If the season ended today, how would the first round of your dynasty rookie draft look? The Devy Dojo is putting it to the test. Sensei and Shifu walk pick by pick through a 12-player Superflex mock — resetting the board through the first month of the season. From John Mateer’s meteoric rise (and sudden injury news), to Jonah Coleman powering Washington, Jordyn Tyson staking his WR1 claim, and Justice Haynes proving the rumors of his demise were overblown — this class is already shifting fast. We’re talking risers, fallers, and the value plays you need to keep an eye on if you want to stay ahead of your league. Who’s worth the 1.01 today? Who’s sliding out of range? And what does it mean for your dynasty portfolio going forward?Hit play, step into the Dojo, and see how the board looks through today’s lens.
This week in the Devy Dojo, we’re tackling one of the toughest questions in the game: when a star QB stumbles, do you buy the dip… or cut bait before things get worse? From DJ Lagway’s nightmare against LSU to Arch Manning’s shaky mechanics, we’re breaking down whether these slow starts are buying opportunities or red flags. We’ll also cover Garrett Nussmeier, LaNorris Sellers, Sam Leavitt, and Drew Allar — analyzing their PFF data, tape notes, and where the market is moving.Then we shift gears into listener-submitted trades. You sent in your best (and boldest) Devy deals, and we’ll tell you where the value lies. Who won, who lost, and what you can learn to sharpen your own trade strategy.Welcome back to the Dojo — where scouting meets game theory. 🥋0:00 🎬 - Intro02:16 📊 - Current State of Devy06:38 🐊 - What do you do with DJ Lagway?12:31 👑 - Arch Manning: Not the Prince who was promised.20:33 🚀 - Garrett Nussmeier: Failure to launch28:13 🐓 - LaNorris Sellers: Is he a 2027 draft guy now?34:15 ❌ - Why Offenses Are Struggling.36:24 💬 - User Submitted Trades Discussion38:35 🔄 - Trade: Josh Hoover for Jaden Greathouse + Devy Combined 5th41:20 🔄 - Trade: CJ Baxter for Carnell Tate + RJ Harvey44:30 🔄 - Trade: Nussmeier and Anderson for Arch Manning45:50 🔄 - Trade: Caden Durham for Nate Frazier + Fernando Mendoza + Eugene Wilson III47:50 🔄 - Trade: Le'Veon Moss for Combined Devy 5th + Combined Devy 6th49:20 🔄 - Trade: Bo Jackson + 6th round Supplemental for Jordan Addison + 9th Round Supplemental52:10 🔄 - Trade: TJ Moore for Mario Craraver + Rocco Becht55:10 🔄 - Trade: Drew Allar for Carson Beck + Justice Haynes59:03 🔄 - Trade: Arch Manning for JKS59:55 🔄 - Trade: Jeremiah Smith + for Jared Goff + Jamarr Chase1:02:30 🔄 - Trade: Makai Lemon and Bryant Wesco for Garrett Wilson1:03:45 🔄 - Trade: DJ Lagway for Russell Wilson + Devy Combined 2nd1:04:55 🔄 - Trade: Bo Nix for John Mateer, James Connor + 2026 Combined 1st1:06:40 🔄 - Trade: LaNorris Sellers + Nyck Harbor for Dylan Raiola + Cam Coleman1:07:50 🔄 - Trade: Ryan Williams for Jared Goff + Nick Singleton1:08:39 🔄 - Trade: Zachariah Branch for Isaac Brown1:08:50 🔄 - Trade: Combined third for Michael Trigg1:09:10 🔄 - Trade: Harlem Barry + Combined 2027 1st for Chase Brown + 2026 Combined 1st 1:09:35 🔄 - Trade: Arch Manning for JKS1:09:49 🔄 - Trade: DJ Lagway for John Mateer + Isaac Brown 1:10:46 📝 - Closing Remarks 1:11:24 🥋 - Outro #devydojo #devy #cfb #dynasty #fantasyfootball
