Plenty to talk about during Week 2 of the College Football season.  Which draft-eligible prospects stood out?

College football is in full swing and I take a look at how draft-eligible prospects fared during Week 1 of the College Football season.

After previewing my top 10 QBs, RBs, and WRs, we kick off Episode 4 talking TEs.  While there isn't a Brock Bowers in this year's draft class, Colston Loveland is expected to garner serious consideration in Round 1.  However, he's not the only TE to be excited about as this is a deep crop of TEs.  We also take a look at Week 0 of the college football season.  Florida State takes on Georgia Tech in...

The 2025 WR class doesn't have a sure-fire top 10 pick like Marvin Harrison Jr., Malik Nabers or Rome Odunze, but expect Luther Burden III, Tetairoa McMillan and Emeka Egbuka to hear their names called in Round 1 in April.  Who's next in line after this trio?  I got it covered here.

Episode 2 moves to my top 10 rankings at the RB position, where there isn't a true No. 1 RB at the top of the list, but a lot of depth to be excited about.  Ashton Jeanty, Ollie Gordon II, Omarion Hampton, Quinshon Judkins and TreVeyon Henderson are likely at the top of the list, but they're not the only RBs we should be talking about in this year's draft class. 

The 2024 College Football season is upon us so it's time to start introducing you to the players to watch out for who we'll be talking about in April for the 2025 NFL Draft.  We'll start the rankings with the QB's.  After a history-making draft with six QBs taken in the first 12 picks, the 2025 QB class has three QBs primed for the 1st Round right now in Carson Beck, Shedeur Sanders and Quinn Ewer...
