Looking at switching to just one, so Dobyns or TFO? What are your opinions on either...

I have both and in my opinion Dobyns is the way to go. In fishing with both the build quality and sensitivity of the Dobyns rod is far superior to the TFO.

Dobyns. Awesome rods with a price point for everyone. The owner is kind of a tool though. Only kidding, I consider him a close friend, but that's not why I am saying go with Dobyns. Was using the rods long before we became friends.

Dobyns. All I own. Heading to Fork now for a few days. Probably going to pick up another one while there. 21 is just not enough.

Looking at the Sierras and Champion, I have both a couple Dobyns and a couple TFO, just want to go with one for my full lineup.

Another Dobyns Vote here. Hands down no question.
PS. you owe it to yourself to get at least 1 Champion Extreme HP either the 745 as a jig / texas rig or the 744 as a Texas rig rod. Some things just make life easier. Well that's my opinion anyway.

Just curious. Why go all in on one brand unless it's a sponsor deal? If so, Dobyns. Personally, I'm not married to any of them. Some rod manufacturers suit me better than others depending on application. Same for reels.
