@@ban1sh3d63 appreciate that man. 🫡 comments like this keep us going and make it worth it. We just try to create shit we like and hope it helps everyone along the way

[@ban1sh3d63]

@ it’s one of my fav channels. It helps me a ton because I don’t have the same interest in college as the pros but I need prep for my devy leagues and it’s a cheat sheet to get ahead of value before combine. Thanks again.

[@ZeNoGravity]

The 2027 class is gonna be 2024 class all over again. Generational QB in lagway, WR insane. I’ve already traded for 2 2027 firsts in 1 league. I want as many shots on Smith, Williams, and lagway as I can get.

Just got a sub. Finally someone else is high on Henderson. He’s also my RB2. Could be the best pass blocking rb.

He’s a true three down back. Excited to see the predraft process and just where he lands. But the kid is talented

[@mrdoku1515]

Awesome content by the way, been subscribed for a year now and your channel has been helping me with devy assets. No in 3 devy leagues, having been in one before in which I drafted awful player slike Isaiah Spiller and Sean Tucker in the first round! Now I have players like Tet McMillan, Luther Burden and Ashton Jenty (all in different leagues) coming in. In my leagues, all SF, qbs go like hot cakes. Tried waiting to get some qb prospects, but most go by the 2nd round.

[@TheDevyRoyale]

@@mrdoku1515 dude love to hear that! That’s why we are here.

[@pittsracing13]

Just found this channel. I have 3 dynasty's on 3 very different time frames. One I was runner up this year and might run it back one more year. The other just needs RB's for 2025 and the 3rd is a total rebuild after I flubbed the start up draft horribly. I've ben stock pilling the 2027 draft picks in the rebuild and have great picks in this years draft for the 2025 team. Definitely will keep watching the channel to help me get an edge.

[@TheDevyRoyale]

@@pittsracing13 appreciate you watching

[@lquinn7902]

Finally something on the 2027 class! I feel like there is nothing else out there right now from anyone(which is kinda good since most managers don't yet realize 2027>2026)

[@hegerton85]

Great stuff as always 👏 👏

[@charliec5449]

I agree with you regarding Henderson. I believe people in fantasy suffered from prospect fatigue with him because of the splash he made in DEVY circles several years ago. He has great vision, burst, and long speed. I also agree he is a bell cow RB.

[@JmetalKTLR]

Whoa! A Raheim Sanders mention. I got him and Ollie Gordon as well as T McMillan

[@TheDevyRoyale]

Have to give him credit this season. He bounced back in a big way.

[@kilogram2288]

Love the content. Regarding Jay’s comment around the 12 minute mark…I believe I saw that Dane Brugler said he wouldn’t be surprised to see double digit RBs drafted by end of day 2. That would be huge!

[@kilogram2288]

So on Kevin’s take, I personally would take the over on 7 RBs drafted by end of day 2 this year 🤞🏼

[@TheDevyRoyale]

@@kilogram2288 man if we see double digit RBs drafted by the end of day 2 I don’t know if Jay’s spreadsheets can handle that type of 🔥 😂 I tend to agree though and probably was conservative with 7. Let’s hope it’s more!

[@Seth_Michael_Hernandez]

With Gibbs JT and Cook at RB, but Kupp, Adams, Reed and Dell at WR, I think I’ve got to just patch WR and hold on while I stack 2027 draft capital for WR youth. draft RB this year (cause I’m picking at the back) with later stabs at WR like with my guy Jayden Higgins. I feel like that’s what I’m picking up here. Great vid! Subscribed.

[@TheDevyRoyale]

@@Seth_Michael_Hernandez appreciate the sub!

[@mykonmorales7706]

That 2027 wr class 👀 I got 3 1st rounders and 2 2nd rounders for that year

[@JonathanRoselli]

In a weak 26 RB class, I think Bryson Washington from Baylor is going to be drafted. Very productive this year, with some very good receiving flashes as well!

[@TheDevyRoyale]

@@JonathanRoselli you love some Bryson Washington!

[@charliec5449]

Milroe is fools gold. Is he any better of a prospect than Hendon Hooker?

[@TheDevyRoyale]

Opinions will vary, but yes his athleticism is significantly better than Hooker’s and neither were very good throwing the ball, so we’d say yes. In that tier of players, though!

[@mrdoku1515]

In devy drafts. Do you target one class with all your picks, or spread them out amongst the 3 available draft classes?

[@TheDevyRoyale]

@@mrdoku1515 for me it’s all about positional value over draft classes or eligibility. I focus on WR early no matter what. Unless there is a generational RB like say Bijan or a player like Jeanty. Because WRs are always valued more in the Devy format. My whole goal is to acquire as many valuable assets as I can regardless of the class. However one thing I will do if I am in later rounds is go after some 2025 or the next closest class of players who I think could get at least day 2 capital.

[@mrdoku1515]

Appreciate this advise. Traditionally, I have gone for players 3 years out in the later rounds as a punt as most good players in the upcoming 2025 have been taken for them last 2 years.a

[@TheDevyRoyale]

@@mrdoku1515 As long as you value guys that I deem "Value Risers) it's a viable strategy. value risers are all league-dependent, though. Knowing your league mates and knowing what devy assets they value is the most important. If they chase youth, then your strategy is optimal. If they look for immediate production it could help to goo after 2025 guys

[@charliec5449]

Ollie Gordon: Here's a guy I thought looked slow this year and didn't exactly see the field like I thought he would. He was incredibly productive in 2023, but 2024 was a disappointment to me. He's a guy who has to look good at the combine to possibly show 2024 was a mirage.

[@TheDevyRoyale]

@@charliec5449 yeah 100% I was always lower on him even with the big year so this year just makes me more nervous. Combine will be big for him

[@dylanparker5313]

I got 7 27 firsts in one of my 12 man leagues, who’ll still being a competitive team, traded away all of my 26 picks and most of 25 picks, still have my late first tho, but man am I excited for the 27 class

[@TheDevyRoyale]

@@danielbarrett2554 we do on our patreon. We have combined rankings along with Devy and dynasty. As for those guys I would rank them: Love Frazier Haynes Tate

[@chw523]

For the Clemson fans..have to choose, Wesco or Moore ?

[@bkingthrows]

I have 3 first and 5 seconds this year (1.01, 1.04, 1.07, 2.01, 2.05, 2.06, 2.09, 2.10). I have 3 firsts and a second next year. Stroud and nix at QB and rattler at backup lol. at 1.04 would you go top QB available assuming jeanty and tett are gone? If it's the QB2, is Burden a good enough player to wait longer and use like a second on Ewers or something?

[@TheDevyRoyale]

@@bkingthrows right now I would lean quarterback at 1.04. But I’d also use that 1.04 as a big trade chip. You might have some managers in the league that fall in love with the idea of drafting either the QBs or maybe they want one of the RBs/Burden. Then you could get a QB in a trade. Thinking of those QBs in the 8-12 range.

[@kmh2076]

Jordyn Tyson is going back to school and is at ASU. Absolute monster season. Will be a 1st or 2nd round player in 2026.

[@TheDevyRoyale]

@@kmh2076 yeah that’s probably a miss for us there he had an incredible year. Appreciate you pointing that out 👊wish he was healthy for the playoff. Would love to see him go up against Texas

[@ryanrostkowski4244]

Where does 2027 WR stack up with your evaluation of 2024 WR class?

[@TheDevyRoyale]

Jeremiah Smith is the WR1 of both classes. That would push 2027 over the top for me. I think that both are relatively close but I think when you look at the 2027 class you'll see more WR1 types with top 10 upside.

[@ck9618]

I think 2027 will be overall much better than 25 and 26 but I agree with your assessment of the QBs.

[@TheDevyRoyale]

@@ck9618 yeah QBs are just a crap shoot tbh just don’t know how these guys will develop and how their situation could change. Who know is Napier last another year at Florida which could change Lagway’s trajectory etc…

[@BASykes1701]

Jeanty and Tet as top 2 makes sense, but what about in an IDP league? If Travis Hunter is WR/DB-eligible does that change anything from a draft value perspective in your opinion? Thanks!

[@TheDevyRoyale]

@@BASykes1701 oh yeah if I’m in an IDP league depending on the scoring I would take Hunter at 1.01

[@chriscagol]

Reason why I sold outside 26 class and used those picks and others assets to pick up a total of 7 picks in the top 20 of this years class in a one qb league in which I need rb help.

[@TheDevyRoyale]

@@chriscagol well if you need RB help then the 2025 class is the group to pull from. I would say don’t be afraid to trade those picks as well after you get a few of your guys in the 2025 class. Could always try to flip back to 2027 if someone really wants an asset. Maybe even for a QB if someone falls in love with Ward or Shedeur.

[@chriscagol]

@ I have a plan curious of your take…one guy in my league has Achane but his wr is ass it’s deebo and metcalf Allen and that’s it just fillers. He also has Barkley and Conner and Montgomery so he’s kinda set at rb. I have Jaylen wright and Miami runs a San Fran offense especially if one back gets hurt and mostert is gonna be gone. This is the package (I give Tracy, Olave, 1.09) and get Achane and the 1.06. That way I can move up to get TET or burden. Also I might do Tracy, jeudy, 1.09, and the 2.05 or 2.09 for Achane and 1.06. Thoughts?

[@jetssimulations3447]

Honestly just curious because I thought of this. Isn’t there a chance teams could pass on a rb early knowing they can draft another great player at a position of need knowing they can get another good runningback a round later

[@TheDevyRoyale]

Yeah, that is the scenario that worries Jay the most regarding draft capital. If they think the position is deep they will just wait for the later rounds and I do think the depth of the D-Line/Edge class will be a target for teams in the late first early second. But the scenario I think could happen is we see RBs go fast in the thrid and early 4th

[@Pgulia5745]

How does the top 2026 RB tier stack against the incoming freshman top QB tier? Say, J Love vs Keelon Russell?

[@TheDevyRoyale]

@@Pgulia5745 great question. I lean proven production over incoming first QBs every time. I would say Bryce Underwood and Taven St. Claire are the two guys I might break that rule for though. However I still hate the idea of drafting unproven quarterbacks in this format. So many can’t miss prospects at that position simply miss

[@mattb782]

Allar is the top trade asset among 2025 QB prospects? By that wide of a margin too? Bold

[@TheDevyRoyale]

It’s tough to gauge the value of quarterbacks. As we pointed out this is a combination of all our rankings. I’m (Kevin) a little lower on Allar than the other members of the team. However from a trade value perspective I don’t think it’s that crazy. All it takes is one manager to believe in him.

[@kpinkettwrk]

I understand that this level of success was unexpected but what would've Bo Nix's grade been had you thought he would perform like this year 1?

[@charliec5449]

Egubka is another WR where the fantasy community is suffering prospect fatigue. Once they've been on the fantasy radar for a long time people find reasons to push them down.

[@TheDevyRoyale]

We love Emeka and we are holding him at a high standard

[@joshmorton6183]

Any thoughts on Matthew Golden. I watch the Texas games to see Bond and Helm and always walk away thinking Golden stold the show. Yet somehow he's never mentioned in anybody's evaluation of the class. He seems legit to me 🤷‍♂️

[@TheDevyRoyale]

@@joshmorton6183 oh man you are talking to the Matthew Golden stan here! Have loved him since he was a prospect. He is the best Texas WR on that roster imo. He’s their glue guy. When it comes to the NFL i think he will need to show that he can get consistent separation. He has 14 contested catches this season and while he has won those at an almost 60% clip that is worrisome at the next level. I think he needs one more year at Texas but could absolutely see him being a great day 2 WR.

[@mattb782]

As a bettor, I agree, Bond has killed me.

@@camdn_lee yes based on our combined rankings and trade value.

[@kilogram2288]

You guys may have a fixed process to mark a player for a certain year, but I would bet a lot of money that Arch stays for two years. I think he wants 20+ college starts before going to the league, plus next year the team will be retooling the OL and a good portion of the defense so it may be a tougher season than people expect (avid UT fan here). All the more reason to stock up on the 2027 class imo.

[@TheDevyRoyale]

Definitely wouldn’t be shocked if that happened! The year they’re associated with is just their first year of draft eligibility.

[@TheDevyRoyale]

Yeah I mentioned the 20+ starts when discussing Arch, I know thats what his family wants and I know if he doesn't get that he will most likely be back. I also think his family will choose where he plays, like with Eli. So we'll need to watch who could possibly pick him at 1.01 to determine if he will return. if he does go into 2027, then it could be one of the best draft classes we have seen in dynasty.

[@rhondacommander5233]

So the 2026 #1 WR no where to be found? South Carolina will have the # 1 QB and WR.

[@leo_0527]

How is it possible that you guys have allar that far ahead of ward and sanders he is clearly a worse prospect by a good amount than both of them?? Am I reading this wrong?

[@TheDevyRoyale]

@@leo_0527 it’s a combination of our grades in our community. For me personally (Kevin) I don’t have Allar ranked that high. However there are a lot of draft guys in particular the Stock Exchange pod who say Allar could be a top 10 pick and possibly the 1st QB taken if he came out.
