CM Gridiron | Top 15 Rankings by Position | Athletes
Presented By: Yappy Hour of Albertville
Our CM Gridiron Top Rankings by Position continue with Athletes. We expanded this category to a Top 15 because of the number of versatile playmakers across our coverage area that impact the game in multiple ways.
These rankings are a rough draft heading into the summer and will likely change as we continue evaluating players throughout camps, workouts, and summer competitions. These rankings will continue to be updated throughout the offseason and during the season. They will also be one of the factors used in determining the 50 players selected to the All-CM Gridiron Team at the end of the season.
We cover a large area, and while we work hard to evaluate as many players as possible, we know there is always a chance we may miss someone. If you know of a player you feel deserves consideration, feel free to comment their name, position, and school and we will check them out.
Please keep things positive. This is meant to be something fun that brings recognition to athletes across our coverage area. There is no need to put down other players or bring negativity into the comments. Everyone has different opinions, and these are simply CM Gridiron’s rankings.
