Every now and then, I have the opportunity to participate in an Athlon roundtable of sorts. They were good enough to reach out to me again to participate in this year's Top 15 ACC players poll. Sam Werner of the Post-Gazette also was included as well.
These things are generally part crap shoot and part going off of what certain players did last year. Below was the list I managed to put together:
| Rank | Player |
| 1 | James Conner, RB, Pitt |
| 2 | Deshaun Watson, QB, Clemson |
| 3 | Jalen Ramsey, S, Florida State |
| 4 | Kendall Fuller, CB, Virginia Tech |
| 5 | Tyler Boyd, WR, Pitt |
| 6 | Justin Thomas, QB, Georgia Tech |
| 7 | Dalvin Cook, RB, Florida State |
| 8 | Marquise Williams, QB, North Carolina |
| 9 | Everett Golson, QB, Florida State |
| 10 | Jeremy Cash, S, Duke |
| 11 | Brad Kaaya, QB, Miami |
| 12 | Landon Turner, G, North Carolina |
| 13 | Quin Blanding, S, Virginia |
| 14 | Dadi Nicolas, DE, Virginia Tech |
| 15 | Mike Williams, WR, Clemson |
So, I've got James Conner first and Tyler Boyd fifth.
