Written: Write a hype article about who the next big superstar in the NSFL is. Must be at least 200 words

The walking rhyme is poised to take the league by storm and be the next big name in the NSFL. Darlane Farlane has by far the catchiest name in the NSFL, and will be known for more than just being a walking rhyme. As a speedy back he’ll outrun any defender in his way, and in a footrace, there aren’t many players who’d have a chance at beating Farlane. The back will be running behind a suspect offensive line, but with his explosiveness he’ll be able to make that line look better as he races by everyone on the field. An active, dazzling star in the making, Farlane will be a threat out of the backfield, and in the passing game should the defenders be foolish enough to give him the opportunity to catch the ball and start racing. He’ll help to elevate the Hawks offense, giving them a reliable running game to help take the pressure off Kyubee. The only thing catchy about this man is his name, as no defender will catch him on his way to the end zone. Farlane has a huge chance to turn into the next top back in the league, poised to make an impact early with his explosiveness even behind a line that I wouldn’t bet on.

Godfrey King has all the makings of the next big thing. The defensive tackle out of Temple University is an interior rusher with a skill set well beyond his years. Part of what makes him so great is the work ethic he shows both on and off the field. It was this work ethic that made him a captain at Temple his Junior and Senior years. In a league that has been waiting for players like him, King is sure to turn heads this year at the draft, with many projecting him to go very early.

Many would point to his less than ideal number of tackles his senior year as a possible concern, but Godfrey sees it in a different light. "Did I break any records in tackles senior year? No. But I'm happy because that means our other guys were making plays, and I think I had a big part in that. I try my best to be a leader and someone all of the guys on the team can come to, and I think our defense was really good last year, and that I did a lot to help with that." While King's impact is immeasurable, the defensive stats speak for themselves. Temple was 3rd in the FBS last year in run defense.

Godfrey King is certainly one to be watching out for, and he is a prime prospect to take the league by storm this upcoming season.

While he's not even in the league yet, many scouts are excited about the play they've been seeing from Clifford Rove, University of Michigan starting Quarterback. Intelligence for the game is an extremely valuable attribute for a quarterback to have, and Rove has it in droves (pardon the rhyme). Rove sees the field like few others, enabling him to lead his teams' core of wide receivers to catches and touchdowns with apparent ease. While Rove is not yet at the elite level needed to lock up a starting job in the NSFL, teams will definitely be looking at him as a player who will develop quickly into a franchise QB. What Rove lacks in flashy play style he more than makes up for in his clear precision passing and ability to make reads. That being said, Rove is starting out with many tools which will help him succeed in this league, and should be remembered as one of the greats in the history books if he keeps on developing the way he has been. We'll all be looking to see what Rove does his senior of college ball, and look forward to him turning heads both at the S3 draft and on the field next season.

Everyone drafted this year wants to be the next big thing, why play football if you don't want to be the best? Kyle Cobb, the rookie runningback out of Ball State college wants to prove he is the best player the nsfl will ever see. Kyle is a bit disappointed in his draft day fall down the board, but Las Vegas used their first ever rookie draft pick on him. The Legion saw his talent, and now they, along with Cobb want to show everyone else what he can do best. Some scouts think the MAC is a week football conference, but it still produces high quality players. Kyle Cobb is about to be another one. As a runningback, Kyle is at the top of his position, let alone in the rest of the positions in football. His speed is up there in this rookie class, and he's a very agile to go along with his wheels. Carrying the rock, Cobb will blow through defensive lines before they even see it coming. After that, Kyle will top out on his speed and make a fool of any team's secondary. We haven't even talked about what Kyle Cobb can do better than any other runningback, and that's catch the ball. Kyle has made himself known for his receiving ability, and he will show everyone around the league why he deserves his spot. Catching and carrying are the two most important things in football, and Cobb can do both extremely well. Kyle's yardage and touchdowns in his rookie year should prove why he will be the next best thing. Maybe the biggest thing football has ever seen.

Now, we all know about how John Canton was poised to be a mid round steal, and had made promises to light up the league. But, we also know that last season was a bit of a let down as well. Canton recently came back from an unannounced and unexpected leave of absence leaving many to wonder if would hand up the cleats after just one season. But Canton has assured reporters that his hiatus was one of personal reasons and that he expects to come back ready to be a force on the Sabercats' defence.

Now, in light of all this, we have heard that Canton has spent the off-season working with a new defensive backs trainer, and is looking to change up his game. We're excited to see if these new skills and techniques translate to the field this season. Canton looks to avoid the "sophomore slump" and become the breakout corner the Sabercats need to propel them into the post season.

Canton has recently made significant strides in practice and showed his efforts in the preseason, logging 13 tackles, 1 pass defensed, 1 interception, and 1 forced fumble. Get your tickets and hop aboard now, because this hype train is leaving the station and headed off the rails.

As a player that keeps his head down and puts in work for his own team most of the time it is hard to notice the breakout players on other teams. However, there is one player in the Outlaws locker room that is impossible not to notice. That would be the future breakout player that is wide receiver C.A. Chess. Chess is a man that will undoubtedly play a huge role in the offense for the Outlaws this year and you can tell that he is getting ready to shoulder the load. Chess comes in early and leaves late, he has the work ethic and natural talent to be a star in the league. You can even find him working with fellow rookie wide out Dustin Evans trying to improve his game as well as helping Evans to improve his own game. Chess is going to be the newest and biggest thing the league has seen since Josh Garden. Chess has all the tools to become the next breakout player in the NSFL and if he keeps up the hard work there is no way that he doesn't become the next greatest thing the league has seen. Be prepared to hear the name Chess a lot in the upcoming season.

Is Boss Tweed due for a breakout season this year? Many people think so as evidence by his popularity in fantasy drafts this season. Tweed's rookie season was not statistically spectacular as he finished with 547 yards and 1 touchdown averaging 3.7 yards per carry. In Season 2's preseason, Tweed finished with 382 yards and 2 touchdowns averaging 3.9 yards per carry. Using Tweed's per game averages from the preseason, he would be projected to rush for 1337 yards and 7 touchdowns during Season 2, both of which would surpass the numbers that Bubba Nuck produced during his MVP season in Season 1. A four game sample size is not enough to make a truly accurate projection for Tweed's production, but we can at least see he is projected to have a much bigger season this year than he did last year. A big reason for this is Tweed's larger role in the Yeti's offense. The Yeti's running backs split carries three ways in Season 1 but Tweed has been receiving a lead back workload in the preseason so far. The Yeti's coaches have said that they were very impressed by Tweed's hard work during the off-season and they believe he is ready for a large role. Opposing players have commented that Tweed seems much more fast and athletic this year than he was last year, which has played a big role in his success so far this preseason. If Tweed continues his preseason success, he could blossom not only into one of the league's top running backs but potentially even into an MVP candidate.

Paul DiMirio is on the cusp of greatness. As the #2 target on the Philly Liberty, he gets a lot of the short pass work and that could lead to a lot of touchdowns this season. With Fox putting up a lot of yards in the preseason, there should be a lot of scoring opportunities and as Jameis's favorite target, Paul should be able to capitalize on that. Paul is a good receiver, but he’s thrown a couple useful blocks as well. With a new offensive line, he’ll be out on the field in both roles very often. By season's end, we could see him assume the mantle of #1 tight end, dethroning Maddox and keeping George Wright Jr. and Break Bottles in the rear view mirror.

Not only is Paul primed for a breakout season, reports from his teammates indicate he's a leader in the locker room. As one of the rookies who played in S1 prospect games, he's had more time on the field than most of the newer players in Philly and it shows in both his character and on the field. Philly was lucky to draft him in the late third round, and it can only pay dividends in the future.
