Chubb & Fournette are going to be great to watch the next two years. Definitely saving auction funds for one of these two guys. It would be good to see them develop as receivers. Chubb had a few receptions as a freshman, but both have a slow start to 2015 in that department. Maybe as the games get tougher the coaches will use them more in the passing attack.

yeah, definitely already planning and gaming on how to acquire as many first round picks in my rookie draft in two dynasty leagues for 2017 with hopes one is there that year. top 3 picks could be franchise builders for sure.

Treadwell will be in the 2016 class unless he shocks the world and returns for his senior season.

Keep an eye on Juju Smith Schuster though. Done for this year due to hand surgery. Best wr prospect in that class IMO.

Agree. He and Malachi Dupre the only megarecruits from 2014 doing much at receiver. Allen Lazard intriguing though you don't get Mich exposure.

Apparently USC is optimistic he will be back soon. If not this week, then for sure the next. Must have been a minor procedure. Wasn't Dupree supposed to be the best wr in the state of Loiusiana a couple years ago? Their qb isn't very good down there, but I did see a few passes downfield last week so that's encouraging.

Lazard should be a cheap acquisition for most people. As you said, he won't get much exposure playing for Iowa State. Also, ISU hasn't had decent QB play in years which will limit his stats and appeal to drafters. Something to pay a little attention to: ISU just changed their OC and made a switch at QB. They now have a somewhat promising offense with freshman at QB and RB, and the sophomore Lazard at WR.

thoughts on Fournette struggles last few weeks. is the bloom off the rose a bit? I am hoping some make mistake that it is. Of course, next year will likely wipe away any previous misgivings.

In the same vein, Henry's upsurge changing anyone's mind on his viability in the NFL level?

No, my opinion of Fournette has not changed. He and Chubb (if healthy) remain the top 2 RBs on my list for 2017. If anything Fournette has moved up my list since the Alabama game. He is still running like a Mack truck, but has added 11 receptions for 150 yards in the last 3 games.

James Conner has been diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma.

This is the same cancer that Eric Berry came back from this season. Hopefully he can beat it and make it into the league.
