Combine Numbers: 4.52 40 yard dash 11’1” Broad Jump 24 reps of 225 lbs. Bench Press 36.5” Vertical Jump 7.01 3 Cone One thing I adore is a player who walked on to a team and clawed, hustled and worked countless hours while others were out getting turnt up. Mr. Haason Reddick walked on to […]
Jordan Evans LB, Oklahoma: 6’3 232 pounds Quick thoughts After watching Jordan Evans play, I was ready to suit up myself. Three words come to mind watching Evans play. Tough Athletic Instincts This kid is a baller and leader on his team’s defense. In 2015 he suffered a torn pectoral muscle and has recovered well. Run […]
College Game As a college athlete, he performed well. Looking back at his last two seasons I was impressed with his production. Smaller than I like my LBs but, can’t argue with his tackle numbers, 212. I always watch to see how well players can tackle. In fantasy football, it is, of course, a key […]
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 […]
John “JuJu” Smith-Schuster (@TEAM_JUJU9). I looked at him differently than many of the players I evaluate pre-draft and it had nothing to do with his hyphenated last name (okay, so I did wonder what that was about). I was skeptical about how good he is. A couple of years ago, Smith-Schuster was commonly the first […]
Elijah McGuire has been a popular name in Devy circles for several years now. His early career production (4,300 scrimmage yards and 43 TDs) looked extremely promising heading into his senior year and had many in the scouting community excited for what was to come. However, that buzz quickly turned into question marks, as McGuire’s […]
The 2017 NFL Draft is finally within grasp. My Big Board is finished and I’ll explain the process to a degree. I use a 1-10 grading scale. I choose certain traits that pertain to each position, turn on a game and grade those traits. Then, I grade each prospect game by game to come to an […]

Quarterback Mitchell Trubisky took all the University of North Carolina spotlight this NFL Draft season, but there is an underrated wide receiver out of UNC that deserves to be talked about. Ryan Switzer is not a household name, but if you have watched UNC games, you can’t miss him. In addition to being Trubisky’s go-to receiver, his versatility […]
I have watched twenty-seven college football spring scrimmages, or spring showcases, as they are sometimes referred to. In watching, I’ve attempted to identify potential offensive breakout stars both on the collegiate and ultimately professional level. This is not intended to be a comprehensive list nor is it a ranking of Devy prospects. In fact, I […]
The 2019 class of wide receivers already saw the breakout of Ahmmon Richards and N’Keal Harry last season. In 2017 expect to see Michael Pittman and DeKaylin Metcalf join this already talented class of receivers for 2019. This sophomore group of wide receivers has the potential to be one of the best we’ve seen in […]
A great pass rusher is paramount to any good defense, and that is exactly what Jareid Combs is. Here I interview Mr. Combs about his football career thus far, and where he is trying to go from here. It’s easy to root for him, and I think you’ll feel the same way after reading his […]

But they may have some competition coming this fall. I will outline a number of […]
Year after year Seattle Seahawks fans are reminded of the style and thresholds that John Schneider and Pete Carroll look for in corners. Since there isn’t anything on the world wide web leading up to the 2017 draft here is your yearly reminder. The Seahawks have only drafted 6 total corners since Pete and John […]
Ben Boulware LOVES football. That is the first, and foremost thing you should know about this hungry, passion-fueled linebacker from upstate South Carolina. The second thing you should know deals with his collegiate position coach, Brent Venables. The current Defensive Coordinator for the National Champion Clemson Tigers was recently named the winner of the 2016 […]
The 2017 draft class is packed with running backs. You have heard of Leonard Fournette or Dalvin Cook, but there is somebody else on my draft radar. Aaron Jones has some minor concerns that go against him, but in my eyes, the ‘pros’ far outweigh the ‘cons.’ Jones […]
The title of this article may just be the best way to sum up, Jabrill Peppers game, an electrifying athlete. If you have the chance to watch his high school highlights, he dominated using that awe-inspiring athleticism and went on to be rated #2 overall in the “ESPN top 300” rankings only behind none other […]
Rick Orio is a small school safety who was paramount to a defense that led the NCAA in 5 categories during the 2016 season. Now he’s done with his college career and is looking at a career in the CFL for the time being. He looks to have a career path similar to Jerrell Freeman, […]

Amba Etta-Tawo Senior / 6’1″ / 208 – Syracuse via Maryland Games Watched: 2016: Louisville, UConn, Notre Dame, South Florida, Virginia Tech The Skinny: Amba Etta-Tawo burst onto the scene in 2016 after not much fanfare while playing at Maryland. He is a crisp route-runner and a dynamic playmaker. The former high school sprinter amassed […]
Tim Williams – Senior / 6’3″ / 244 – Alabama Games Watch: 2016: USC, Texas A&M, LSU, Tennessee 2015: LSU, Clemson, Mississippi St., Michigan St. The Skinny: Tim Williams is an interesting size for an edger. Sometimes this seems to cause him to play too carefully. Other plays he is relentless and plays until the whistle […]
Here’s a writer’s secret for you: It can be very hard to write an objective scouting report on your draft crush. Believe me, I will do my best, though. You may be wondering why Duke Riley is my draft crush. After all, he’s a fairly under-the-radar weakside linebacker that probably won’t get drafted until Day-2. […]
Bryan Edwards, a rising true sophomore for the South Carolina Gamecocks, is poised for a huge 2017 season.

Sure he played in the single high often but really he should be considered a deep […]
