PFF Top 101 Players for 2015

someone has done an interesting analysis of this year's PFF top 101 players, looking at how many were elite recruits entering college, and what schools & conferences had the most among the top 101 players.  Quite interesting:

One of the things that jumped out at me was how many of the guys at the top of the list -- the best of the best in football -- arrived in college as unheralded recruits.

If you look at the top six names of the list -- Aaron Donald, Antonio Brown, Luke Kuechly, Rob Gronkowski, J.J. Watt and Khalil Mack -- only Gronk was ranked as a "four-star" prospect of higher. Donald and Kuechly were three-star guys. Watt and Mack were two-stars and Brown was a zero star.

I charted the Top 101 by recruiting rankings (using the 247 Sports composite model when available and if the player came out before that used Rivals and found the following:

10 players were rated as 5-stars.

24 players were rated as 4-stars.

32 players were rated as 3-stars.

17 players were rated as 2-stars.

8 players were rated as 0-stars.
