The top 300 most impactful players after Week 13

Here are our updated rankings of the 300 most impactful players in college football.

This is not a NFL draft hot board nor simply a list of the 300 most talented players. Talent certainly is considered, but there are numerous variables and emphasis is placed on players having the most notable on-field impact; that is one reason it is skill position-heavy. The rankings are fluid and change weekly.

One note: Injured players are not listed (that means that, among others, USC WR Drake London, Texas RB Bijan Robinson and Notre Dame S Kyle Hamilton are not listed).

The rankings of the most impactful players are done by On3’s Mike Huguenin, Charles Power and Matt Zenitz. The rankings will be updated once more, following the CFP and all the bowls.
