It’s still far too early to be accurate when projecting draft eligible players, but we do anyway, despite the dramatic changes that will occur during the upcoming season, leaving our preliminary rankings way off. It’s interesting to see how the rankings do change, and that’s probably the main reason why I personally begin to rank prospects this early.
