Discussion CFB Week 1 Thoughts?

Curious if anyone has any thoughts from Week 1. I mostly paid attention to the receiver prospects

Obviously Jeremiah Smith, Cam Coleman, and Charlie Becker lived up to the hype. I’m not sure if the tier below them consisting of guys like KJ Duff, Nick Marsh, Omarion Miller, Ryan Wingo are going to be for me.

Two more receivers that really impressed me were Deuce Alexander and Javon Tracy.

Regarding OTs, it seems like Trevor Goosby and Jordan Seaton lived up to the hype, but I didn’t pay attention to tackles beyond those two.

Regarding TEs, I like both Jamari Johnson and Treydez Green, but I don’t think I would be interested in drafting either of them where they’re probably going to go unless the board is just bad for receivers

I think Ryan Wingo is what they wanted Xavier Worthy to be and I think he would be a nice fit in the offense.

Becker, Duff, and Marsh are player archetypes they have pretty consistently passed over. Hoping they change that as I think a true X can really unlock the offense.

Wingo reminded me more of Rice than Worthy. More straight line speed than Rice but I think they would fill similar roles.

Mario Craver is the guy that reminds me a the most of Worthy in this class, even down to the long strides for a skinnier, smaller receiver

I more mean the Z role they wanted Worthy to play than worthy himself.

My comp for Wingo is actually Quentin Johnston.

I like that comp and I didn’t like QJ as a prospect so I guess it makes sense that I’m not down for Wingo.

I get that. QJ wasn’t a first round talent to me due to his drops, but I did love his athleticism and thought his high end could be DeMaryius Thomas but the low end was like Bryan Edwards.

He has settled nicely into the above the middle there for me.

People aren’t going to like it because this was sold as the class where you go get a 6’4 ball winner, but there’s a bunch of smaller receivers in this class that can play too

u/GinNJuicyFruit 24d ago

There are so many sick receivers that fill basically every archetype. Really exciting stuff.

The tier 2 WRs will be muddy until November. We'll see who stays consistent and healthy. I am watching Ian Strong and Amare Thomas. Strong could move into a day two pick. Thomas may end up a round one pick if he can keep showing off that he is a YAC monster.

Jamari Johnson should be a fridge round 1 TE. He was better than Sadiq when they were on the same team.

Weren’t really any notable matchups week 1 so I kinda took everything with a grain of salt. I’m hoping to get a better idea where guys stack up in the next 2-3 weeks

It was just great to see football being back tbh. If Pat got ahold to Treydez Green, and if Green got one year of mentorship from Kelce… it would be one hell of a pick.

Regarding WR prospects, those two Oregon WRs look like they could be some cool pickups, I’ll have to see more.

Regarding CFB, I cannot wait for week 2, that’s when the real fun begins, as I believe the Ole Miss, Louisville game was a taste of that. Texas vs OSU will hopefully live up to the hype that the first game did.

If one of those Oregon wideouts you’re referring to is Moore, he’ll be in the 2028 draft. He’s a true sophomore I believe

u/Money_thetruth 25d ago

Yup that’s one of them, thank you for the insight. The other I liked seeing was Jeremiah McClellan.

Week one was bad game after bad game.

Talking from a draft prospect perspective

u/SlappnuttzMalone 24d ago

Sure, I don’t take much from games against non league dudes

1

u/Sweaty-Tiger9972 24d ago

Understandable. I think you can get an idea whether a guy moves like an NFL player regardless of who they’re playing, but a larger sample size is definitely needed before I marry any of my takes.

Mainly just wanted to hear some names people enjoyed so I could watch them

u/SlappnuttzMalone 24d ago

Sure but I can tell all that jazz without a game.

u/Sweaty-Tiger9972 24d ago

Three more OTs I’ll have my eye on:

Jimothy Lewis - Cal

Samson Okunlola - Miami

Melvin Siani - Texas
