804. . . . Cam Akers. 5. player

One of these days, that constant narrative about the Florida State Seminoles being back is actually going to be real. Cam Akers was one of the bright spots in 2019, but he had his issues too. He fumbled more often than you want a running back to do so, but he also contributed a 2000-yard rushing season and 21 rushing touchdowns to the cause.

Add that to the 23 receptions, the 247 receiving yards, and the two receiving touchdowns he added out of the backfield, and you can see why this five-foot-ten, 214-pound prospect has NFL scouts interested.

812. . . . J.K. Dobbins. 6. player

There aren’t too many things in college football that are cooler than the Ohio State Buckeyes. Now, if you’re a Michigan Wolverines fan, you’ll obviously disagree with that, but if you don’t have a dog in the fight, come on.

Ohio State gets the horses in every recruiting class. They field all of this pro talent. There’s the grey helmet with the helmet stickers, all of that history, and ‘The Shoe’.

Ohio State is one of those programs that secretly make you watch, even if you’re not a fan, and in 2019, that didn’t change as the Buckeyes ran through everyone, except Clemson.

Part of that charge was spearheaded by the five-foot-eleven, 210-pound J.K. Dobbins. In 2019, he averaged five yards per rush while racking up 1,144 yards. He caught 30 passes for 225 yards, and he scored 18 total touchdowns. Keep an eye on him as he’s now headed to the greener pastures of the NFL.
