            • Who are some off the radar Defensive Line targets that could really break out over the next few years?

              Darrell - DE, George Karlaftis, Purdue / DE, Tyreke Smith, Ohio State

              Eric - Tyler Davis, DT Clemson / Zach Harrison DL, Ohio State / Xavier Kelly, DL Arkansas

              • Twitter User @FatAdamSchefter
              • What is our outlook on Clemson’s incoming #1 freshman DT, Bryan Bresee?

                Darrell - Was #1 overall recruit in 2020 by 247 Sports Composite. 1st thing that stands out is his size. He’s a man among boys in these high school games. At 6’5” / 290 lbs he has the frame to play both inside or outside. Very strong and powerful. Displays some quick hands and 1st step quickness. Will be a huge jump in competition for him. The toolbox

                is somewhat limited due to not being challenged enough on the field.

                • Twitter user - @DynastyTripp
                • Is LB Micah Parsons a better dynasty asset than RB Kenny Gainwell or WR Jaylen Waddle?

                  • Twitter user - IDP Dynasty Authority@ONUtyjo
                  • I know safeties are typically lower priority but how do you factor potential roles vs talent?

                    How much do you bump up guys like Hamsah Nasirildeen or Divine Deablo that could be box safeties at the next level vs better all-around safety prospects like Andre Cisco or Jevon Holland?

                    • Twitter User - Todd Foster @FF_banterman
                    • How good is Zach Harrison going to be?

                      Which players are sleepers in college but might not be great pro prospects?
