Week 16 Dynasty Rankings: Updated Devy and Superflex formats

If you already find yourself enamored with the deep-dive of dynasty fantasy football, joining a Devy league is the natural progression for fantasy fanatics. Player values fluctuate as the college football weeks fly by, making our updated Week 16 1QB and Superflex Devy rankings for dynasty leagues the most comprehensive set of rankings to date.

What’s the difference between Devy and dynasty rankings?

I know some of you ask, “What is Devy fantasy football?” and how does it differ from regular dynasty rankings? Devy is a niche dynasty fantasy football game that incorporates the drafting of current college football prospects even before entering their names into the NFL Draft. Current college football players and incoming freshmen are typically eligible to be drafted in Devy drafts. However, each league is slightly different, and you could stumble across some Devy rankings with top high-school prospects included.

As you can see in our updated dynasty rankings table going into Week 16, we offer both 1QB and Superflex Devy dynasty rankings for an easier understanding of each player’s value. Even though 1QB is the more traditional form of fantasy football, our updated Devy rankings are also useful in the ever-growing Superflex format. With the ability to choose between starting a quarterback or a skill-position player, quarterbacks are often valued much higher in our Superflex rankings.

Week 15 Devy Wrap-Up

Before we get to the highly-anticipated slate of conference championships in Week 16, let’s take a look at the top Devy performances from Week 15. Our Week 16 dynasty rankings take both recent production and long-term outlook into account.

Kyle Pitts sits, UNC’s running backs shine in Week 15

The biggest storyline of Week 15 was Florida’s decision to sit superstar tight end, Kyle Pitts. Instead of playing LSU at full-strength, Gators head coach Dan Mullen seemingly chose to rest Pitts for the SEC Championship game. With Florida losing 37-34 to a struggling LSU, that decision ultimately backfired in their faces. Florida still has an outside shot at a College Football Playoff spot if they can upset top-ranked Alabama this weekend. The SEC Championship Game, however, isn’t necessarily a win-and-in situation for the Gators.

As far as on-field play, there were plenty of options to choose from. No matter where we end, we must begin with the UNC backfield. North Carolina’s running back duo of Javonte Williams and Michael Carter combined for 544 rushing yards and five touchdowns. Miami’s defense couldn’t stop either player on the ground, and it’s easy to understand why both running backs are rising up our updated Week 16 1QB and Superflex Devy rankings for dynasty leagues.

Devonta Smith: 2020 Heisman frontrunner?

I know we talk about him every week, but how can we not mention Alabama wide receiver Devonta Smith? Even on a day when he finished with modest receiving numbers, the potential Heisman Trophy frontrunner finds a way to make an impact. Smith finished with only 22 receiving yards in Week 15, but his sensational 84-yard punt return in the first quarter gave Alabama a lead they wouldn’t relinquish.

With Florida quarterback Kyle Trask throwing two interceptions in their loss to LSU, the 2020 Heisman Trophy race is wide open. Another outstanding performance for Smith on Saturday could wrap the award up. Considering a wide receiver hasn’t won the award since Desmond Howard back in 1991, that would be a pretty substantial upset. But if 2020 has taught us anything, it’s to expect the unexpected.
