Anyway GREAT job and very momentous to finish up the draft PB!

I wasn't angling for points, he just is our mock's Mr. Irrelevant.

[CrimsonFox]

LOL! Okay I accept that!

[EagleFan]

Great draft all. I'll get everything updated tonight and start posting some numbers for the draft itself, the 2026 season and then on to the first season.

I may track the undrafted players too (only two of the undrafted QB's, the top 2). as two other teams (just trying to figure out how to split them up, may do the top test scores versus the bottom test scores).

Will be finishing up the 2027 season and start to post results later tonight. Working on getting a good system together for posting.

[CrimsonFox]

ahahahahahahahaaaa!

[CrimsonFox]

grades are overrated. I'll force a bunch of nerds to take their tests for them.

[Coffee Warlord]

Bah, CW Sporting Enterprises will just be doing it the old fashioned way. Buying the necessary grades. We'll get our money back once our players get drafted.

[collegesportsfanms]

Well, I may not have the most talented team... but I will definitely have the smartest team.. Shouldn't have to worry about any of my players being ineligible.

2027 - Year of the Red Shirt

Most players were red shirted for the 2027 season. Some did play, one made a potentially promising late season debut.


Autumn

Only three players on his team saw action in 2027. Of those, only punter Junior Stanford saw action for the entire season.

The big story for Autumn is runningback Rod Forbes. He was being red shirted for most of the season but bad injury problems forced him to lose his red-shirt status and play the last regular season game. He turned heads as he started the game and ran for 201 yards in that game. He would also start their playoff game, which they would lose and he would rush for just 85 yards in that game.

CrimsonFox

Four players saw action for his team, all for full seasons. Jake Cunningham had 418 rushing yards for the season as a backup. Kicker Teddy Jordan hit 15 field goals. The other two saw limited action in those games.

PurdueBrad

Three players saw action, two for a full season. Linebacker Erick Strickland made 58 tackles in 11 games and was 2nd team all-conference. Cornerback Ross DeLorraine had 4 interceptions. Dwight Rhinehart saw limited action.

DavidCorperial

Four players saw action, three played in double digit games. Punter Bert Vierra saw the most action and played all season. Kicker Frank Wheeler hit 15 field goals and 53 extra points.

Coffee Warlord

Four players saw action all season. Skip Cerf rushed for 681 yards and had 8 touchdowns. Kicker Toby Fiefa hits 18 field goals and 55 extra points and was named to all-academic for the conference. Mack Kinney and Shannon Peters saw backup action.

ntndeacon

Three players saw action for a full season; Blaine Marsolais, Teddy Vought and Rusty Bond. It was all as a backup.

kingfc22

Only two players saw action. Donovan Prior as a full season backup. Casey Whalen played the last 8 games and contributed. He had 54 tackles, 2 interceptions and a forced fumble.

collegesportsfanms

Five players saw action for a combined 57 games. Doug Rafalski was a backup with limited action. Jay Tillitski played mostly special teams. Alex Ryder punted all season long. Justin Kerby hit 9 field goals and made 44 extra points. Shawn Henson intercepted 7 passes and added 34 tackles as he seems to be all about coverage and not about tackling.

2027 College Rundown

Middle Tennessee State won their second consecutive title as they beat Penn State 37-10 to win the champtionship and finish the season 16-0.

Northern Illinois runningback Dean Collier won the player of the year. He ran for 2387 yards (5th best season all-time) with 34 touchdowns (tied for most in a season all-time). He also had 731 yards receiving on 66 receptions with 6 more touchdowns.

[CrimsonFox]

Okay this is an awesome dynasty. Go Jake go! I'm finally feeling better about my 1st pick.

[CrimsonFox]

I hereby christen my team: TEAM DUH!!!!!

[Autumn]

Really nice start for some of you guys. Should give you a real edge.

[CrimsonFox]

ohhh I was confused about Drafft points. I thought we'd see draft points now for when they were drafted into college. But it's actually about getting drafted by the pros right?

[Coffee Warlord]

Ding ding ding!

[Coffee Warlord]

I'm becoming quite happy I snagged my kicker when I did. He's already paying dividends.

[CrimsonFox]

you are sooo lucky you did when you did as I was going to pick him on my next pick when you did.

[Autumn]

Yeah, I was about to grab that kicker too. You jumped on him just in time.

[CrimsonFox]

Well I DID get #2 who has the Distance leg, so we'll see if he pays off as much. He has 15 fg already altho EF didn't mention extra points. But at least he's playing a full season yay!

BTW, so are these guys all freshmen?

[Coffee Warlord]

But mine is SMART!

Yep, freshman year for all. Looks like we'll have a couple seasons of NFL drafts to see with the number of redshirts that we have.

I'm curious to see what Forbes does for you. He jumped out of the gate with that 201 yard game. Hurts his college totals for you as he gets just a 2 game year towards his eligibility.

Also curious to see how the breakdown ends up between players that red-shirted and those that didn't and if it affects their chances of making the pros.

[Autumn]

Yeah that's great for a freshman, but too bad to only get a couple games in.

[kingfc22]

Cool to see Whalen make an impact as a Freshman. Thought he was a good value in the 8th round.

On the other hand, a wasted season on the bench instead of a red shirt for our TE blows.

[PurdueBrad]

Defensively we're obviously strong but I'm waiting to see if/when the running backs make an impact.

[Coffee Warlord]

I'm curious to see how the QB's fare, and how many manage a starting role.

[EagleFan]

Moving to 2028. Will update if there are any early season academic suspensions.

[EagleFan]

...and so it begins...

[CrimsonFox]

Really quite happy! Ecstatic about QUinn Sherman especially with how far down on the QB list I picked him from. Good instinct. Great FB and WR news. I am VERY disappointed at my running back situation. I thought that's where the money would be. Waylon, Mcduffie and Heemskirk doin great on defense. But I think I'm gonna get skunked on tackles and sacks .
I really thought my Center would play more since I figured centers were more rare.

[CrimsonFox]

BTW what exactly do you mean by "red shirt"?

[CrimsonFox]

wow autumn. It seems that more of your guys rode the bench, but the ones that played did outstanding!

[Autumn]

Woo-hoo. Some good action. And some redshirts who hopefully will pay off down the road. 7 guys though who basically rode the bench. That's not good.

[Autumn]

Well I guess yo'ure about the same, CF, 7 guys who basically didn't get playing time. But you've got four all-conference guys already.

[EagleFan]

Red shirt is basically assigning the player so they will not be used for the season. This allows them a year to improve and doesn't count against their eligibility.

[CrimsonFox]

Looking at the points again I now wish that ALl-conference people were worth more than 1 little point It's hard to get that isn't it?

hmmm so good thing? bad thing? FOr our purposes it doesn't really sound like a good thing.

Can be a good thing as it could be the difference between the player's first season being one as a decent starter and wasting a season floundering as a backup if the kid isn't quite ready.

[EagleFan]

Will write up more teams tomorrow night. It will probably end up being about a week per season for the college years. Depending on how many players make it to the pros it may speed up at that point.
