CBS Sports: College Football Top 100 Players of 2024

We are in the thick of it on the college football calendar. Spring football is finished for some teams and will wrap up in the next couple of weeks for others. The transfer portal opens April 16. The NFL Draft, our final goodbye to the college football stars of the last few seasons, looms.
There's a sense of change in the air (and angst, for a lot of coaches and NIL collectives). It was in that spirit that we decided it was time to do some spring cleaning of the final 2023 rankings of the top 101 players in college football. A majority of those players, including nine of the top 10, are off to the NFL.
It's time for a new era. Here's our spring version of the top 100 college football players for the 2024 season.
quote:
1. Colorado CB Travis Hunter
Former No. 1 overall recruit Travis Hunter leads my list as the top overall player in the country entering the 2024 season. He is a generational player and, if he took fewer snaps offensively at wide receiver, would be even more effective for Colorado's defense. Hunter missed a handful of games after taking a cheap shot in the Colorado State game and still notched 1,044 snaps. He had seven games with more than 100 snaps, doing so as a two-way player. That is more than two seasons worth of reps for the typical defender.
quote:
2. Tennessee EDGE James Pearce Jr.
Pearce led the SEC in sacks with 10 for his second season at Tennessee, adding 53 pressures
quote:
3. Michigan DT Mason Graham
Graham was a disruptive presence in 2023, especially when it counted against the toughest competition.
quote:
4. Colorado QB Shedeur Sanders
Sanders is my current pick to go first overall in the 2025 NFL Draft. He's also, in my opinion, the best quarterback in college football entering the 2024 season.
quote:
5. Missouri WR Luther Burden
6. LSU OT Will Campbell
The top offensive tackle in the country
7. Alabama QB Jalen Milroe
8. Georgia QB Carson Beck
9. Oklahoma State RB Ollie Gordon II
10. Kelvin Banks OT Texas
rest of the list
15

Why are we pretending Sheduer Sanders is a generational player, Vince Young had a better understanding of coverage recognition

Jalen Milroe at #7???
Hahahahahahaha
Hahahahahahaha

What?
Jalen Milroe is definitively NOT the 7th best player in college football.

He’s not the 7th best player on his own team.

This list is more “players I’ve heard of, 2024”.

Ah. Article written by Blake Brockermeyer who's brother figures to be the center for Milroe. Explains the stupid ranking.

Looking at that list and depending on who drafts #1 overall I could see Will Campbell going #1 overall as top LT on the board

4. Colorado QB Shedeur Sanders
This is laughable.
Posted on 4/15/24 at 12:39 pm to RLDSC FAN
The guy has close to 10 TE’s in his list. I don’t know enough to say if he’s wrong one way or the other, but I certainly disagree with the top of his list.

The way he came on in the back half of the year was downright scary at times. There's no reason to believe he won't continue to progress (other than Bama having all the staff/player turnover) and be one of the best players in the country.
Just look at Jaden's progression from year 1 to year 2 starting in the SEC.

Surprised Tre Wilson didn't make it he's gonna have a good year for Florida.

So Colorado has 2 of the Top 4 and will once again finish in last place at their new place.

Is Deion really gonna dictate which NFL teams can draft his players?
Seems like that might hurt them in the draft if other teams take them off the board because the draft is so unpredictable

He got benched after the UT game, threw for over 260 yards once last season, sacked 44 times, 43rd in total passing.
He is the only player in the last 20 years to get sacked 4+ times in 5 consecutive games.
He threw for a combined 308 yards against Michigan and UGA.
He's not a good quarterback if we are comparing to the top ones in the country.
