    What a terrible list.

    The only ones I agree with are Lee from USC and the RBs for offense. Clowney and Te'o for defense. The rest are a joke.
  • sleeper
    The fact that John Simon isn't on this list invalidates the whole list.

    Taj Boyd over Johnny Manziel or Collin Klein? Eh. Stedman Bailey with 21 receiving TD's doesn't make it but Williams does? Similar teams, same conference, Bailey with better numbers?

    C.J. Mosley first team? No way.

    This alone devalues the entire list, IMO

    Boyd is a better quarterback than both of those guys. Amazing how easily some simple minded people can be swayed by ESPN.
  • End of Line
    C.J. Mosley? Sheesh.
  • vball10set
    lol, amazing how one poster thinks his opinion is the only one worth a shit :rolleyes:

    I value your opinion. Its my opinion that Boyd is a better quarterback than the other two. :emoticon:
  • sjmvsfscs08
    Eifert over Ertz would be my only complaint.

    Fair enough. :without the sarcasm:

    Agreed.

    I know you're an ND fan, but Ertz numbers were quite a bit better than Eifert.
  • Mooney44Cards
    Oklahoma State's kicker? What is that about?

    Caleb Sturgis from Florida was 3/3 from 50+ yards, and 23/27 overall, a higher percentage than the OSU kicker who was only 23/29.

    edit: Plus, Sturgis was basically Florida's entire offense since Florida blows on that side of the ball.

    There should be a "utility" spot on the AA teams. Tavon Austin, Dri Archer, or DeAnthony Thomas.

    Quit with the number-humping already. TE are a mix between an OL and a WR, stats give you half of the story. Regardless, Eifert is the best receiving TE in the country.

    My god, relax. Why do you take everything as an assault on ND? Ertz and Eifert are both good TE's. Of course you think Eifert is the best, and that's ok, but there's nothing to back that up, it's just your opinion.

    There's nothing to back it up? Are you sure about that?

    Ertz had a really good season and is deserving of any accolades he gets. But to say there is nothing backing up Eifert as being better is inaccurate.
