Bryan Knowles: Welcome back to our preseason series of over/under reviews, as we flip over to the AFC, where all the good teams are!. That’s a slight exaggeration, but eight of our top 12 teams in projected DVOA play in the AFC. While the 49ers, Lions, Packers and Cowboys have a fairly clear road to a playoff berth of some description, one of the projected powerhouses in the AFC is going to have to stay home, even if we’re 100% right about everything. And three of those eight teams play in the division we have for you today, the AFC East!

Our fantasy football rankers are some of the best in the business, but that doesn’t mean they always agree. Twice a week, our rankers will highlight some names they are furthest from the staff consensus fantasy rankings on and explain why you should either be targeting those players or steering clear in your 2024 drafts.

It's been a rough start to a career for Malachi Nelson, who went to USC last year as a 5-star prospect and the seeming heir to Lincoln Riley's offense upon Caleb Williams's departure, but has since transferred to Boise State after being beat out by Miller Moss in Los Angeles and has now lost yet another position battle at his new school. Nelson was part of the group of 2023 quarterbacks that included Arch Manning, Nico Iamaleava, Dante Moore and Jackson Arnold, but he's clearly a pretty distant fifth right now.

It’s been a good summer for Billy Napier and the rest of Florida football’s recruiting staff.
Entering June, Florida had just four players under verbal commitment and ranked in the 50s nationally. A surge over the past two months has Florida moving up every major recruiting rankings list in the country, however.
Most recently, four-star Miami Booker T. Washington cornerback Ben Hanks Jr. entered the fold, which led to at least a 10-spot jump on multiple lists.
The Gators surged from No. 43 to No. 30 on the 247Sports team rankings, passing three SEC teams among others. The On3 recruiting rankings are even...

SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) — Expectations are growing in Syracuse, where Orange football is undergoing a fresh start under Fran Brown, who is already cashing in on his reputation as one of the nation’s top recruiters. Hired in December to replace Dino Babers, the former Georgia defensive backs coach has persuaded key players to stay put and assembled the program’s highest-rated recruiting class since rankings have been compiled. He also lured a group of high-profile transfers, including former Ohio State quarterback Kyle McCord and ex-Texas A&M defensive lineman Fadil Diggs. “I want to make sure that Syracuse gets back to where they belong, where it was,” Brown said. “You’re going back to Jim Brown, Ernie Davis, Floyd Little, Larry Csonka, all those guys that played. I want to get back to those same eras. You had (quarterback) Donavan McNabb, (receiver) Marvin Harrison, (defensive end) Dwight Freeney, (safety) Donovin Darius. All those guys are important to me.” The Orange faltered under Babers, who was never able to recreate the success he enjoyed during a 10-3 finish in 2018. He was fired one game short of completing his eighth season, and finished with a 41-55 record, and 20-45 in conference play.

Deion Sanders is not afraid to speak out about the potential Colorado has ahead of the 2024 college football season. In fact, he seems fairly confident the Buffaloes are going to be much improved after struggling down the stretch last year — losing eight of their last 10 games. On Saturday, Sanders issued a warning to Colorado opponents when asked about the revamped pass defense.

Deion Sanders sends bold warning to Colorado opponents ahead of 2024 season

In the latest edition of “What’s Going on in Boulder Today?” the Colorado Buffaloes and head coach Deion Sanders have lost their only special teams coach.
According to multiple reports but first reported by Sports Illustrated, the Colorado Buffaloes recently saw quality control analyst Trevor Reilly leave the program. Usually, the loss of a quality control analyst would not be of note.
However, Reilly was Colorado’s quality control analyst for special teams and was the only coaching staff member whose sole focus was special teams. According to Bill Connelly’s SP+, the Buffaloes had the nation’s 73rd-best special teams unit last year.
This season, the Buffaloes will look to bounce back from a 4-8 record in Sanders’ first season as head coach in Boulder. Nebraska will host Colorado at Memorial Stadium on Saturday, Sept. 7 at 6:30 p.m. CT.
