Wrote a article as we're approaching the quarterpole of the NFL (more so if you count preseason).

Which players surprised even the best of analysts?

Hey Colin,

I just completed a new article on my beloved Blue Devils and the season outlook for the team. I list every possible contributor on the team, and what their potential is for the new season. If you have a chance, please give it a look. Thanks!

This article was originally published in support of Relay for Life. If you have read this before, then I apologize, but please considering donating at least $1 to Make a Wish in the memory of Josiah Herring. In light of several recent events I felt compelled to revisit cancer awareness and have not had the time for a new article. I Promise to have a new article out soon in support of the cause.

Thank you everyone!
