  "account": "College fantasy football analyst Eric Froton provides a preview for Week 2 of the CFF season. Rising WR Gavin Freeman from Baylor showcased his value in Baylor's 17-16 loss to Auburn, accounting for 45.6% of Louis Lagway's 333 passing yards with 12 receptions, 154 yards, and a touchdown. Freeman's strong performance makes him an aggressive waiver add, with his target ceiling higher than anticipated.\n\nNebraska freshman RB Jamal Rule made an impact against Ohio, rushing for 122 yards and two touchdowns on 15 carries, while also catching two passes for 47 yards and a score. Rule's performance, which earned him Big Ten Freshman of the Week honors, suggests he's more than a speculative freshman stash and should be considered a top Power Four waiver addition.\n\nBYU WR Legend Glasker made a bold impression in BYU's 63-7 victory over Utah Tech. Glasker caught three passes for 65 yards and two touchdowns while adding a nine-yard rushing score. His explosive open-field ability and high graduation rate make him a valuable CFF target, despite the fact that his performance may not be sustainable.\n\nPenn State WR Koby Howard had a breakout performance against Marshall, being targeted on 44.4% of his routes and generating 9.47 yards per route run. His 16.6-yard aDOT and 99.0 PFF receiving grade on intermediate throws highlight his potential as a weekly CFF starter. HC Matt Campbell's praise and increased role suggest Howard is trending toward CFF relevance.",
