You will find neither Gareon Conley or his Ohio […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster: Here to Prove Everybody Wrong

By Jeremy Browand | April 26, 2017 | 0 Comments

John “JuJu” Smith-Schuster (@TEAM_JUJU9).

I was skeptical about how good he is. A couple of years ago, Smith-Schuster was commonly the first […]
