It's interesting to me how they update the list at least 3 times in the offseason. The players aren't even playing games ESPN is basing there performance of 40's and camps were the players are basically doing 7 on 7. Wait till they get pads on again till they start ranking them from the end of last football season
To preface, Scout, Rivals, and 247 all also updated their ratings multiple times during the offseason, so it isn't just ESPN that is. Also, they only rerank the players they got to see at camps or practices during the offseason for the most part. There is alot more to a prospect than what one can see on tape, and seeing a player in person helps differentiate that player from a certain player of near equal caliber if they both have been seen by the same analyst. The vast amount of what goes into ranking the players comes from what they do in pads, but the tiny nuances that separate players and the amount players change in the offseason in the several months between one season and another is definitely means for updating the rankings multiple times before the season starts.
