Recruits' ratings in the CJF era (long)

[We Are . . .]

I had a a little time on my hands yesterday (retirement will do that for you) and was curious about how the 2019 class stacked up position-by-position with CJF's previous classes. Here's a two- deep for each position based on the 247 ratings. 2019 recruits are in bold. (Disclaimers: I did not include BOB's 2014 recruits, only those who committed after CJF was hired. I also listed current/former players according to their current/last position played. 2019 recruits are listed by their projected positions. Sorry in advance for any mistakes.)

Shorter at wr?

I'm not sure why you are missing Shorter and Freiermuth here. If you are going to the 2-deep Freiermuth is the starter.

What about YGM?

An aside, next season Simmons is a guy who is at the ‘boom or bust’ phase of his career.

 

[MJG-90]

Are you using the composite rating? You are missing a lot of players. Clifford was higher rated than both of the new QB's.

I still feel bad for Nana . Glad he and Devyn are reunited though.

You're correct. He should be #1. I'll edit the list. Thank you.

See above re: Shorter. Friermuth and Kuntz were both rated higher than the guys I listed. I'll edit and correct. Thank you.

YGM is another one who slipped past me. Thanks.

Dang. Another correction. Thanks.

You guys are good.

Hey man, nobody is perfect. Well, except for me, I am perfect. But don't sweat it.
