Brayden Burries has been averaging 17.8 points on .579/.684/.824 shooting splits, 6.3 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 0.8 steals, and 0.5 blocks a night across just 30.3 minutes per.

It was very obvious that Bryce is a mega-talent. He's got so much ability, but he's raw -- as you would expect an 18-year-old starting quarterback at a Power 4 school to be. He was not a completely finished product, and that's our job now to turn him into that.

Waiting around, it gets a little stressful. But I finally got the answer that I was waiting for. And that's to pursue the NFL now, and I can put all my focus into that.

In the final weeks of February, in perhaps the only quiet month on the college football calendar, the 2027 high school recruiting cycle is gaining steam. With the 2026 class and transfer portal window closed, programs across the country are now casting their attention firmly on the Class of 2027 this spring as elite prospects lock in visits, cut down lists of finalists and settle on commitment dates.

A 2022 fifth-round pick by the Commanders, Howell made his first career NFL start against the Cowboys during the regular season finale of his rookie campaign. That next season, the North Carolina ended up being a full-time starter for Washington. He went 4-13 in his 17 starts, completing 63.4 percent of his passes for 3,946 yards, 21 touchdowns, and a league-leading 21 interceptions.

Another NFL season, another massive quarterback question looms for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Since Ben Roethlisberger's retirement in 2022, the lack of stability at the position has become a frustrating tradition for the organization that hasn't won a playoff game in a decade. This time around, there's an extra layer of déjà vu as the Steelers once again await a decision from Aaron Rodgers about his future.

In a league increasingly defined by turnovers and efficiency, linebackers who can process quickly, finish tackles, and take the football away carry premium value. That's precisely what the Washington Commanders should be looking for this offseason, especially with Bobby Wagner likely to retire or take his chances elsewhere in free agency. And that might just come at some stage during the 2026 NFL Draft.

In just his second year, Maye has led the Patriots to Super Bowl 60. He did so in a game that was played on the road, in front of a rambunctious crowd and in what wound up being a beautifully-wild snowstorm. But, what cemented this one as the stuff of legends was the decision Maye made on the game-sealing play.

Bryce has shown flashes of greatness this year against high level competition,

In 1985, Dan Marino arrived at Stanford Stadium as the undisputed future of football. He was the MVP in just his second season, a golden-armed titan who looked like he'd be making annual pilgrimages to the Super Bowl for the next fifteen years. Then he ran into Bill Walsh's West Coast Offense and a 49ers defense that turned his afternoon into a living nightmare. Marino never made it back. Not once. Remind you of anyone?

For 2026, Texas Tech lured perhaps the biggest -- and likely most expensive -- fish yet. Sorsby ranked No. 1 overall in ESPN's Portal rankings. He'll project as one of the top quarterbacks in the country next year, as he earned second-team All-Big 12 honors last year. Tech has earned a reputation for being one of the sport's biggest spenders; ESPN's Max Olson reported earlier this year that the Red Raiders spent more than $3 million on edge rusher David Bailey last year.
