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.

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.

Boyd is a better quarterback than both of those guys. Amazing how easily some simple minded people can be swayed by ESPN.

Eifert over Ertz would be my only complaint.

I know you're an ND fan, but Ertz numbers were quite a bit better than Eifert.sjmvsfscs08;1331252 wrote:Eifert over Ertz would be my only complaint.

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.se-alum;1331290 wrote:I know you're an ND fan, but Ertz numbers were quite a bit better than Eifert.

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.sjmvsfscs08;1331360 wrote:Quit with the number-humping already.

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.
