Leaving school for NFL
Eleby announced Tuesday via his personal Twitter account that he will forgo his remaining eligibility at Western Michigan to enter the 2022 NFL Draft.
ANALYSIS
A fourth-year redshirt sophomore this past season, Eleby had the option of sticking around in Kalamazoo for two more years, but he'll instead take his talents to the next level. He emerged as a full-time starter during Western Michigan's abbreviated six-game 2020 campaign and built on that season in 2021. Over 13 games this past fall, Eleby completed 63.2 percent of his attempts for 3,277 yards and a 23:6 TD:INT while adding six scores on the ground. Eleby's departure leaves true freshman Jack Salopek as the next man up on the depth chart, but don't be surprised if Western Michigan looks to the transfer portal to provide the team with a more experienced option under center.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2021
2020
2019
Eleby returns after leading the MAC in touchdown passes (18) and YPA (11.2) in six games, his first as the full-time starter. He loses top option D’Wayne Eskridge, but Jaylen Hall (14 YPT) and Skyy Moore (10.5 YPT) have already proven to have a strong rapport with Eleby. The 215-pound Eleby isn’t much of a runner (34 rushes, 38 yards) but he’s effective down near the goal line when called upon, having scored four times last season. Eleby’s passing production should be among the nation’s best, and some modest rushing numbers helps make him a QB2 target.
