Week 0 only has a few games so we won’t have the full setup as usual. Good luck this weekend! It’s football season!
QB – Austin Reed – College Football kicks off with Austin Peay vs. Western Kentucky! Look for the Hilltoppers QB Reed to start the season off with a boom! After earning QB1 over Jarret Doege (transferred) the rifle-armed Reed will look to get out to a great start vs. a lowly defensive unit at Austin Peay.
Sleeper QB – Jordan Travis – FSU plays host to Duquesne & Travis will look to jump-start an offense that struggled with the passing game. Travis might not play into the 3rd QTR but we’re hopeful that he does enough damage in the first half to be a great value play!
RB – Calvin Tyler Jr. – An intriguing prospect that could be a sneaky value play vs. UConn. Look for Tyler to get going early, and become more utilized in the pass game. Tyler has breakaway speed, and UConn’s defense has been a rebuilding project.
Sleeper RB – Rahmir Johnson – Spring and Fall reports have been very positive for the Nebraska RB. Yes, they’re playing a usually good run-defense in Northwestern but call it a hunch we think Johnson will do a little bit of everything, and be a solid play this week.
WR – Josh Downs – Most likely the top priced WR out of North Carolina will be worth every penny in week zero. The main focus of the offense at UNC and with injuries at the position look for Downs to get a high volume of touches to start the season vs. Florida A&M.
Sleeper – Andre Greene – With North Carolina searching for a #2 WR a sleeper comes to mind in Andre Greene. The highly-touted freshman has a huge catch radius and big play-ability. With Florida A&M a bit over-matched in this one Greene is our fun toss-up pick that should be very cheap week one.
