The top 300 most impactful players after Week 7
Here are our updated rankings of the 300 most impactful players in college football.
This is not a NFL draft hot board nor a list of the 300 most talented players. Talent certainly is taken into account, 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.
The rankings were compiled by On3 staffers Gerry Hamilton, Mike Huguenin, Charles Power and Matt Zenitz.
