For many fantasy football managers, the period immediately following the Super Bowl is a chance to relax, reflect, and disconnect from the rollercoaster which is a fantasy football season. For dynasty managers, there may be no busier time. In fact, some say there is no off-season. It is a mantra I have seen somewhere. I cannot quite put my finger on it.
For devy managers? Clear your schedule, because the work starts now. The devy community now has to juggle two Signing Days and a transfer portal which creates unceasing player movement. It is both fun and impossible to manage, yet we persevere. Below are the top devy talents in the land, contained within an infallible list that requires no criticism.
85. Kobe Prentice, WR Alabama (2025 Draft-Eligible)
Profile: In an odd turn of events, many ballyhooed young receivers have struggled at Alabama in recent years. For one reason or another, something has not been clicking with much of the four and five-star talent Nick Saban has brought in at the position. Early returns on Prentice, however, are extremely promising.
He is an effortless mover, getting to top speed in a heartbeat and showcasing the lateral agility to create mayhem after the catch. Prentice’s athleticism makes him a nightmare to contain, and he showed potential as both an intermediate route-runner as well as a vertical threat in his freshman season, posting a 31-337-2 line for the Crimson Tide. Prentice has a unique skill set that should aid him in remaining a key component of Alabama’s offense.
2023 Outlook: Unlike last season, the Crimson Tide have some stability in the receiver room. Jermaine Burton and Ja'Corey Brooks return with fellow rising sophomore Isaiah Bond also in the room. However, Traeshon Holden and Tyler Harrell hit the transfer portal, leaving ample opportunity for a third option to distance himself. Prentice is as good a bet as any, and his skillset complements Burton and Brooks perfectly, making him a logical selection to have a breakout 2023.
84. Nicholaus Iamaleava, QB Tennessee (2026 Draft-Eligible)
